Added NEW settling slurry calculation method. 4-Component model based on a 2007 paper by Sellgren and Wilson.
Added NEW settling slurry calculation method. Liu Dezhong method.
For settling slurries, size distribution charts can now be viewed at the Supply Node(s).
Added the ability to Size Relief Valves and Bursting Discs to API520 or ISO4126
Flowsheet – Added the ability to drag an OpenPipe node to make a connection to any other node (provided node can accept another pipe connection) OR to drag an OpenPipe into an existing pipe.
Flowsheet – Added the ability to rotate any node, in 90° increments for ortho mode and in 30° increments for iso mode.
Flowsheet – Added the ability to store a flowsheet as a template. Templates can be inserted into existing networks and connected via drag connect.
Added a resources window, that connects back to website for examples and videos.
Improved the temperature and pressure range and the accuracy of the internal relationships used to predict air physical properties.
Expanded the pipe heat loss calculation method, to enable direct entry of U values. Full calculation of U value is also available.
Added Specific Heat Capacity, Flow Cross Sectional Area and Out Flow Cross Sectional Area to results table, flowsheet properties, fly-bys etc.
Data added for PE100 Polyethylene Pipes, Non Newtonian fluids (phosphate clays, red muds, fly ash, sugar processing fluids and various foodstuffs).
Created a Licence Manager that also gets installed with the software, allowing greater licence flexibility.
