Simulation of the gas fractionating unit of depropanization system and development of a computer training software

Abstract

Abstract One of the promising and topical directions for improving the quality and safety of control of technological facilities is the use of tools that allow simulating technological processes and control systems on a computer before entering a real production facility. Two main tasks are solved here: personnel training and selection of effective technological modes. This article discusses the creation of a computer simulator complex for the depropanization unit of a gas fractionation plant in Unisim, which in turn should provide practical training for future specialists in the safe conduct of the technological process, thanks to an accurate mathematical model of the depropanization process. It will also help improve skills for quick response and prevention of an emergency. The decision to create a computer training complex arose in connection with the need to train personnel, improve their skills and experience. As a result of the research, a computer training sofware was developed based on the Unisim Design and Unisim Operations software package for training future operators and industrial operators to consolidate theoretical and practical knowledge.
