Introducing Aspen Capital Cost Estimator 13 Introducing Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, formerly known as Aspen Kbase, is a fully integrated, design, estimating, and scheduling system designed to help you evaluate the capital cost of process plants worldwide. Main Features Detailed EPC Estimates Aspen Capital Cost Estimator uses the equipment models contained in the Icarus Evaluation Engine (IEE) – a knowledge base of design, cost, and scheduling data, methods, and models – to generate preliminary equipment designs and simulate vendor-costing procedures to develop detailed Engineering-Procurement-Construction (EPC) estimates. Volumetric models generate a costed, quantity takeoff for the bulk materials without using factors or user input. The volumetric models also produce the quantities of pipe, valves, concrete, steel, and instruments identified by the associated equipment or area. Components of each line of pipe and instrument loop are quantified and costed, enabling you to view and adjust construction tasks. The Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Work Item Models produce the required man-hours by craft and task needed to install Aspen Capital Cost Estimator-generated bulks, as well as the equipment Aspen Capital Cost Estimator designed, by simulating detailed design construction tasks. Finally, the Engineering Models in Aspen Capital Cost Estimator produce man-hours by discipline and engineering work product. CPM Schedules Aspen Capital Cost Estimator has a built-in activity network generator to automatically prepare Critical Path Method (CPM) schedules. The EPC estimate and the planning schedule are in tune with one another, each having been prepared from the same project scope.
14 Introducing Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Information Tracking Aspen Capital Cost Estimator provides tree diagrams that allow you to view, track and revise information such as power distribution, process control networks, tiered contracts, areas and their equipment specs, and installation procedures. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Project Workflow Before using Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, it may be helpful to review the recommended project workflow: Note: Early in the life of a project, when limited mechanical design detail is available, you need only enter a rough outline of scope to produce the initial estimate of cost and schedule. As more information becomes available, the details of the project can be entered and new reports can be generated and analyzed. 1 Create project scenario and define properties like country base, units of measure, and currency. 2 Define design basis (general mechanical design rules), wage rates and productivities, code of account definition and allocation, material and man-hour indexing, equipment rental, and project execution schedule settings. 3 Define the Power Distribution system (if desired). 4 Define the Process Control system (if desired) and link to areas and substations. 5 Add contractors and redefine responsibilities (if desired) and link to areas and substations. 6 Run an item evaluation to produce direct costs for an individual component or run a project evaluation to produce design and cost results needed to prepare project reports. 7 View and/or print reports.

The following is the default interface arrangement, with a specifications form open in the Main Window. The Icarus interface includes the following features: This feature Does this Title Bar Displays the project file name and current Main Window view.
30 1 Getting Started Menu Bar Displays menu options. Toolbar Allows access to Aspen Capital Cost Estimator functions. See page XX43XX. Main Window Provides workspace for all Aspen Capital Cost Estimator documents, List view, specification forms, and other views. See page XX32XX. Project Explorer Organizes project items in tree format. See page XX30XX. Palette Allows access to libraries, projects, components, and templates. See page XX35XX. Status Bar Displays Aspen Capital Cost Estimator system status. Properties Window Describes the field selected on specifications form. See page XX39XX. Project Explorer Project Explorer is a graphical representation of the project. It has three views: Project Basis view, Process view, and Project view. Each view organizes items in a tree format. Switch views by selecting the appropriate tab at the bottom of Project Explorer. (Stretching the width of the Project Explorer displays the full names on the tabs.) The different views are described on page XX30XX. To expand a tree level:  Click the PLUS SIGN (+) next to the condensed level. To condense a tree level:  Click the MINUS SIGN ( -) next to the expanded level. Project Explorer Views Project Basis View displays project basis specifications. Double-click on a specification to view and/or modify it. A red arrow on an icon in this view indicates that you can right click on the icon for options. Level Icon Description 2 Specifications folder 3 Specification Process View displays simulator data information. In this view, simulator items can be mapped to Icarus project components. Mapped items can then be sized, modified, and/or deleted. Note: Simulation data can only be used in Aspen Capital Cost Estimator if you are licensed to use Icarus Process Evaluator (Aspen Process Economic Analyzer) or Analyzer. As in a process simulator, such as AspenPlus or HYSYS, blocks represent different operations within the process. A block is sometimes referred to as a unit operation. Level Icon Description
