Dear CAST10 colleague, At next AIChE Spring meeting in New Orleans, ProSim (www.prosim.net) will run a Short Course on applied thermodynamics in MS-Excel. This hands-on short course is designed for persons involved in the calculation of thermochemical properties (enthalpy, entropy, viscosity, thermal conductivity...) or in phase equilibria calculation to solve chemical engineering problems. The objective is to provide practical insight on some of the property models commonly used in the chemical and oil industries. Examples and case studies, using Simulis Thermodynamics (ProSim's mixture properties and fluid phase equilibria calculations server) in MS-Excel, will enable attendees to approach rigorous methodology to set up calculation spreadsheet, test different property models and compare their results. More information on Simulis Thermodynamics can be found at: http://www.prosim.net/en/thermodynamics/simulist.html The Short Course is held on Sunday April 6th (9:00AM-5:00PM). A laptop is required. Registration is handled by the AIChE (www.aiche.org/spring). For more information you can contact directly ProSim ([log in to unmask]). Please also consider forwarding this e-mail to any colleagues whom you think may be interested. Thanks, Stéphane DECHELOTTE _____________________________________________________________________ ProSim SA Stratège Bâtiment A BP 27210 F-31672 LABEGE Cedex FRANCE Tel.: +33 (0) 5 62 88 24 30 Mob.: +33 (0) 6 77 74 23 71 Fax : +33 (0) 5 62 88 24 39 Email : [log in to unmask] Software & Services Solutions for Process Modeling, Simulation and Optimization.
