Process simulators model unit operations, [[Thermodynamics|thermodynamics]], and flowsheets in steady state and dynamics, enabling engineers to size equipment and optimize operation. Prominent examples include Aspen Plus, Aspen HYSYS, and DWSIM. Such tools are central to chemical and process engineering. ## Key points - Enumerates chemical [[Process_simulation|process simulation]] software - Models material and energy balances and flowsheets - Supports steady-state and dynamic simulation - Examples include Aspen Plus, HYSYS, and DWSIM - Central to chemical and process engineering ## Relation to Systems Engineering Process simulators let engineers analyze a plant as an integrated [[System|system]] of unit operations, mirroring the systems-[[Engineering|engineering]] view of interacting subsystems. ## Sources - [List of chemical process simulators — Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_process_simulators) Back to Systems Engineering --- <!-- SEMIOTIC-PROFILE:START --> ## Semiotic profile > *The semiotic universals this article invokes, machine-derived from the crossref — **unverified** (born so).
