Hello, Has anyone know how to simulate a Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump in Hysys, or if is there any extension or something? Please I am really interested in this informations. Kind Regards, Daniella

Wouldnt the pump module already in hysys provide some amount of functionality?

I seriously doubt the HySys Pump Module will be of any help in applying it to a positive displacement COMPRESSION  application.

 

The term, "Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump", is a total misnomer.  It is NOT A PUMP.  It is a compressor that takes compressible fluids or vapors from below atmospheric pressure to a pressure above atmospheric while evacuating a system of the same fluids.

 

I forget how many engineers I've had to correct on this in the past - but there have been a considerable quantity of them.
