In addition to the features mentioned previously, and in examples F1 and F2, a key component of this simulation is the use of the fluid converter to allow the use of hybrid fluids in the same simulation. The converter uses an input from a compositional-based fluid and extracts the calculated molecular weight from the source and calculates the specific heat ratio using the molar heat capacity and the ideal gas constant.
Consider the basic example that has a Source model connected to a Converter, shown in the following figure. We enter a compositional fluid in the source and AVEVA Process Simulation calculates the molecular weight based on the mole fraction of the specified components. Along with the specific heat ratio that AVEVA Process Simulation calculates internally, AVEVA Process Simulation can combine these values with a different part of the simulation that uses a fluid where only the molecular weight and specific heat capacity are known.
