Invensys Unveils SimSci-Esscor VISUAL FLOW 5.3 Fluid Simulation Software

DECEMBER 08, 2009/PLANO, TEXAS – Invensys Operations Management, a global provider of technology systems, software solutions and consulting services to the process and manufacturing industries, today announced the newest release of the SimSci-Esscor® VISUAL FLOW fluid simulation software for the design and rating of flares and relief networks.

The VISUAL FLOW™ 5.3 software release enhances the overall robustness of the software and brings usability to the next level by integrating the solution with the SimSci-Esscor SIM4ME® Portal, and providing a Microsoft Excel® user interface for simulation. Linking with the SIM4ME Portal provides an added layer that enhances the return on investment in any model by extending its use to anyone who can use Excel spreadsheet software. The enhanced software not only improves the existing solver, it also adds four new solvers that the user can adapt to accurately model virtually any configuration in a plant. Regulatory compliance is enhanced by supporting Design Institute for Emergency Relief System (DIERS) guidelines.

“SimSci-Esscor VISUAL FLOW 5.3 enhances our existing offering, making it easier for our customers to achieve and utilize accurate information from their simulation models,” said Joseph McMullen, product manager, Invensys Operations Management. “Enhancements to the solution algorithm and DIERS compliance bring VISUAL FLOW to the forefront of fluid flow simulation. Coupling the rigor of the VISUAL FLOW solution with the SIM4ME Portal provides tremendous value to our customers by extending the use of simulation without requiring any training – they simply use Microsoft Excel.”

Invensys Process Systems Unveils PRO/II 8.2 Simulation Software

– New Version of Steady-State Simulation Improves Chemical Processes – JULY 15, 2008/PLANO, TEXAS – Invensys Process Systems (IPS), a global technology, software and consulting firm, has released the newest version of SimSci-Esscor’s PRO/II software, a steady-state process simulator used to design, analyze and improve chemical processes. In addition to the numerous infrastructure upgrades and enhancements that address the emerging needs of the hydrocarbon and chemicals processing industries, PRO/II simulation software can now be used on Microsoft Vista Enterprise & Business operating systems, and IPS has provided an updated install procedure and support for Microsoft Office 2007.

PRO/II 8.2 simulation software includes improvements for modeling heavy oils and electrolytic systems and for generating pure component properties. The PRO/II 8.2 simulator improves heavy-oils modeling with the addition of a new liquid viscosity prediction method that prevents viscosity from being skewed by the heaviest petroleum component. PRO/II 8.2 software has also integrated the Mixed Solvent Electrolyte model, the latest electrolyte model from OLI Systems, capable of reproducing speciation, chemical and phase equilibria, applicable to water-organic-salt systems and aqueous solutions from dilute to the fused-salt limit.

The newest version of the software is also integrated with ProPred, a property prediction tool from the Computer Aided Process-Product Engineering Center of the Technical University of Denmark that allows pure component properties to be predicted from structure based on a multi-level group contribution method and can be used directly with PRO/II software.

“PRO/II 8.2 software shows our dedication to both the hydrocarbon and chemicals processing industries. We have developed features for each industry, as well as introduced features and infrastructure upgrades that will enhance the user experience of all of our customers,” said Joseph McMullen, PES Product Manager for IPS. “Our technological advancements in the area of modeling heavy oils truly set PRO/II simulation software apart from the competition, which continues to have issues accurately modeling heavy oils.”

The new integration with Microsoft Vista Enterprise & Business operating systems and support for Microsoft Office 2007 means that IPS clients can now integrate simulation and modeling functionality and data more easily with other enterprise applications.

About IPS (Invensys Process Systems)

Invensys to implement Operator Training Simulator for Sinclair Refinery in Wyoming

– Invensys solution to include SimSci-Esscor DYNSIM process simulation and FSIM Plus controls simulation, supporting a variety of operator training functions –

FOXBORO, MASSACHUSETTS, USA – JUNE 5, 2007 – Invensys Process Systems has been awarded a contract from Sinclair Oil Corporation for a SimSci-Esscor Operating Training Simulator (OTS) to be implemented at the Sinclair refinery near Rawlins, Wyoming. Advanced dynamic simulation technology in the new OTS will allow Sinclair’s Wyoming Refinery to train operators on all aspects of plant operations and controls, as well as start-up, shutdown and emergency situation management of the refinery’s newly constructed delayed coker unit.

“Sinclair Wyoming Refinery selected Invensys’ OTS solution based on its ability to integrate easily and be compatible with our existing control system,” said Ed Juno, Operations Manager at Sinclair Wyoming Refining Company.

The Invensys OTS solution will include SimSci-Esscor DYNSIM simulation software for high fidelity process modeling of all plant processes. The OTS will play an important role at the refinery, as the new delayed coker unit is the first such unit installed at the facility. The simulator will help accelerate commissioning of the new unit.

The Sinclair Wyoming Refinery currently employs Foxboro I/A Series distributed control systems (DCS) throughout the facility, and the new software implementation will include the FSIM Plus solution that simulates the Foxboro DCS, facilitating controls checkout and related operator functions. The operations and controls simulation solution is integrated by the SimSci-Esscor SIM4ME common user environment. Invensys will provide a range of professional services in connection with the OTS implementation.
