The Voice Commander Extension for DWSIM makes it more accessible to users with disabilities. With this extension, it is possible to use your voice to create, edit, save flowsheets, as well as add, edit, remove, connect flowsheet objects, create and view result reports. It also provides spoken feedback for the voice commands.

Supported Voice Commands (English (USA)

Create/Open Simulation

  • 'Create a new simulation', 'Create a new flowsheet': use this command to create a new simulation while the welcome panel is being displayed on the screen
  • 'Open the simulation at position X in the list of recent files', 'Open the flowsheet at position X in the list of recent files': opens the flowsheet that is displayed in the indicated position on the list of recent files while the welcome panel is being displayed on the screen
  • 'Close DWSIM': closes the application

Simulation Setup

  • 'Add Compound X': adds compound X to the flowsheet, where X is the name of the compound (i.e. 'Methane', 'Water'...)
  • 'Add Property Package X': adds the property package X to the flowsheet, where X is the name of the property package (i.e. Peng-Robinson, NRTL...)
  • 'Change the System of Units to X': changes the simulation system of units to X, where X can be 'SI', 'CGS', 'Imperial', 'C1', 'C2', 'C3', 'C4' or 'C5'
  • 'Add a new X': adds a new object of type X to the flowsheet, i.e. 'add a new heat exchanger', 'add a new material stream'
  • 'X connect Y', 'Connect X and Y', 'Connect X to Y': connects object X to Y, where X is the name of object 1 and Y is the name of object 2
  • 'X disconnect Y','Disconnect X from Y', 'Disconnect X and Y': disconnects object X from Y, where X is the name of object 1 and Y is the name of object 2
  • 'Remove (delete) object X': deletes object X from the flowsheet
  • 'Show editor for object X': displays the property editor for object X

Edit/View Properties/Results

  • 'Edit (Change) the composition of stream X': use this command to begin editing the composition of the desired stream. Follow the subsequent instructions to complete the task
  • 'Update property X of object Y to Z (U)': updates the property X of object Y to Z (numeric value), optionally including the units (U). (i.e. update the temperature of stream 1 to 100 celsius). If you omit the units, DWSIM will use the currently selected unit set
  • 'Display (Show) property X of object Y': displays the property X of object Y in a new window. The window will disappear after 5 seconds
  • 'Display the results of object X': opens a new window with a results report for object X. While this window is opened, use 'scroll' to scroll the text to the bottom, 'speak' to have DWSIM speak the report for you. 'close' closes the results window
  • 'Create a PDF report of the simulation': creates a PDF report of the simulation and automatically opens the file after that
  • 'Create a Text report of the simulation': creates a text report of the simulation and automatically opens the file after that

Run/Save/Close Simulation

  • 'Run', 'Calculate', 'Solve', 'Simulate': solves the flowsheet
  • 'Update': updates the opened editors
  • 'Close flowsheet': closes the currently opened flowsheet
  • 'Save flowsheet': saves the simulation to a file

Comandos de Voz Suportados (Português (Brasil))

Criar/Abrir Simulação

  • 'Crie uma nova simulação', 'Crie um novo fluxograma': use este comando para criar uma nova simulação enquanto o painel de boas-vindas está sendo exibido na tela

(ou seja, atualize a temperatura do fluxo 1 para 100 celsius). Se você omitir as unidades, o DWSIM usará o conjunto de unidades selecionado no momento.
  • 'Mostre a propriedade X do objeto Y': exibe a propriedade X do objeto Y em uma nova janela. A janela desaparecerá após 5 segundos.

Ver Resultados

  • 'Mostre os resultados do objeto X': abre uma nova janela com um relatório de resultados para o objeto X. Enquanto esta janela estiver aberta, diga 'arraste' para rolar o texto para baixo, e 'fale' para que o DWSIM fale o relatório para você. 'feche' fecha a janela de resultados.
  • 'Crie um relatório em PDF da simulação': cria um relatório PDF da simulação e abre automaticamente o arquivo depois disso.
