Supercritical CO2 Property Surrogate with OMLT Surrogate Object - flowsheet_optimization (Part 3)#

Maintainer: Javal Vyas

Author: Javal Vyas

Updated: 2024-01-24

With the surrogate model being embedded in the property package, it is ready to be used in the flowsheet. We start by creating the following flowsheet using the IDAES package.

from IPython.display import Image
from pathlib import Path


def datafile_path(name):
    return Path("..") / name


Image(datafile_path("CO2_flowsheet.png"))

1. Importing libraries#

We will be using the unit models from the IDAES package along with components from pyomo.environ and pyomo.network.

from pyomo.environ import (ConcreteModel,
                           Block,
                           Var,
                           Param,
                           Constraint,
                           SolverFactory,
                           TransformationFactory, TerminationCondition,
                           value, Expression, minimize, units)
from pyomo.network import Arc, SequentialDecomposition

# Import IDAES libraries
from idaes.core import FlowsheetBlock, UnitModelBlockData
from idaes.models.unit_models import (Mixer, MomentumMixingType,
                                              PressureChanger, Heater,
                                              Separator, HeatExchanger)
from idaes.models.unit_models.pressure_changer import ThermodynamicAssumption
from idaes.core.util.model_statistics import degrees_of_freedom
from idaes.core.util.initialization import propagate_state

2. Constructing the flowsheet#

To construct the flowsheet we need to define a ConcreteModel using pyomo and then add a FlowsheetBlock to the ConcreteModel. Here since we are focusing on the steady state process, we shall have the dynamic flag as False in the FlowsheetBlock. Next, we define the properties in the FlowsheetBlock that we imported from the properties.py file. Then start adding the unit models to the FlowsheetBlock with the suitable arguments, after which we connect them using Arcs as in the flowsheet above.

Once we have the connected flowsheet, we initialize individual unit models. Before initializing, we fix desired variables for the desired behavior of the unit model and then use propagate_state to pass on the state variables to next unit model in the flowsheet. After completely initializing the flowsheet, we convert the network to a mathematical form by using network.expand_arcs from the TransformationFactory and apply it on the flowsheet block. Then we call the solver and solve the flowsheet to calculate the total work in the process.

def main():
    # Setup solver and options
    solver = SolverFactory('ipopt')
