11In the Process Flowsheet window, right-click the HCLONE block. From the shortcut menu, select Results.
The HCLONE | Results | Summary sheet appears. This sheet displays the calculated geometry for the block.
Exiting Aspen Plus
When you are finished working with this model, you can exit Aspen Plus as follows:
1From the Aspen Plus menu bar, select File | Exit. The Aspen Plus dialog box appears.
2Click Yes to save the simulation.
3In the Save As dialog box, enter the Run ID Solid4 in the File name box.
Aspen Plus saves the simulation as the Aspen Plus Document file, Solid4.apw, in your default working directory (displayed in the Save in box).
This simulation is delivered as backup file solid4 in the online Aspen Plus Examples Library. You can use this backup file to check your results.
