Logical Operations Used in HYSYS Steady State
4. • Function : used to set the value of specific Process Variable (PV)
in relation to another PV.
• The set operation only can be used to define relationship
between the same PV in two like objects,
i.e.: relationship between two temperatures of two different
streams.
• The dependent, or target variable is defined in terms of
independent, or source variable according to the following linear
relation:
Set Operation
Y = MX + B
where: Y = Dependent (target) variable
X = Independent (source) variable
M = Multiplier (slope)
B = Offset (intercept)
11. • Function : varies the value of one stream variable (the independent
variable) to meet a required value or specification (the dependent
variable) in another stream or operation (automatically conduct the
trial and error iterations.)
• Unlike set operation, Adjust can be used for both different and same
Process Variable in two different objects.

15. Adjust Connections Tab
Click to choose object
and variable that want to
be adjusted
Click to choose target
object and variable
Type the specified
target value
User can input
specific target
value, or choose
the value from
another object
with the same
process variable
16. Adjust ParametersTab
Define convergence criteria on this tab.
Method:
Broyden: used this to quickly converge
to the desired value
Secant: generally results in good
convergence once the solution has
been bracketed
Tolerance: The maximum difference
between the Target Variable and the
Target Value
Step Size: The initial step size
employed until the solution is
bracketed
Minimum/Maximum: The upper and
lower bounds for the independent
variable (optional) are set in this field
Maximum Iterations: The number of
iterations before HYSYS quits
calculations
17. SET & ADJUST OPERATION EXERCISE
Problem Description:
There are two wells (A and B) with different composition that want to be joined.
Well temperature and pressure are 120oC and 40 barg.
A : B Molar flow ratio is 80 : 20
The expected gas flowrate from well is 300 MMSCFD
And water gas ratio is 20 Sbbl/MMSCF

19. • Function : provides a general-purpose heat and material balance
facility.
• There are six Balance types which are defined in the table below:
Balance Operation
Type Definition
Mole An overall balance is performed where only the molar flow of each
component is conserved.
Mass An overall balance is performed where only the mass flow is conserved.
Heat An overall balance is performed where only the heat flow is conserved.
Mole and
Heat
An overall balance is performed where the heat and molar flow are
conserved.
Mass and
Heat
An overall balance is performed where the overall mass flow and heat flow
are conserved.
General HYSYS will solve a set of n unknowns in the n equations developed from
the streams attached to the operation.
Component ratios may be specified on a mole, mass or liquid volume
basis.

22. Example Using Balance in Simulation
create a stream that
has the same molar
composition and
flow rate as another
stream, but a
different pressure
and temperature
(e.g. - at dew point
conditions)
23. Example Using Balance in Simulation
all the
components of gas

converted to pure
propane in
the outlet stream RX
Outlet at the same
pressure condition.
Determine the

27. BALANCE OPERATION EXERCISE
Problem Description:
Create a stream that has the same molar composition and flow rate as another stream, but a different
pressure and temperature (e.g. - at dew point conditions). dewpoint of the product at 6000 kPa.

29. • Use this operation every time you need to recycle a stream.
• The logical block connects the two streams around the tear stream
(stream with temporary specification).
• Before you can install the RECYCLE the flowsheet must have
completed. That means there need to be values for both
the assumed stream and the calculated stream.
• Once the Recycle is attached and running, HYSYS compares the
two values, adjusts the assumed stream, and runs the flowsheet
again. HYSYS repeats this process until the two streams match
within specified tolerances.
Recycle Operation
33. Recycle Connections Tab
Click to choose
inlet stream
Click to choose
outlet stream
Inlet stream will always
be a product stream
from a unit operation.
Outlet stream will
always be a feed
stream to a unit
operation
34. Recycle Parameters Tab

convergence criteria
factor for each of
the variables listed
to select the transfer
direction of the
variable
35. RECYCLE OPERATION EXERCISE
Problem Description:
a two-phase feed stream (FEED) is mixed with a recycled stream (RECYCLE) and fed to separator V-
100. The vapour from V-100 is expanded in expander E-100 and then reflashed in separator V-101.
Half of the liquid from this separator is fed to pump P-100 and then recycled back and mixed with
the fresh feed.

37. • The Spreadsheet applies the functionality of Spreadsheet programs
to flowsheet modeling. With essentially complete access to all
process variables, the Spreadsheet is extremely powerful and has
many applications in HYSYS.
• The HYSYS SPREADSHEET has standard row/column
functionality. You can import a variable, or enter a number or
formula anywhere in the spreadsheet.
• Complex mathematical formulas can be created, using syntax which
is similar to conventional Spreadsheets. Arithmetic, logarithmic, and
trigonometric functions are examples of the mathematical
functionality available in the Spreadsheet.
