Abstract

The scene graph structure of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) was constructed. In the meanwhile, the assembly unit model of equipment was designed. The main FTS reactor and its mathematical physical model were described. Platform for chemical process simulation was established, on base of the virtual assembly for FTS. The method of data transfer in common chemical process simulation was proposed. The composition and flow rate of components, as well as the temperature and pressure of the FTS reactor was investigated by the one dimensional quasi homogeneous model. The relative error is less than 3% between the calculation and experiment. The accuracy of the system process simulation is reliable. It is verified that the simulation method of chemical process is feasible on base of the virtual assembly. This work studies a new way for simulation of the FTS, and also provides technologic supports for the simulation of chemical process based on virtual assembly.