1 Getting Started 31 2 Main Project, containing a group of simulator areas 3 Process simulator area 4 Unmapped simulator block (yellow) Mapped simulator block (green)
32 1 Getting Started Project View displays project data information. In this view, you can size, modify and/or delete mapped items. In addition, new areas and Icarus project components can be defined. Level Icon Description 1 Main Project, containing the default Main Area and any user-added areas 2 Report Group, displayed only if Show Report Group in Aspen Capital Cost Estimator is selected in Preferences (see page XX54XX for instructions) 3 Area 4 Project component Main Window The Main Window is located to the right of Project Explorer by default. The Main Window is a workspace for all Aspen Capital Cost Estimator documents, the List view, and other views. You can adjust the relative size of each window by clicking on the division bar and dragging it to the desired location. Note: Here, the Main Window in Workbook Mode displays several tabs because a component specifications form (component A1) and a project specifications form (Escalation Specs) have been opened. By default, the Main Window is in Workbook Mode. In this mode, tabs are placed at the bottom of the window. These tabs represent all windows open in
1 Getting Started 33 the Main Window. Clicking on a tab brings the associated window to the foreground. Clicking Tile or Cascade on the Window menu displays all windows open in the Main Window. Regardless of the window arrangement, the tabs are still at the bottom of the Main Window when in Workbook Mode. Clicking the maximize button ( ) on a window returns all windows to full tab view. Clicking the condense button ( ) on the menu bar displays all windows open in the Main Window as they were when last condensed. This is how the Main Window appears when in Workbook Mode with Cascade selected as the condensed window arrangement. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator lets you float Project Explorer, the Palette, and the Properties Window in the Main window. When in this state, these windows behave just like other windows that are part of the Main Window. See “Customizing the Icarus Interface” on page XX41XX for details. You can turn off Workbook Mode by unmarking Workbook Mode on the View menu. When Workbook Mode is off, no tabs are displayed; to bring a window to the front, you must click on the desired window or select the desired window from the Window menu. List View The List view in the Main Window displays details on items selected in Project Explorer. For example, when you click on an area in Project Explorer’s Project view, the List view displays a list of all components in the area. This is referred to as the “area-level” list (shown below), in which the components are displayed in rows with component details in columns. When you click on a component in Project Explorer’s Project view, the List provides information only on the selected component, with component details listed in rows. This is referred to as the “component-level” list.
34 1 Getting Started Note: In the interface arrangement pictured here, the Palette and the Properties Window have been hidden to make room for the Main Window. Press alt+1 to hide or display the Palette and press alt+2 to hide or display the Properties Window. Press alt+0 to hide or display Project Explorer. Filtering Mechanism You can limit area-level lists to a single category of component. To do so, click the drop-down arrow on the toolbar and click on a category. For example, if you click ? Incomplete Items the list will only include components that still have specifications that need to be entered in order for the component to be included in an evaluation. Column Settings You can select which columns appear on the area-level list and in which order. To change column settings on the area-level list: 1 Right-click on any of the column headings.
1 Getting Started 35 A pop-up menu lists all of the columns. Columns currently displayed are checked. 2 To simply hide/unhide a column, you can click it on the menu. 2 To change the order, click Settings on the menu. The Settings dialog box appears. 3 To move a column to the right on the List View, click Move Down. To move a column to the left, click Move Up. The Reset button returns to columns to the default setting (shown above). 4 Click OK to save the settings. When you restart Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, all columns will be displayed in the default order unless Save Window States is selected in Preferences (by default, Save Window States is selected). See “Saving Window States” on page XX42XX for more information. Palette The Palette contains elements that you can apply to the project scenario. If you think of Project Explorer as a picture of the project scenario, you might
36 1 Getting Started think of the Palette’s contents as the pigments and dyes used to first sketch out and then color in that picture. For example, if you wish to import areas or components from another scenario into your current scenario, you can double-click on the scenario in the Palette to get a listing of its areas and components and then drag the area/component to the Project Explorer’s Project View. (See “Importing Project Components” on page XX330XX.) Likewise, the Palette’s Libraries view contains libraries of Project Basis specification files that, in Project Explorer’s Project Basis view, you can select to use. From the Palette, you can develop the libraries by creating new files, modifying existing files, and importing files. (See “Specification Libraries” on page XX238XX.)
