Time Narration
00:01 Welcome to this overview spoken tutorial on DWSIM, an open source chemical process simulator.
00:07 My name is Kannan Moudgalya.
00:11 In this tutorial, we will:* learn to install DWSIM
00:15 Get introduced to DWSIM
00:18 Get a glimpse of DWSIM spoken tutorials that are already available
00:23 Learn about all possible help available for DWSIM.
00:28 Almost any operating system will work, but I am recording this tutorial in Windows 7.
00:34 What is simulation?
00:36 Study of a physical system with a mathematical model and a computer solution to this model.
00:43 Simulation helps predict the behavior of the physical system.
00:47 It is inexpensive, safe and fast.
00:51 It eliminates the need to do these studies on the real system.
00:56 Indian space missions are economical and done in a relatively short time.
01:02 One important reason is simulation.
01:05 Reliance Jamnagar was the world’s largest single stream refinery when started.
01:11 Put up in a short time, once again, thanks to simulation.
01:16 There are many commercial process simulators.
01:19 A few general purpose simulators are listed here.
01:23 What is DWSIM? It is a state of the art process simulator Open source software Absolutely free Developed by Daniel Thermodynamic support by Gregor Used all over the world.
01:39 I will now explain how to install DWSIM in Windows 7.
01:45 Go to the link shown here.
01:50 I am already at this link. Click the Download button.
01:55 I have already done this.

03:39 Let me go to the slide.
03:42 Let me point out some advantages of DWSIM.
03:46 It is completely free.
03:48 It has excellent thermodynamics and solvers.
03:52 The entire source code is available to everyone.
03:56 Manuals of DWSIM explain every calculation.
04:00 Commercial simulators keep these confidential.
04:04 The user can introduce models, compounds and thermodynamics.
04:09 One can also use DWSIM’s thermodynamic library with other programs.
04:15 We have excellent spoken tutorials on DWSIM.
04:19 We will begin with the creation of material streams in DWSIM.
04:24 I have already downloaded all the spoken tutorials.
04:29 I will play them one by one.
04:32 Let me play this.Add video audio clip of Creating a material Stream in DWSIM---
04:40 The next tutorial is an introduction to Flowsheeting.
04:45 This constructs a simple flowsheet with a flash and a mixer.
04:50 Let us listen to it.
04:53 Add video audio clip of Introduction to Flowsheeting in DWSIM.
04:59 The next tutorial explains how to simulate a distillation column through shortcut.
05:07 Let us listen to it.
05:10 Add video audio clip of simulating a shortcut distillation column in DWSIM.---
05:17 The next tutorial explains how to carry out rigorous distillation calculations.
05:23 The starting point for this is shortcut distillation.
05:27 Let us listen to it.
05:30 Add video audio clip of simulating a rigorous distillation column in DWSIM.
05:36 The final tutorial I plan to show explains how to do sensitivity analysis.
05:42 Helps do a sensitivity study of some variables on other variables.
05:49 The adjust operation does the same thing automatically.
05:54 Add video audio clip of Sensitivity Analysis, Adjust.
06:04 Here is a summary of the tutorials we just saw.
06:10 Using DWSIM, one can quickly find solutions to flowsheeting problems.
06:15 Carry out "what if" studies.
06:18 Identify bottlenecks and ways to increase the throughput.
06:23 Students will find DWSIM extremely useful.
06:27 It will help them understand the concepts well.
06:29 Their expertise will help improve profits in industry.
06:34 They will get a lot more core engineering jobs.
06:38 It is also useful to those students who want to start a consulting company.
06:43 You may think that because it is an open source software, no help is available.
06:49 Is this true?
06:51 It is not at all true.
06:53 A lot of help is available to the users of DWSIM.
06:57 I will explain them one by one.
07:00 We have spoken tutorial forum.
07:03 Go to this link. I have already opened it.
07:06 Use the horizontal scroll.
07:10 You can also click the button, View all previous questions.
07:14 You may be interested in only one software at a given time.
07:20 Click the lens next to it.
07:22 Let me show the questions on Python, for example.
07:28 Remember, you need NOT log in to see the earlier discussion.
07:34 You may also post a new question by clicking Ask Question
07:38 It is next to "login".
07:40 Let me click it.You have to log in to post a question.

08:11 Suppose this question comes at 3 minutes, 35 seconds.
08:16 Choose minute as 3-4.
08:19 Choose second as 30-40.
08:23 Write your question here and submit it, using this green button.
08:29 Let me go to the next slide.
08:31 What if you have a general question,
08:34 not from a spoken tutorial.
08:36 So, it does not have minute and second.
08:39 For example, it may be for a new problem you tried to solve using DWSIM.
08:46 For this, we have another forum, led by the FOSSEE group.
08:52 Let us go there.
