Safety Analysis in HYSYS provides a pragmatic means of estimating relief loads,

PSV relieving area and Inlet/outlet line sizes in a quick and productive manner.

The scenario management system in HYSYS v8.3 allows the review of relief

contingencies and the expected back pressure all in one place. This addition to

aspen HYSYS may be used both as a design and as an educational tool.

Hamid Arabshahi, PhD, P.Eng. Process Dept Lead, AMEC In-Situ

The new Aspen HYSYS safety analysis functionality is great for the relief analysis

of the process unit. We can now quickly estimate relieving fluid properties /

conditions, size the relief valves and produce required documentation all

without leaving HYSYS! This will minimize errors, improve the quality and speed

up our work significantly.

INPROCESS Cons.& Tech

The most important utility of this incorporation for the user is that he does not

have to transfer data from one software to the other since it takes the needed

data directly from the Aspen HYSYS stream The interface created for this utility

in Aspen HYSYS is fast, clear and comfortable for the user. It permits him to

be flexible and to have a fast overview of the different PSVs, scenarios and data

in sizing the PSVs
