| We gained our original experience in dynamic simulation for process and process control-system design during employment with major oil and chemicals companies, such as BP. Since
our formation in 1993, we have undertaken for clients many dynamic
modelling and simulation studies to support process and process control
system design. Project working arrangements have included both studies carried out entirely at our premises, and studies carried out entirely at client's premises - with the dynamic simulation studies and the results an integral part of the ongoing process and control-system design and development.
The modelling, simulation engineering and control-system performance studies were undertaken ourselves, or working with our associates to combine the necessary modelling and engineering skills according to scope.
Simulation engineering was carried out in Simulink®. Documented test-case results and completed simulations with KHACE Embedded Technology
technology were delivered to the client under license for archive, for
reference and for continued use and development by the client. Examples
include:
- Steam Systems: Boilers, HRSGs, site-wide distribution systems and consumers
- Compressors: Air, Gas, LNG (Propane & MR), and associated controls and plant.
- Oil Production Separation: Oil/gas/Water, conventional and novel designs
- Slug-catchers: Modelling and dynamic analysis.
- Reaction Processes: A variety of chemical reaction-process plant
- Exhaust/Waste Gas Treatment: Especially for Calciners.
- Water Treatment Plant: Potable wate treatment plant modelling and dynamic
simulation.
Training
Training courses covering the modelling basis, use and extension of the simulation models for end-users are also supplied on request. Training can be carried out in the UK, or at client premises. For example: in May 2000 we carried out
'in-house' MATLAB & Simulink training
for a group of Engineers in BP. Clients of our simulation services can
optionally receive training for their engineers in the use of the simulation
models developed for their processes. |
