Aspen FLARENET 20.0

Aspen FLARENET is a specialized engineering application for modeling and analyzing flare and relief header systems in oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities. It helps engineers design, verify, and debottleneck complex flare networks by predicting pressure drops, backpressure, velocities, and Mach numbers across headers, sub-headers, branches, tees, valves, and flare tips. By assessing single-phase and two-phase flow behavior and identifying constraints, it supports safer, more reliable, and more economical flare system designs.

Key capabilities:

• Network modeling: Build and evaluate intricate flare and vent systems, including knockout drums, restrictions, and instrumented devices.
• Hydraulic analysis: Perform steady-state calculations for compressible and two-phase flow, including choked flow and critical pressure checks.
• Scenario management: Compare relief and blowdown cases, assess peak loads, and understand combined contingency effects.
• Design verification: Check line sizing and operating limits, and evaluate performance against common industry guidance (e.g., API 520/521/537).
• Debottlenecking and revamps: Pinpoint high-loss segments and evaluate what-if modifications to improve capacity and compliance.
• Reporting: Generate clear, auditable results and documentation to support process safety and management-of-change workflows.

Typical uses include greenfield flare header design, brownfield capacity checks, unit revamps, and safety studies where accurate prediction of backpressure and velocities is critical.
