Abstract
As mentioned in Chapter 1, the first step of setting up a process simulation is to define chemical components that involve in the entire process. Note, however, that not all components are available in the database of the simulation software. Hence, one will have to define/register the chemical component(s) before one can make use of them in the simulation flowsheet. This may involve various types of hypothetical and oil components. In this chapter, the registration of components in several important process simulation software packages, i.e., Aspen HYSYS and PRO/II, are illustrated.
