In this study, results of an investigation into applying parallel computing on a shared memory multiprocessor computer to the dynamic process simulation of a distillation column with use of a sequential modular simulator are reported. Two DYFLO process simulation models of distillation columns were parallelized and ported to a BBN Butterfly Parallel Processor computer. Computations were performed with up to 14 concurrently operating processors. General performance aspects of simulation on parallel computers are discussed and speedup as a function of humber of concurrently operating processors is reported for the two distillation column simulations.
