Process Modeling Work Flow

Defining the plant processing capability is called process modeling and involves the following steps:

1. Identify each unit and its attributes.

2. Group units into process classes.

3. Identify all connections between units.

4. Define all equipment segments and assign to connections.

5. Group connections into transfer classes.

6. Define the processing capabilities of each process class (phases and parameters).

7. Define the transferring capabilities of each transfer class (phases and parameters).

8. Define the status of equipment.

9. Define trains.

10. Develop phase logic.
