Chris Depetris – Director of Product Development

OLI Studio

• In the 2 years since the last conference
• Over 300 bugs have been resolved
• 90+ features requests
• Calculation parameters selectable in the input grid
• Stream grid sections are now sortable via right click menu
• Calculation results section added in grid
• ex: For pH only shows the amount of titrant added or removed.
• Isochoric calculation type now available
• Fix volume - free temperature or pressure
• Partial pressures now reported

OLI Studio

• Survey by vapor fraction and vapor amount
• Isochoric and custom calculation types now available
• Working with volume base streams
• New option to converge stream volume at specified T&P or

Stream T&P prior to survey

• Set default chemistry options (Tools – Options)
• Thermodynamic framework, Databanks and phases
• Water Analysis
• Long standing mass loss bug fixed when using inflow only

species ex: Silicic acid (H4SiO4)

OLI Studio

• Facilities now has ‘Whole fluid from’ option
• Previously ‘Brine from’ would contain whatever was left, now Brine

from will only ever be the brine.

• Export to csv file (for Excel) added

to plot (via context menu).

• Added support to import pseudo components

(Hypos) from HYSYS when a stream is imported.

• Standardized the labeling of liquid phases for MSE and

Aqueous thermodynamic frameworks

• Aqueous: Aqueous & Second Liquid
• MSE: Liquid 1 & Liquid2

OLI Engine: Developer Edition

• Two interfaces available
• OLI API
• Simplified streams based approach
• VBA compatible enabling use from Excel
• OLI Core Interfaces
• Lower level interface
• Requires skilled developer
• Requires generated chemistry models (dbs files)
• Native units only (C, atm, moles …)
• Unit conversion left to developer

OLI Alliance Software

• Unified installers
• Configuration tool enables linking to specific alliance partner version
• Updatable via the internet to add support for new versions.
• Version specific handled by the OLI Engine in … Config Tool
• Aspen Technologies
• Aspen HYSYS - V7.3.2, V8.0, V8.2, V8.4, V8.6, V8.8, V9.0
• Aspen Plus - V7.3, V8.0, V8.2, V8.3, V8.4, V8.6, V8.8, V9.0
• Schneider Electric Software
• SimSci PRO/II - 9.3, 9.4, 10.0
• Honeywell
• UniSim Design - R430, R440, R450
• Non version specific works without configuration
• Process Systems Enterprise Limited
• gPROMS
• ANDRITZ Inc.
• IDEAS

OLI Engine

• Prodip Kundu will be talking about updates to the

engine during tomorrow’s session.

• Simultaneous calculation support
• Currently only a single calculation at a time is supported
• Leverage the processing power of modern machines
• New project underway to evaluating best approach

OLI Databook

• Updated user interface for viewing and editing

databanks

• Copy/Paste support
• Demonstration table available during the breaks
• Works with new database format
• Based on SQLite database engine
• Single file per databank
• Will eliminate separate Access databank currently used

by OLI Studio

OLI Flowsheet:ESP

• Updated modern user interface for ESP
• Release Candidate available today
• Sachin Daluja will be covering it in more detail during

tomorrow's session

• Demonstration table available during the breaks

Contacting Support

• Contact Support

button available in the About Dialog.

• Automates the

collection of configuration data to improve case resolution time.

• Does not send any file

data.

• Save to File/Copy to

Clipboard allow you to see and send the information manually.

Development Plans

• OLI Studio
• Improved copy/paste support of calculations and

streams including to and from OLI Flowsheet:ESP

• Mixer improvements
• Ability to override databanks, redox, solid selection
• Release all products updated to use the new SQLite

databank engine
