APPLICATIONS FOR OPERATIONS

coker-stress-analysis-for-coking-condition

Improve Delay Coker Performance with Akselos’ Advanced Simulation Software

Delayed coking units thermal cycling can cause damage over time, leading to extensive downtime if a critical failure were to occur. With Akselos, you can monitor, in real-time and in high fidelity, the thermal stress and other stress during operations.

In this video, explore how we model and monitor a coker model that has 4.78 million Degrees of Freedom, based on real-world inspection data.

GET MORE LIFE OUT OF YOUR ASSETS

application benefit-1

Running assets harder

Understand how different operating scenarios impact accumulated damage in order to make important trade off decisions around pushing the asset harder and higher levels of damage that leads to decreased drum life.

Understand Tradeoffs

Model repairs and modifications before they are made to understand tradeoffs between approaches.

frame-2639-1

Data-driven life extension decisions

Assess asset life with greater accuracy with the highest definition model on the market that unlocks structural capacity that can often be realized with many thousands of hours additional use.

APPLICATIONS FOR ASSET LIFE EXTENSION

coker-unit

Using Engineering Simulation Technology to Optimise Coker Cycling

Within refineries, understanding the damage caused by thermal cycling on delay coking units has been a challenge and has left room for conservatism.

Traditionally, it has not been possible to analyze structural dynamics of entire coker units in high fidelity and in near real-time. See how Akselos’ Reduced Basis Finite Element Analysis create a new precedent for coker operations through structural digital twins. This allows engineers and operators to understand integrity behavior to the highest level of detail.
