EBSILON®Professional Online Documentation
EBSILON®Professional is an "All in One" solution for plant engineering.
It can be used for
for all kinds of power plants and other thermodynamic processes.
Building up on the models created with EBSILON®Professional, SR::EPOS (Save Resources :: EBSILON Performance and Optimization System) is used for
EBSILON®Professional comes with a powerful graphical user interface.
EBSILON®Professional enables the balancing of
regardless of, whether these parts or components build an open or a closed circulation.
Cycles can be modelled with the graphical user interface. The computing core of EBSILON®Professional creates and solves for this a system of equations.
Have a look at “Example 1", in order to get a glimpse of the most significant features of EBSILON®Professional. Click on
After the document or the drawing opens, you can see three components,
This cycle can be calculated directly. Convince yourself by clicking the menu option "Calculate à Simulation".
The equations of the equations system to be solved are determined by the components. The parameters
of all the three pipelines are the variables (unknown). For instance, the mixer component specifies
m1 + m3 = m2 .
The boundary values specify
m1 = 100 kg/s .
The value 100 kg/s is specified in the component-properties-window as the start value. Open this window by double-clicking the start-value component. When you change the value of “M” and do the calculation again, the value of the mass flow at the outlet (line 2) changes. In this cycle, the mass flows are shown in the bottom right corner of the value cross.
When you take the mouse pointer over a line or a component and leave it there for a brief moment, a small ”Tool-Tip-window” opens, which shows the name of the object and its most important physical parameters. In EBSILON®Professional each object has its own unique name, which is either specified by the user or is assigned automatically by the program.
Naturally this simple example contains some additional equations, which describe the energy conservation and the pressure dependencies. All these equations are given in the description belonging to each component. You can view them by clicking the “Help”-button in the Component-Properties window of this component.
For most of the components, these equations describe the behaviour of “really existing” component within a power plant. But there are other components, such as the boundary values, which are more mathematical in nature. Together, all these give you a powerful tool for a large number of different calculations for power plants or in the power plant area.
In reality, EBSILON®Professional is the "All in One" solution for power plant planning, power plant development and power plant business development; for all power plant types and other thermodynamic processes.
