I am using PRO/II 9.2 alpha and I am starting from a case file where the CPP Ideal Thermo PPM and its PP nC6nC8 are plugged in. Then I am inserting the CPP MixerSplitter example UO, connected its two inlets and one outlet.

Then I am running the case, saving and exiting. This gives the attached log file. I am looking at the sequence of calls logged at the beginning of the Calculate call:

COLTT <Anonymous> : Call to GetOverallProp

GetOverallProp Takes Input arguments:

Property Basis pressure UNDEFINED

GetOverallProp Returns:

Property Basis ValueReturned pressure UNDEFINED 100000

COLTT <Anonymous> : Return from GetOverallProp - Succeeded COLTT <Anonymous> : Call to GetOverallProp

GetOverallProp Takes Input arguments:

Property Basis totalFlow mole

GetOverallProp Returns:

Property Basis ValueReturned totalFlow mole 1.25998

COLTT <Anonymous> : Return from GetOverallProp - Succeeded COLTT <Anonymous> : Call to GetOverallProp

GetOverallProp Takes Input arguments:

Property Basis fraction mole

GetOverallProp Returns:

Property Basis ValueReturned fraction mole 0.3

0.7

COLTT <Anonymous> : Return from GetOverallProp - Succeeded COLTT <Anonymous> : Call to CreateMaterial COLTT <Anonymous> : Return from CreateMaterial - Succeeded COLTT Reference count for MO logger is 2 MaterialObject <Anonymous> : Call to CopyFromMaterial

It says that COLTT retrieves pressure, totalflow and composition. Well my reading of the CPP MixerSplitter source code tells me it is the Unit Operation which does that.

00195 first let us make sure we are in a valid state 00196 if (valStatus==CAPE_INVALID) 00197 {SetError(L\"Unit is not valid\",L\"ICapeUnit\",L\"Calculate\"); 00198 return ECapeUnknownHR; 00199 } 00200 if (valStatus==CAPE_NOT_VALIDATED) 00201 {SetError(L\"Unit has not been validated\",L\"ICapeUnit\",L\"Calculate\"); 00202 return ECapeUnknownHR; 00203 } 00204 ATLASSERT(valStatus==CAPE_VALID); 00205 init variables 00206 componentFlows.resize(nCompounds); 00207 for (j=0;j<nCompounds;j++) componentFlows[j]=0; 00208 totalFlow=0; 00209 enthalpy=0; 00210 pressure=0; 00211 loop over the connected feed ports, get the minimum pressure and the total component and enthalpy flows 00212 for (i=0;i<2;i++) 00213 {port=(MaterialPortObject *)portCollection->items[i]; 00214 if (port->IsConnected()) 00215 {get the pressure 00216 material=port->GetMaterial(); 00217 if (!material.GetOverallProperty(L\"pressure\",NULL,value,error)) 00218 {SetError(error.c_str(),L\"ICapeUnit\",L\"Calculate\"); 00219 return ECapeUnknownHR; 00220 } 00221 check count 00222 if (value.GetCount()!=1) 00223 {SetError(L\"Invalid values for pressure from material object: scalar expected\",L\"ICapeUnit\",L\"Calculate\"); 00224 return ECapeUnknownHR; 00225 } 00226 use minimum pressure 00227 d=value.GetDoubleAt(0);

00229 get total flow 00230 if (!material.GetOverallProperty(L\"totalFlow\",L\"mole\",value,error)) 00231 {SetError(error.c_str(),L\"ICapeUnit\",L\"Calculate\"); 00232 return ECapeUnknownHR; 00233 }

In order for the Wix installer to be rebuilt on a machine with a French OS, I need in Product.wxs to change “Common Files” to “Fichiers Communs” in the lines that define the ids of the merge modules. I need to do that because on a French OS the “Merge Modules” folder is under “C:
Program Files
Fichiers Communs” and there is no “C:
Program Files
Common Files” folder. Wonder if, using some system variable, the contents of Product.wxs can be made independent of the name given to the folder holding the common files.

I am using build 263 of version 2.1. I enter COLTT Controller, select a Thermo System, tick the \"Enable logging\" box as well as the boxes for error interfaces calls and for reference counting log. Then I exit the controller. I run a simulation where interaction with the selected PMC is logged. Once simulation is finished, I call the Controller again. For the PMC with logging selected, the boxes for error interface logging and reference counting are not ticked anymore. I am under Windows 7 SP1.
