Creating a Process Flowsheet
To define a process flowsheet:
1 From the View menu, ensure that PFD mode is turned off.
Otherwise, the blocks and streams you place graphically, do
not become part of your simulation model.
2 Select the unit operation blocks and place them in the Process
Flowsheet Window.
3 Connect the streams to the blocks.
After placing blocks and streams, you can:
Delete blocks and streams
Rename the blocks and streams
Change stream connections
You can also improve the appearance of your flowsheet in many
different ways. For more information, see Modifying the
Flowsheet.
Mouse Pointer Shapes
When you are defining your flowsheet, the shape of the mouse pointer changes, indicating the particular mode Aspen Plus is in:
Pointer Shape

Disconnect mode |
Click and hold on a stream while dragging it away from a block to disconnect it. Release the mouse button to enter Connect mode | |
Resize mode |
Click and drag to resize a model or region |
Placing Blocks
To place a unit operation block in a simulation flowsheet:
1 Click a model category tab in the Model Library to display a list of models in that category.
2 In the Model Library, select the unit operation model that you want to place in your process flowsheet. To choose a different icon for the model, click the down arrow, and click an icon to select it. The icon you select will remain the default icon when placing that model, until you change the icon.
3 Click and hold down the mouse button on the unit operation model, and drag it to the Process Flowsheet window.
4 The mouse pointer is in the shape of a box with an arrow, which indicates that only one block will be placed.
5 In the Process Flowsheet window, release the mouse button
where you want to place the block.
If you have switched off Automatically Assign Block Names, you are prompted to enter the Block ID. For more information on IDs, see Options for Naming Blocks and Streams. The icon
that you selected appears on the flowsheet.
6 Continue creating your flowsheet. To place another block repeat steps 1 through 4.
When you place or move blocks, the center of the block icon snaps to a grid location if Snap to Grid is enabled on the Grid/Scale tab of the Tools Options dialog box.
Placing Multiple Blocks
To place multiple blocks of the same type in the flowsheet:
1 Click a model category tab in the Model Library to display a list of models in that category.
2 In the Model Library, select the unit operation model that you want to place in your process flowsheet. To choose a different icon for the model, click the down arrow, and click an icon to
select it. The icon you select will remain the default icon when placing that model, until you change the icon.
3 Click the unit operation model (click the icon then release the mouse button.)
The pointer appears in the shape of a crosshair, representing Insert mode.
4 In the Process Flowsheet window, click where you want to place the block. The icon that you selected appears on the If you have switched off Automatically Assign Block Names,
you are prompted to enter the Block ID. For more information on IDs, see Options for Naming Blocks and Streams. The icon that you selected appears on the flowsheet.
5 Continue creating your flowsheet
If you want to |
Do this |
Place another block for the same model |
Click in a new location on the flowsheet |
Place a block for a different model |
Repeat steps 1 to 4. |
Stop placing blocks |
Click the Select Mode button in the upper left corner of the Model Library. This turns off insert mode. Insert mode is on when the Select Mode button is raised, and off when the button is depressed. |
When you place or move blocks, the center of the block icon snaps to a grid location if Snap to Grid is enabled on the Grid/Scale tab of the Tools Options dialog box.
Placing Streams and Connecting Blocks
To place a stream:
1 Click the STREAMS icon on the left side of the Model Library.
2 If you want to select a different stream type (Material, Heat or Work), click the down arrow next to the icon and choose a different type.
Move the mouse pointer to the Process Flowsheet window. For each block in the Process Flowsheet window, all ports that are compatible with that stream type are highlighted Ports.
Ports that must have at least one stream connected are shown in red. Other optional ports are shown in blue. If you position the mouse over a displayed port, the arrow is highlighted and a text box with the description of the port appears.
3 Click a highlighted port to make the connection.
If the port is not at the location you want it, click and hold the mouse button on the port. When the mouse pointer changes to the port move shape drag to relocate the port on the icon.
4 Repeat step 4 to connect the other end of the stream. Only those ports that you can connect the other end of the stream to remain highlighted. For example, if you connect a stream to an outlet port, inlet ports remain highlighted but outlet ports are no longer highlighted.
If you have switched off Automatically Assign Stream Names, then you will be prompted for a Stream ID.
5 To place one end of the stream as either a process flowsheet feed or product, click a blank part of the Process Flowsheet window.
If the stream’s source is already connected, then a product will be placed. If the stream’s destination is already connected, then a feed will be placed. By default, if you click a blank part of the window before connecting either stream end, a feed is placed.
6 To stop placing streams click the Select Mode buttonin the upper left corner of the Model Library:
To cancel connecting the stream at any time, press ESC or click the right mouse button.
To place another stream of the same type, repeat steps 4 through 6.
To place a stream of a different type, repeat steps 2 through 6.
Placing Streams and Connecting Blocks Using Drag and Drop
You can also use drag and drop to connect streams. The procedure is similar to the one described above.
1 Select the stream type you want, by clicking the Material Stream icon in the Model Library or using the down arrow next to the icon to select a Heat or Work stream.
2 Click and hold down the mouse button on the stream icon.
3 Move the cursor to the Process Flowsheet Window.
The compatible ports are highlighted.
4 Release the mouse button on:
A port to make a connection
A blank part of the flowsheet to place a feed
5 Move the mouse and click:
Another highlighted port to connect the other end of the
stream
A blank part of the flowsheet to place a product
Using Heat and Work Streams
You can define heat and work streams to transfer heat and power between blocks, or for duty and power specifications. For example, you can use a work stream to transfer power from a turbine to a compressor.
When creating a heat or work stream:
Select the heat or work icon from the Model Library.
Use a port labeled Heat Stream(s) or Work Streams(s).
Heat and work streams appear as dashed lines in the flowsheet.
Using PseudoProduct Streams
You can define pseudoproduct streams to represent column internal flows, compositions, thermodynamic conditions streams for some unit operations models.
Pseudoproduct streams from one block may be an inlet to another block. Using a pseudo-stream as a block inlet results in an imbalance in the overall flowsheet material and energy balance
report.
To define a pseudoproduct stream:
When creating the stream select a port labeled Pseudo Streams.