1 Getting Started 37 When you add a component to the project scenario, you can choose from the components listed in the Palette’s Components view. Then, after you add the component, it appears in Project Explorer’s Project view. (See “Adding a Project Component” on page XX310XX). Finally, you can use the Palette’s Templates tab to access templates, both those supplied with Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, and any you or others may have created.
38 1 Getting Started In the default interface arrangement, the Palette appears on the right side of the screen. Like Project Explorer, it can be displayed in a variety of ways. See “Customizing the Icarus Interface” (page XX41XX) for display options. To hide/display the Palette, press ALT+1 or used the checked command on the View menu. As indicated previously, the Palette has four views: Projects, Libraries, Components, and Templates. The Components view, shown below, has a scrollable split window that displays details on equipment items. The division bar can be adjusted to hide or expand the details section. Note: The Palette pictured in this section has been dragged onto the Main Window and re-sized.
1 Getting Started 39 In addition to letting you import the contents of other scenarios, the Projects view provides options for opening scenarios, viewing scenario properties, and deleting scenarios. Right-click on a project scenario to access the pop-up menu of options. The Projects view displays all projects in the default project folder and any other active project folders. (See “Preferences,” particularly the “Locations” subsection on page XX56XX, for instructions.) Properties Window When you select a field on a specifications form, the Properties Window provides a description of the field. The description often includes minimum, maximum, and default values.
40 1 Getting Started Here, the Properties window (docked on the right side of the screen) displays information on the Item Description field, which is selected on the specifications form. Click on the Properties window to freeze and unfreeze the content. When the content is frozen, you can move to another field while retaining the description of the original field in the Properties Window. Like the Palette and Project Explorer, the Properties Window can be displayed in a variety of ways. See “Customizing the Icarus Interface” on page XX41XX for display options. To hide/display the Properties window, press ALT+2 or use the checked command on the View menu.
1 Getting Started 41 Templates Tab Use the Templates tab to access templates. Shown below are the ten templates included in Aspen Capital Cost Estimator. If you had created custom templates, they would appear on this list. Customizing the Icarus Interface In the default interface arrangement, Project Explorer docks to the left edge and the Palette and the Properties Window share the right. When docked, windows remain attached to an edge and all other windows are sized to fit in the remaining space available. Right-clicking on a border of any of these three windows accesses a pop-up menu from which you can select Allow Docking. When Allow Docking is marked, the window can be docked to any edge. Note: When Float In Main Window is selected on the pop-up menu, the Allow Docking option is inactive. To dock to a different edge: 1 Click the border that contains the Close button ( ) and hold down the left mouse button. A bounding outline will appear as you drag the window. 2 Drag the outline to the desired edge and release the left mouse button.
42 1 Getting Started Here, Project Explorer is docked to the top of the screen. When multiple windows are docked to the same edge, you can use the division bar to adjust the relative sizes. You can also use the Contract/Expand ( / ) buttons to either switch from one window to the other or split the side. Undocking by Dragging onto Main Window One way to undock the window is by dragging it onto the Main Window. Its size can then be adjusted. Float In Main Window Option You can at any time select Float In Main Window on the pop-up menu. In this state, the window behaves like the List view or a specifications form, with a tab at the bottom of the Main Window. Saving Window States If you are using the default Preferences, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator saves the interface arrangement. This way, when you open Aspen Capital Cost Estimator the arrangement is the same as you left it. You can also set the Preferences so that Aspen Capital Cost Estimator opens displaying the default arrangement. See the section on the General tab view of the Preference dialog box (page XX53XX) for more information.
1 Getting Started 43 Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Toolbar By default, the toolbar is docked under the menu bar. However, you can float the toolbar by clicking on a blank area of the toolbar and dragging it. You can also dock the toolbar to the bottom of the screen or vertically to the edge of the Project Explorer, Main Window, or the Palette. To do so, drag the toolbar over any one of these areas until an outline of the toolbar appears. Release the mouse button when the outline appears in the desired area.

