Rely on the Experts at EPCON for simulation and optimization of process & utility systems.
Models and Simulations
Our software is perfect for the design stage of your facility. We can model your process and utility services to ensure that unit operation and process equipment components are the right size and work the way they should. These models also allow you to find any problems before installing the system so that you can be productive right after start-up.
We are proud to say that at EPCON, we were one of the first to create and use fluid flow simulation. These simulations show you what is happening with process and utility systems in your facility to minimize leaks and help ensure design flow to all parts of these systems.
Unit operations simulated by EPCON International™ include columns and tray or packing internals, reactors, flash drums, compressors, expanders, interchangers, coolers, heaters, pumps, let-down valves, etc. We simulate flow in pipes for liquid and gas 2-phase systems and provide detailed sizing for pipes, pumps, exchangers, flowmeters, relief valves and control valves.
