Fast and Accurate System Analysis Determines operating pressures, flow distribution, and equipment modeling efficiently.
Solve fundamental conservation equations of mass, energy, and momentum effortlessly.
Ensure precision by selecting from three reliable pipe pressure loss models: Moody (Darcy-Weisbach), Hazen Williams, Fixed Friction Factor (Darcy)
Here is an example of sizing a safety pressure relief valve to API Standards for a superheated steam system.
The required capacity in this case was 49,200 kg/h with a relieving temperature of 400oC and set pressure of 36.7 barg. When using the API sizing method, FluidFlow automatically suggests the next closest standard size orifice plate, in this case Standard Size “N”.
This example is of an existing purified water loop system modelled in FluidFlow which contains a single circulation pump which provided a maximum flow rate of 56 m3/h at 8 bar pressure. The general operating demand was 40 m3/h at 8 bar pressure. The total length of the piping is approximately 246 M with a rise of approximately 25.0 M on the return leg to the tank.
This example shows the main take-off line for tanker loading from a LNG storage tank facility.
FluidFlow solves continuity, momentum and energy equations iteratively to arrive at an accurate solution. Phase states and physical properties are calculated at each point in the network. Solutions are valid for all flow regimes.
In this system, FluidFlow was used to design and model the liquid and vapor lines, including compressor plant.