56 1 Getting Started on the frequency of backups (see task and timed backup options above), selecting Unique Project Backups could result in large amounts of disk space being consumed by backups. Process The Process tab view provides options for importing from an external project. Import Connected Streams – mark to include connected streams when importing an external project. Import Installation Bulks – mark to include installation bulks when importing an external project. The Process tab view also provides options for unsupported simulator models and custom models. Map Unsupported Models To Quoted Cost Item – mark to have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator map, by default, unsupported simulator models to quoted cost items. “Unsupported Models” refer to models not listed in the Project Component Map Specifications dialog box shown on page XX193XX. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator does not recognize them and, therefore, cannot map them to Icarus project components. If this option is left unmarked, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator will not map unsupported models. As a result, a unit operation could appear disconnected in the Process Flow Diagram (PFD). Quoted cost items are not project components, but act as place markers to ensure that unit operations remain connected in the PFD. Note: Marking this option will not affect the mapping of supported simulator models. If a simulator model is listed in the Project Component Map Specification dialog box, then the specified mapping will be used. Further, if a simulator model is listed and has no default mapping (that is, Current Map List section is blank), then it is assumed that the user does not want to map such simulator models to any Icarus project components. For example, if this option is marked, a USER unit operation in Aspen Plus can be mapped to a quoted cost item if this option is marked. This ensures that the unit operation remains connected in the PFD. Activate Custom Model – mark to activate the Custom Model tool explained on pages XX335XX through XX341XX. Locations In the Locations tab view, you can select:  Project Directories Add/remove alternate project directories and set the default project directory. See “Adding Project Directories” on page XX59XX for instructions.  Other Location Specifications
1 Getting Started 57 To specify the location of various specification files and data: 1 Click an item in the list to display its description and location. 2 Click Browse to select a new location. Notes:  In some cases the description warns against changing the location.  Make sure to create the IP and MET subfolder structure when changing the source locations for library files that are units dependent (for example, Basis for Capital Cost, EML, UML, Custom Piping Specs, and so on). Logging The Logging tab view is reserved for future releases, in which it will be used to help clients with Technical Support issues. It is not currently activated.
58 1 Getting Started Unit Costs
1 Getting Started 59 Start Page Use the Start Page tab view to customize the News feed tab name and the Start Page news channel on the Start page. You can also specify to have the page show on startup and the interval at which to download content. Adding Project Directories Aspen Capital Cost Estimator comes set up with two project directories: ...AspenTechEconomic Evaluation V8.0DataMy Econ_Project Projects ...AspenTechEconomic Evaluation V8.0DataArchives_Econ_Project These directories, by default, are the sole choices of project directory when opening or saving a new project, as well as the only directories displayed on the Palette’s Projects view. On the Locations tab, however, you can enter alternate project directories, which will then appear on the Palette’s Projects view and as choices when opening and saving projects. You can also select an alternate project directory as the default.
60 1 Getting Started To add a project directory: 1 Click Add. The Browse for Folder dialog box appears. 2 Click the folder you want to add as an alternate directory; then click OK. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator adds the directory to the Alternate Project Directories list.
1 Getting Started 61 3 To set an alternate project directory as the default, click it; then click Set Default. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator displays a prompt asking you to confirm the change. Click Yes to set the new default. If the old default location is not on the list of alternate project directories, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator displays another prompt asking if you wish to add it to the list. Note: Adding the old default directory to the alternate project directory list lets you easily revert to it. 3 Click Yes or No. 4 Click OK to save the changes to Preferences. Before the added project directory appears on the Create New Project dialog box and elsewhere, you must either:  Restart Aspen Capital Cost Estimator. -or-  Right-click on the current project in the Palette and click refresh on the pop-up menu. Changing Location Specifications You can modify the location specification of any of the specification files. For example, to change the location of the Standard basis file: 1 Click StandardBasisRefDir. 2 Use the Browse button below to select another location. 3 After each change, click Apply to save your change. Note: If you are using more than one Icarus tool, remember to repeat the above steps for other systems (Aspen Process Economic Analyzer, Aspen In- Plant Cost Estimator, and so on.).
