Please help me I am new to Matlab and Aspen Plus but have basic knowledge so please guide in detail. Please tell me what steps do I follow to link Aspen file and Matlab.

The Matlab cod file is:

%% Created by Ing. Andrés Felipe Abril. Universidad Nacional de Colombia. Departamento de Ingeniería Química.
%% Linking
Aspen = actxserver('Apwn.Document.36.0'); %34.0 ---> V8.8; 35.0 ---> V9.0; and 36.0 ---> V10.0
[stat,mess]=fileattrib; % get attributes of folder (Necessary to establish the location of the simulation)
Simulation_Name = 'Reactive_Distillation';% Aspeen Plus Simulation Name
Aspen.invoke('InitFromArchive2',[mess.Name '\' Simulation_Name '.bkp']);
Aspen.Visible = 1; % 1 ---> Aspen is Visible; 0 ---> Aspen is open but not visible
Aspen.SuppressDialogs = 1; % Suppress windows dialogs.
Aspen.Engine.Run2(1); % Run the simulation
while Aspen.Engine.IsRunning == 1 % 1 --> If Aspen is running; 0 ---> If Aspen stop.
    pause(0.5);
end
%% Example of Application
Reflux_Ratio = [1, 3, 5, 7];
for i = 1:length(Reflux_Ratio)
    Aspen.Tree.FindNode("\Data\Blocks\RC-101\Input\BASIS_RR").Value = Reflux_Ratio(i); % Column Reflux
    Aspen.Reinit; % Reinit simulation
    Aspen.Engine.Run2(1); %Run the simulation. (1) ---> Matlab isnt busy; (0) Matlab is Busy;
    time = 1;
    while Aspen.Engine.IsRunning == 1 % 1 --> If Aspen is running; 0 ---> If Aspen stop.
        pause(0.5);
        time = time+1;
        if time==15 % Control of simulation time.
            Aspen.Engine.Stop;
        end
    end
    Simulation_Convergency = Aspen.Tree.FindNode("\Data\Results Summary\Run-Status\Output\PCESSTAT").Value; % 1 Doesn't Convergence; 0 Converge
    if Simulation_Convergency == 0 && time < 10
        Duty(i) = Aspen.Tree.FindNode("\Data\Blocks\RC-101\Output\REB_UTL_DUTY").Value; %Duty value of reactive column
    else
        Duty(i) = inf; % Its Penalized if simulation doesn't converge;
        
    end
end
%% Plotting
figure()
plot(Reflux_Ratio, Duty, 'ok');
Aspen.Close;
Aspen.Quit;

end

if isempty(FEED_TEMP_node)

error('Node for feed temperature not found');

end

if isempty(diameter_node)

end

% Retrieve and convert node values

Qc = Qc_node.Value * 0.00419; % Convert to kW

QR = QR_node.Value * 0.00419; % Convert to kW

Tc = Tc_node.Value + 273.15; % Convert to Kelvin

TR = TR_node.Value + 273.15; % Convert to Kelvin

purity = purity_node.Value;

BOTTOM_TEMP = BOTTOM_TEMP_node.Value + 273.15; % Convert to Kelvin

FEED_TEMP = FEED_TEMP_node.Value + 273.15; % Convert to Kelvin

diameter= diameter_node.Value;

I send you my diameter retrival code, if you want more please like the picture of process flowsheet in aspen just let me know

All of the places that you use the Name property are within a try block. You do not show the catch block code.

You should probably put a breakpoint at the assignment to Qc_node and single-step looking at the results of the FindNode calls -- looking to see what size() and class() is being returned, and testing whether the result has an accessible Name property.
