What do you like best about Aspen HYSYS?

Aspen Hysys is a simulator that responds to many chemical processes in the oil and natural gas processing industry, different sectors have benefited from this simulator for years, and it is always one of the best options for creating design and simulation processes. For example, simulate a distillation tower, a dehydration plant, etc. Since Aspen added Hysys to its product portfolio, I am more inclined to use it, because it has improved significantly, this simulator is one of my favorites as it shows me the simulated process in a stable and dynamic state, that is, that for my presentations of projects, it allows me to dynamically show the movements in the process so that the jury sees what I really want to solve.

What do you dislike about Aspen HYSYS?

It has nothing that I dislike. I think it has a complete package and a powerful interface that will allow you to have the best of the processes with all its parameters and indicators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspen HYSYS:

I always recommend Aspen Hysys to everyone who works with industrial chemical processes and industrial processes such as oil and gas, it is the best tool for process design and evaluation, process optimization. It's great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aspen HYSYS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Aspen Hysys for me is a very powerful simulator, with a very powerful interface that not everyone can use without prior explanation or have had contact with a similar simulator, but once you become familiar with its processes you will realize that it is easy and the best option to observe the processes, with Aspen Hysys I love to simulate because when you are designing a process from scratch, if you are missing a parameter it indicates in red that you have not placed it or the range in which the parameter should be, it happened to me that When simulating a fractionation tower, in which two streams of rich gas are mixed, the energy stream had to be placed in the heat exchanger in addition to giving it specifications within the exchanger, which in PRO II is an internal variable of the process, and the Aspen Hysys simulator just didn't run, but the simulator is very friendly and would tell me what was missing, immediately upon connecting the power stream, I could continue with the simulation now yes successively. turning a stream rich in C3 + which was the main reason I was simulating. It is one more quality of Hysys since you correct everything on the way, with the green and red traffic light it is great, because it indicates how well you are in the process, it is very annoying those simulators that end the process and you run the simulation tells you that everything is fine and the final results are not what you want and you must start modifying parameters, that does not happen with Aspen Hysys.

What do you like best about Aspen HYSYS?

Hysys has been an integral part for my simulation projects. The simulation results are very precise and pilot results are also very much inline. I've used it for distillation columns and single fixed bed reactors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspen HYSYS?

The user interface could be a little better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aspen HYSYS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Used it for single fixed bed reactors and distillation column design. The height of the packed column and size of the reactor required for an organic synthesis were simulated correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspen HYSYS?

The program allows for a wide range of simulations that can allow you to perform simple tasks that are normally repetitive as well as extremely in depth optimisation on specific parts of a process, allowing you to see what changes in the system might impact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspen HYSYS?

The software itself does have a dated looking user interface however this is a very minor issue. The program it’s self could be more user friendly to newcomers as figuring the system out initially can be very daunting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aspen HYSYS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used ASPEN to run simulations of stripping and absorbing columns i was optimising for my design project, allowing me to make changes the system without redoing my entire calculations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
