The gPROMS Product Family

Applying model-based information across the organisation

Transfer model-based knowledge seamlessly across the organisation

gPROMS^® is much more than a single modelling environment. gPROMS process models developed within gPROMS ModelBuilder^® can be exported to a number of other popular engineering software packages, where they can be executed as though they were an integral part of the target software.

This allows knowledge captured within a gPROMS model to be used far beyond its original scope, providing multiple payback on modelling investment.

It also means that knowledge gained by one department — for example, R&D — can be used and extended by others — for example, process engineering or control design.

What is the gPROMS Product Family?

The gPROMS Product family comprises the gPROMS ModelBuilder, for creating and executing models, and the gPROMS Objects.

gPROMS Objects wrap a gPROMS model, plus all the solvers and other gPROMS components required for its solution, in a form that can be embedded within another software environment.

This advanced capability enables the model to run in environments as diverse as Aspen PlusTM or MATLAB^® as though it were part of that software.

Advantages

… multiple payback from
investment in modelling

The gPROMS Product Family provides a means to transfer model-based knowledge seamlessly across the organisation. This brings many advantages and benefits:

corporate knowledge captured in one department can easily be transferred to others
knowledge can be readily deployed
the knowledge gained is extended with each deployment
there is multiple payback from investment in modelling
the design process is streamlined and efficient
different departments use the same models, ensuring consistency
rework is avoided, speeding up time-to-market and reducing cost
models can easily be transferred to operations, purchasing and other "non-modelling" personnel for decision support.

Licensing, supported platforms and pre-requisites

gPROMS Product Family components are available on common Windows and Linux platforms unless specific restrictions apply for a particular product.

Licensing is on an annual, concurrent user basis, except for gO:Run, which is also available on a 20-year licence plus maintenance. Parallel execution licences are available for gO:CFD for Fluent.

See supported platforms for the latest information on supported systems and version pre-requisites for target software.
