This email is to notify you that version 9.50 of DESIGN II for
Windows is now available on our website at www.winsim.com/download.html .

This is a upgrade release of DESIGN II for Windows. This new
release has the following changes:

1. Upgraded the initial isothermal flash from 2.5 phases (liquid
and vapor plus free water) to a true three phase flash (vapor,
liquid 1 (liquid hydrocarbon) and liquid 2 (aqueous liquid)).
The isothermal flash has been specially tuned to move EG, DEG,
TEG, PEG or methanol into the liquid 2 phase since these
liquids are highly miscible with water.
2. Upgraded the Mixed Amine thermodynamics from two phase (vapor
and aqueous liquid) to three phases (vapor, liquid hydrocarbon
and aqueous amine). Water immiscibility is now automatically
turned on for the Mixed Amine method.
3. Added a new three phase convergence method to the Distillation
Absorber Column called Sum Rates
4. Added the ability to print Pressure versus Enthalpy diagram for
any chosen stream or all streams in the flowsheet
5. Added support for atomic sulfur to the Equilibrium Reactor unit
module and added seven new sulfur species (S2, S3, S4, S5, S6,
S7, S8) to the pure component database
6. Added calculation of the Cetane Index for Crude Streams using
the ASTM D-4737 method
7. Added ChemTran dialog support for entering non-database or user
defined pure components. Both structure and point properties
method are allowed. Also added ChemTran dialog support
for entering mixture properties of two to many components.
8. Converted all the Component List, Basic Thermodynamics,
Advanced Thermodynamics, ChemTran, Component Data, Crude Cuts
Data and Ionic Species data dialogs into one tabbed dialog
9. Miscellaneous small enhancements and fixes (see release notes
at http://www.winsim.com/media/relnotes.chm )