62 1 Getting Started Caution: Before performing the steps mentioned above, copy the system defaults (library folder structure) to the “myStd_Basis_[System]” folder. System Defaults: Economic Evaluation V8.0DataStdBasis_Aspen Capital Cost EstimatorIpDefault.d0* Economic Evaluation V8.0DataStdBasis_Aspen Capital Cost EstimatorMetDefault.d0* Should Resemble: CoABCmyStdBasis_Aspen Process Economic AnalyzerIpDefault.d0* CoABCmyStdBasis_Aspen Process Economic AnalyzerMetDefault.d0* Logging The Logging tab view is reserved for future releases, in which it will be used to help clients with Technical Support issues. It is not currently activated. Schedule In the Schedule tab view, you can specify your Primavera user name. The Schedule tab view also contains the Schedule Administrator Tool for registering users and access rights in cases where Aspen In-Plant Cost Estimator and the scheduling program run on a network. This tool should only be used by a network administrator. Importing and Exporting Spreadsheets The Spreadsheet Import/Export feature lets you:  export Economic Evaluation project data to Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.  import project data from MS Excel spreadsheet into Economic Evaluation project. This feature is compatible with MS Office 2007 and 2010. The Spreadsheet Import/Export feature is available for:  process equipment, plant bulks and installation bulk options in Economic Evaluation  basic Area specifications (Parent Report Group, Area title, Area type, Area dimensions) Accessing the Spreadsheet Import/Export Feature To access the Spreadsheet Import/Export feature:  On the ACCE GUI, click File | Spreadsheet Import/Export.
1 Getting Started 63
64 1 Getting Started This launches the Spreadsheet Import/Export dialog box. Note: The Spreadsheet Import/Export feature is accessible only when a project is open. This ensures units of measure customizations and currencies for a project will be available in the spreadsheet. Exporting Spreadsheets You can use the Export Spreadsheet feature to:  Create empty worksheets for each of the selected type of items from the tree.  Create a spreadsheet using data for existing project components in the project.
1 Getting Started 65 To create empty worksheets for each of the selected type of items from the tree: 1 On the ACCE GUI, click File | Spreadsheet Import/Export. 2 If it is not already selected, click Export Spreadsheet. 3 In the File field, specify a name and location for the spreadsheet. 4 On the Export Spreadsheet dialog box, in the Options box, click Create empty spreadsheet. 5 If you want to have ACCE remember your component type selections for the project, select the Remember component type selections check box. 6 Select the components, plant bulks, installation bulks, and quoted equipment to be included in the spreadsheet. 7 Click Create. Note: If the Creation operation is successful, a confirmation message appears. If there are any errors or exceptions, you are taken to the Export Spreadsheet dialog box. 8 Click Exit to exit the Export Spreadsheet dialog box. Note: You can export all components in the system, even components that are not present in the project. For example, if you specified all ANSI Pumps in a project and then decide you want to change them to API 610 pumps, you can export the desired components with data along with components that may not exist in the project; then delete the ANSI pumps in the spreadsheet and add the API Pumps. To export only the components that are in the project, use the export by area feature (and select all areas if you want every component) which will export only the contained components. To export all components in the system: 1 On the ACCE GUI, click File | Spreadsheet Import/Export. 2 If it is not already selected, click Export Spreadsheet. 3 In the File field, specify a name and location for the spreadsheet. 4 On the Export Spreadsheet dialog box in the Options box, click Export data from project. 5 In the Select box, click Components by Type. 6 Select the All Items check box. 7 Click Create. 8 After the spreadsheet has been successfully exported, click Exit to exit the Import/Export feature. To create a spreadsheet using data for existing project components in the project: 1 On the ACCE GUI, click File | Spreadsheet Import/Export. 2 If it is not already selected, click Export Spreadsheet. 3 In the File field, specify a name and location for the spreadsheet.

