Narration
Slide number 1

Title slide

Welcome to the Overview of ASCEND tutorial series.
Show Slide 2 In this tutorial, we will introduce you to
  • ASCEND
  • problems that can be solved using ASCEND
  • ASCEND interface through a sample model
  • topics covered in this series
Slide number 3

System Requirement

System Requirements

Here I am using

  • Ubuntu Linux OS version 12.04 and
  • ASCEND version 0.9.8
Slide number 4

Prerequisites

To follow this tutorial series, user doesn't require any prior knowledge of ASCEND.


To know more about ASCEND, please visit ascend4.org


Slide number 5

What is ASCEND

What is ASCEND?
  • ASCEND is an open-source software program, for solving mathematical models.
  • ASCEND stands for Advanced System for Computations in Engineering Design.
Slide number Applications of ASCEND


Applications of ASCEND


ASCEND can be used for various purposes like

  • solving systems of non-linear equations,
  • linear and nonlinear optimization problems, and
  • dynamic systems


Slide number 6

Sample Problems

Various process simulation problems can be modeled using ASCEND.

Some of such examples are-

  • Modelling a flash drum for separating a given mixture.
  • Modelling a process flow-sheet comprising of a Mixer, Reactor and Separation unit.
Open the ASCEND interface Let me now introduce you to the ASCEND interface.
Let me load a file.


We will learn more about using this interface in the further tutorials.

Slide Applications of ASCEND Let us now have a look at the topics to be covered in this tutorial series.
Slide Learning Objectives In this tutorial, we will learn
  • how to install ASCEND on Linux and Windows.
  • how to open a model in ASCEND and solve it.


Slide Learning Objectives
  • how to build a basic model
  • how to add methods to this basic model.
  • and how to write dimensionally consistent equation in ASCEND.
Slide Learning Objectives We will also learn
  • how to create a re-usable model
  • reuse the model for different components
  • import data from Thermodynamics library
  • and solve the model.
Slide Learning Objectives Further to this, we will learn how to
  • Model a Mixer
  • Model a Reactor
  • Connect different components of a flow-sheet
  • and run the flow-sheet
Slide Learning Objectives Lastly, we will learn
  • how to use FOR loop in ASCEND
  • how to use Arrays in our models
  • how to plot graphs using ASCEND
Slide number 6
