Parametric studies and the power of Atmos SIM
A parametric study is a series of automated simulations where the input parameters and constraints can change according to user requirement. They can create a forecast for the pipeline’s future operations and enable pipeline operators to evaluate the results. In this blog, Senior Simulation Consultant John Anderton looks at two case examples in which a parametric study paired with Atmos Simulation Suite (SIM) can be used to optimize pipeline operations: the cases of an emergency shut-down procedure and a network capacity analysis.