  • 13. Introducing Aspen Capital Cost Estimator 13 Introducing Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, formerly known as Aspen Kbase, is a fully integrated, design, estimating, and scheduling system designed to help you evaluate the capital cost of process plants worldwide. Main Features Detailed EPC Estimates Aspen Capital Cost Estimator uses the equipment models contained in the Icarus Evaluation Engine (IEE) – a knowledge base of design, cost, and scheduling data, methods, and models – to generate preliminary equipment designs and simulate vendor-costing procedures to develop detailed Engineering-Procurement-Construction (EPC) estimates. Volumetric models generate a costed, quantity takeoff for the bulk materials without using factors or user input. The volumetric models also produce the quantities of pipe, valves, concrete, steel, and instruments identified by the associated equipment or area. Components of each line of pipe and instrument loop are quantified and costed, enabling you to view and adjust construction tasks. The Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Work Item Models produce the required man-hours by craft and task needed to install Aspen Capital Cost Estimator-generated bulks, as well as the equipment Aspen Capital Cost Estimator designed, by simulating detailed design construction tasks. Finally, the Engineering Models in Aspen Capital Cost Estimator produce man-hours by discipline and engineering work product. CPM Schedules Aspen Capital Cost Estimator has a built-in activity network generator to automatically prepare Critical Path Method (CPM) schedules. The EPC estimate and the planning schedule are in tune with one another, each having been prepared from the same project scope.
  • 14. 14 Introducing Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Information Tracking Aspen Capital Cost Estimator provides tree diagrams that allow you to view, track and revise information such as power distribution, process control networks, tiered contracts, areas and their equipment specs, and installation procedures. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator Project Workflow Before using Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, it may be helpful to review the recommended project workflow: Note: Early in the life of a project, when limited mechanical design detail is available, you need only enter a rough outline of scope to produce the initial estimate of cost and schedule. As more information becomes available, the details of the project can be entered and new reports can be generated and analyzed. 1 Create project scenario and define properties like country base, units of measure, and currency. 2 Define design basis (general mechanical design rules), wage rates and productivities, code of account definition and allocation, material and man-hour indexing, equipment rental, and project execution schedule settings. 3 Define the Power Distribution system (if desired). 4 Define the Process Control system (if desired) and link to areas and substations. 5 Add contractors and redefine responsibilities (if desired) and link to areas and substations. 6 Run an item evaluation to produce direct costs for an individual component or run a project evaluation to produce design and cost results needed to prepare project reports. 7 View and/or print reports.

Saving Project Scenarios To save a project scenario:  Click on the toolbar or click Save on the File menu. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator saves any changes. To save the scenario with a new name: 1 Click Save As on the File menu. Note: Save As is useful when studying alternatives.
  • 49. 1 Getting Started 49 Note: You can save scenarios to project directories other than the default one provided by Aspen Capital Cost Estimator. See Preferences, particularly the Locations subsection on page XX56XX, for instructions. 2 Specify a Project Name and Scenario Name and click OK. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator saves the scenario as specified. Deleting Project Scenarios You should delete project scenarios when they are no longer needed. Deleting old scenarios opens free disk space and makes working with scenarios easier. To delete a project or scenario: 1 To delete a project scenario, right-click on the scenario within the project directory and click Delete on the pop-up menu.
  • 50. 50 1 Getting Started A dialog box asks you to confirm deletion. Note: You can select in Preferences not to have this prompt appear (see page XX53XX). 2 Click Yes to delete the project scenario. -or- Click No to retain the project scenario. Salvaging Project Scenarios If you exit Aspen Capital Cost Estimator abnormally without being able to save the current project scenario, you can salvage the project scenario from cached project information. To salvage a project scenario: 1 Restart Aspen Capital Cost Estimator. A window appears asking if you wish to save the cached information found in storage. 2 Click Yes. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator displays the Salvage Project As dialog box.
  • 51. 1 Getting Started 51 3 Specify a project and scenario name. You cannot overwrite the scenario being salvaged; you must specify a project and scenario name different from that of the original scenario. 4 Click OK. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator creates the new scenario. Except in name, this project scenario will be identical to the scenario that was open when Aspen Capital Cost Estimator was abnormally exited. After creating the new scenario, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator asks if you wish to open it. Unlocking Project Scenarios If Aspen Capital Cost Estimator crashes while you have a project scenario open, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator remembers that you have the project scenario checked out. When you re-open Aspen Capital Cost Estimator, you will have to unlock the project scenario before opening it. Anyone trying to open a locked project is denied access and provided with a message that states the time the project scenario was checked out, the user name of the person who checked it out, and the computer on which it was checked out. A project can only be unlocked by the user who checked it out or by an administrator.
