What is DWSIM Pro?
DWSIM Pro is a commercial sibling of DWSIM open-source process simulator with private support and hosted in the cloud.
DWSIM simulates the material and energy balances of chemical process plants in steady-state and dynamic mode. Use it for design, engineering and debottlenecking studies, to connect control systems, and for operator training simulators and digital twins.
DWSIM Pro integrates into the simulation framework
