Connecting Objects with Process Streams

To create a network, objects must be connected with streams. Most connections that transfer mass are Process Streams. The pump and motor transfer power, and therefore represent a Mechanical Stream.

1. Select Process Stream in the Base Equipment library. Notice the graphic displays green highlights. These highlights indicate the available locations to connect a process stream.

   

2. Click the right side of SRC1 and then the left side of VTL1. Click OK in the Stream New Name dialog box.

   

   

3. Similarly connect VTL1 to TTL1. Click OK in the Stream New Name dialog box.

   

4. Continue connecting the process streams so they appear as listed in the table below

   Stream	From Object	To Object
   S1	SRC1	VTL1
   S2	VTL1	TTL1 (left hand side)
   S3	TTL1 (right hand side)	PTL1
   S4	PTL1	VTL2
   S5	VTL2	SNK1
   S6	SRC2	VENT
   S7	VENT	TTL1 (top)