  • 52. 52 1 Getting Started To unlock a project scenario: 1 Right-click the project scenario in the Palette. 2 On the menu that appears, click Unlock. You can now open the project scenario as you normally would. Copying Project Directories Within a project directory, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator creates an independent folder for each project and also creates, within a project folder, an independent folder for each project scenario. This makes it easy to move project scenario files from one computer to another on the same network. Simply copy and paste the folder in Windows Explorer. You can also copy an entire project directory with multiple project and project scenario folders. Doing so creates an identical set of folders and files in the new location. See “Preferences,” particularly the “Locations” subsection on page XX56XX, for information on adding project directories and setting a new default project directory. Preferences The settings in Preferences let you specify how Aspen Capital Cost Estimator will act each time it is used. To access Preferences: 1 On the Tools menu, click Options; then on the sub-menu that appears, click Preferences.

  • 55. 1 Getting Started 55 the Component specifications when you switch to a different form on the Component’s Options menu. Spreadsheet Views The Spreadsheet Views tab lets you customize individual spreadsheet views. Use the Spreadsheet View field to specify the spreadsheet view you want to customize. When you have selected the spreadsheet view you want to customize, use the Units of Measure group to specify what units of measure to use. You can select both. Use the Fields group to specify which fields will be visible on the spreadsheet view you selected. To make fields visible:  Move the field(s) from the Available to the Visible pane. To hide fields:  Move the field(s) from the Visible to the Available pane. Backup The Backup/Recovery tab lets you select when backups are to be performed. You can select both options. Automatic Task Backup – select this check box to have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator perform a backup before executing major tasks, such as a project evaluation. Timed Backup (Interval, in minutes) – select this check box to have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator perform a backup at a specified interval. Specify the interval in the box provided. Timed Recovery (Interval, in minutes) - select this check box to have Aspen Economic Evaluation write a recoverable file at the specified interval. Specify the interval in the box provided. If an Economic Evaluation application crashes, when you open the Aspen Economic Evaluation application that crashed, you are prompted to recover your file and save it with a new name. Note: After a project has crashed and been recovered (under the new name), the original project that crashed should be deleted as it may no longer be in a stable state. After deleting the crashed project, you can rename the recovered project to the previous name if you want. You can also select to either have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator overwrite the project backups or create unique backups. Overwrite Project Backups – mark to have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator overwrite the previous backup every time the program performs a backup. Unique Project Backups – mark to have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator retain previous backups by creating a unique backup each time. Depending
  • 56. 56 1 Getting Started on the frequency of backups (see task and timed backup options above), selecting Unique Project Backups could result in large amounts of disk space being consumed by backups. Process The Process tab view provides options for importing from an external project. Import Connected Streams – mark to include connected streams when importing an external project. Import Installation Bulks – mark to include installation bulks when importing an external project. The Process tab view also provides options for unsupported simulator models and custom models. Map Unsupported Models To Quoted Cost Item – mark to have Aspen Capital Cost Estimator map, by default, unsupported simulator models to quoted cost items. “Unsupported Models” refer to models not listed in the Project Component Map Specifications dialog box shown on page XX193XX. Aspen Capital Cost Estimator does not recognize them and, therefore, cannot map them to Icarus project components. If this option is left unmarked, Aspen Capital Cost Estimator will not map unsupported models. As a result, a unit operation could appear disconnected in the Process Flow Diagram (PFD). Quoted cost items are not project components, but act as place markers to ensure that unit operations remain connected in the PFD. Note: Marking this option will not affect the mapping of supported simulator models. If a simulator model is listed in the Project Component Map Specification dialog box, then the specified mapping will be used. Further, if a simulator model is listed and has no default mapping (that is, Current Map List section is blank), then it is assumed that the user does not want to map such simulator models to any Icarus project components. For example, if this option is marked, a USER unit operation in Aspen Plus can be mapped to a quoted cost item if this option is marked. This ensures that the unit operation remains connected in the PFD. Activate Custom Model – mark to activate the Custom Model tool explained on pages XX335XX through XX341XX. Locations In the Locations tab view, you can select:  Project Directories Add/remove alternate project directories and set the default project directory. See “Adding Project Directories” on page XX59XX for instructions.  Other Location Specifications
