Hyperion Systems Engineering

Our deliverables to customers are based on a combination of technologies that can accurately represent the plant behavior. Each element of the component technologies is of the best available quality. We employ:

Commercial simulator technology based on rigorous, first principles engineering and owned by the largest process simulation development groups.
Full thermodynamics and physical properties systems, pseudo-components and oil assays so that we can accurately represent the process streams.
Both steady state and dynamic simulation depending on the customer needs.
Simulation architectures that allow the models to be distributed over multiple computers, providing flexibility on the size and the complexity of the models.
Productivity tools to create standard reports, help in quality assurance, and facilitate the integration of process simulators with the DCS. Thus we provide more value in a shorter time period and with less risk to customer.

Typical communications within a simulator: The dynamic models of the process exchange data with the regulatory control and shutdown system, over a standard TCP/IP network and using an Application Program Interface defined by the DCS manufacturer. The data exchanged are displayed on the operator consoles over a proprietary network protocol. Hyperion has a demonstrated ability to develop the necessary interface between process models and the DCS.
