COCO

COCO is a cool app suite that helps you simulate chemical operations. It's packed with tools to design experiments in a virtual workspace and check out your results.

What's Inside COCO?

First off, you've got the CAPE-OPEN flowsheeting environment called COFE, thermodynamics for engineering applications (TEA), plus CAPE-OPEN simple unit operations (COUSCOUS) and reaction numerics (CORN). That's just the start!

More Tools for Your Experiments

The full package also includes apps like ChemSep LITE for simulating separation columns, CosmoTherm LITE for activity coefficient calculations, and OATS for logging property packages and unit operations. Pretty neat, right?

Customize Your Installation

You can even choose which modules to install. So if you don't need everything, feel free to skip some!

Create Projects Easily

With COFE, you can set up projects by adding normal streams, energy streams, controllers, flow constraints, bitmap images—pretty much anything you need! You can use COUSCOUS to power unit operations like pumps, compressors, reactors, and more.

Generate Reports with Ease

You'll love how easy it is to compile reports. You can include streams, authors, unit operations, and parameters. Plus, there are basic drawing tools like lines and shapes to help visualize your work.

Flexible Flowsheet Configurations

You can tweak your flowsheet's material types or the order of your streams and units before validating it all. COFE also lets you create plots showing temperature, pressure, composition—you name it!

Explore TEA Features

The TEA tool has internal material objects like those in COFE. You can export thermodynamic standard versions 1.0 and 1.1 too! It comes with default property pack templates that you can edit or even create from scratch.

CAPE-OPEN Unit Operations Galore

With COUSCOUS included, you'll have access to many CAPE-OPEN compliant unit operations for steady-state chemical process modeling—think splitters and reactors!

CORN Reaction Packages

CORN allows you to set up reaction packs easily by adding your favorite compounds and reactions within COFE.

A Suite of Extra Tools

This software doesn't stop there! You'll find additional tools like a standalone property package for steam and water (Water), a registry kit (CORK), logging tools (OATS), an Excel template that integrates COFE docs into Excel (COFE.xlt), an editor for unit operation icons (JUIcE), plus TERNarY plugin for creating phase diagrams.

No Stability Issues Here!

User feedback shows that COCO runs smoothly without crashing or hanging up on you. It's reliable when simulating chemical operations in a virtual setting! For an easy download of this amazing software suite click here!
