ROMeo Version 4.0 for Plant Modeling and Optimization

With version 4.0, the ROMeo software is now integrated within SimSci-Esscor’s SIM4ME common modeling environment. This environment provides a consistent user interface, common data model, consistent thermodynamics, and common software modules across different simulation applications to increase productivity while minimizing training requirements. Utilizing patented technology, version 4.0 of the ROMeo software enables users to employ a focused strategy of data re-use across the full range of simulation applications, from steady state process design to dynamic simulation and optimization. This includes the ability to open a PRO/II process model from within the ROMeo application, allowing users to take existing off-line models on-line for performance monitoring and optimization, while retaining equity in previously developed models. The version 4.0 release also features a true modular "subflowsheet" capability that allows users to manage multiple independent models as sub-flowsheets or import one flowsheet into another.
