Hyprotech Releases HYSYS.Plant 2.0, A Major Update to the HYSYS Plant Lifecycle Solution.CALGARY, Canada--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 28, 1998--Hyprotech Ltd, the leading provider of integrated simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. for the processing industries, is pleased to announce the release of HYSYS.Plant(TM) 2.0. A revolutionary new approach to the detailed design component of the process plant lifecycle, this new software empowers engineering workplace change through concurrent steady-state and dynamic analysis which incorporate comprehensive process equipment geometry and performance information. With HYSYS.Plant, engineering teams can rapidly screen alternative steady-state designs, then analyze the top candidates dynamically, in the same simulation environment, to address key operability Operability is the ability to keep a system in a functioning and operating condition. In a computing systems environment with multiple systems this includes the ability of products, systems and business processes to work together to accomplish a common task such as finding and , control and safety issues. Once a final candidate is selected, the user can add detailed equipment information to develop high fidelity high fidelity n. The electronic reproduction of sound, especially from broadcast or recorded sources, with minimal distortion. high operator training simulators, examine detailed unit and plant-wide performance, and identify those operating conditions that are non-profitable and unsafe. Commenting on the HYSYS.Plant release, Steve Curl, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Hyprotech said, "By shortening the time it takes to accurately design new plants and improvements to existing facilities, this latest development from Hyprotech will enable our customers to significantly improve productivity, gain a competitive advantage and increase profitability." The key advanced technical capabilities of HYSYS.Plant include: Pressure-Flow Dynamics HYSYS.Plant uses a true pressure-flow dynamics model that enables the quick and accurate simulation of "real-world" dynamic behaviour. Dynamics Extensibility The user can seamlessly integrate proprietary or custom unit operations Unit operations A structure of logic used for synthesizing and analyzing processing schemes in the chemical and allied industries, in which the basic underlying concept is that all processing schemes can be composed from and decomposed into a series of into a HYSYS.Plant dynamic simulation Dynamic Simulation is similar to a physics engine, the technology used in many powerful computer graphics software programs, like 3ds Max, Maya, Lightwave, and many others to simulate physical characteristics. , extending its functionality, accuracy and fidelity. Three-Phase Distillation Perform three-phase distillation on any column tray, not just the decanter. Dynamic Simulation of Water-Hydrocarbon Systems Free water formation and decanting are fully supported. HYSYS.Plant is part of the HYSYS(TM) Plant Lifecycle Solution, a fully integrated simulation environment with powerful software tools and on-line applications that help companies improve productivity and profitability at all stages of plant design and operation. HYSYS supports concurrent engineering, state-of-the-art Microsoft COM (1) (Computer Output Microfilm) Creating microfilm or microfiche from the computer. A COM machine receives print-image output from the computer either online or via tape or disk and creates a film image of each page. technology (ActiveX, OLE Automation See COM automation. ) and will support open data exchange initiatives (including PDXI PDXI Process Data Exchange Institute and CAPE-OPEN) as they become available. The HYSYS family of work-process oriented applications: HYSYS.Concept(TM) Conceptual design HYSYS.Process(TM) Process Engineering Design (steady state and dynamics) HYSYS.Plant(TM) Detailed Plant Design/Rating (steady state and dynamics) HYSYS.RTO (Recovery Time Objective) The amount of time a computer system or application can stop functioning before it is considered intolerable to the enterprise. It can be computed to be from seconds to days, depending on how critical the application is to the organization. +(TM) Real-time Optimization HYSYS.OTS See Office of Thrift Supervision. +(TM) Operations Training System At the core of the HYSYS framework lies common thermodynamic ther·mo·dy·nam·ic adj. 1.

Of or relating to thermodynamics. property and object structures that support each of the work-process oriented applications. User inputs are supplied once, and are then available throughout the entire design activity. HYSYS offers users a virtual workspace for the development of conceptual process designs, process flowsheets and detailed plant designs, as well as for the deployment of this same process model in operator trainers, real-time optimization, and plant performance monitoring. By incorporating Microsoft COM technology and using a revolutionary component-based structure, HYSYS can be updated and extended to meet changing user requirements. For example, a custom interface can be created which allows operations personnel to access the power of a process simulation. Additionally the user can rapidly integrate existing 'in-house' simulation technology, 3rd party engineering applications and business work-process software into HYSYS, to maximize current and future software investments. As such, HYSYS is a future-proof Plant Lifecycle Solution. Don Mahoney, Vice President of Marketing and Customer Service at Hyprotech commented, "Hyprotech is the only process simulation supplier truly committed to delivering technology that wraps around our customers' work-processes, not around conveniently arranged mathematical solvers. HYSYS.Plant is a clear example of this novel approach. Our focus is fully on the work-process, concurrent engineering, and open systems that help our customers improve engineering workplace productivity and profitability." Hyprotech is in the business of helping the process industries improve operating performance, productivity and profitability throughout the plant lifecycle. With powerful, integrated capabilities to address design, automation, optimization and training, Hyprotech serves more than 1500 customers in over 80 countries around the world.
