Chemical/Process Engineering Flowchart Software

AI Thread Summary
Several software options are recommended for creating flowcharts of chemical plants, including ChemCAD, Microsoft Visio, Aspen Plus, and HYSYS. ChemCAD is noted for its simulation capabilities, while Visio is recognized for its schematic design features, though its symbol libraries may be limited. Aspen Plus and HYSYS are also suggested for their comprehensive process simulation tools. Users should consider their specific needs regarding symbols and simulation when choosing software. Overall, these programs provide a range of functionalities suitable for chemical process engineering flowchart creation.

chemcad u can try
 
Take a look at Microsoft's Visio too. I know it is good for schematics for things I do like oil and fuel systems. I haven't looked through all of their symbol libraries though.
 
u can use Microsoft's Visio but if u need simulator chemcad6 or aspen plus10.2 or hysis
 

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
