Incompressible Pipe Flow Network Analysis & System Modeling
The most comprehensive system modeling software available with powerful incompressible pipe network flow analysis, heat transfer and built-in tools for modeling a wide range of piping system components.

Building on the most comprehensive piping system modeling software for  incompressible flow systems, the AFT Fathom™ modules extend modeling capabilities into three areas-

• XTS—eXtended Time Simulation to model dynamic system behavior

• GSC—Goal Seek and Control to automate the determination of input parameters that will yield desired output values and simulate control functions within systems

• CST—CoST calculations of pipes and components

Waterhammer/Surge Transient Pipe Flow Network Analysis
Waterhammer/Surge transients for liquid pipe networks. Transient modeling capabilities include pump speed variation, valve open/closure, relief valves, liquid level change, accumulator and surge tanks and more.

Compressible Pipe Flow Network Analysis
Powerful compressible flow pipe network flow analysis and system modeling including adiabatic, isothermal and generalized heat transfer, modeling velocities up to and including sonic choking.

Building on the most comprehensive piping system modeling software for compressible flow systems, the AFT Arrow™ modules extend modeling capabilities two ways -

• GSC—Goal Seek and Control to automate the determination of input parameters that will yield desired output values and simulate control functions within systems

• CST—CoST calculations of pipes and components

Piping System Optimization for Incompressible Flow
All of the powerful pipe flow system modeling capabilities of AFT Fathom coupled with an advanced optimization engine to provide the piping and ducting systems engineer with the first practical tool to truly optimize for minimum cost, size or weight. AFT Mercury automatically selects optimal pipe and component sizes to produce dramatic savings in materials, installation, energy and other costs associated with your piping or ducting system.

Piping System Optimization for Compressible Flow
All of the powerful pipe flow system modeling capabilities of AFT Arrow coupled with an advanced optimization engine to provide the piping and ducting systems engineer with the first practical tool to truly optimize for minimum cost, size or weight for a wide range of gas piping and ducting systems. AFT Arrow automatically selects optimal pipe and component sizes to produce dramatic savings in materials, installation, energy and other costs associated with your piping or ducting system.

Thermophysical properties for water, steam and steam/water mixtures with tabular and graphical output.

A suite of eight utilities including; incompressible and compressible flow pipe sizing, convective heat transfer coefficient calculator, nozzle, orifice and venturi sizing, Reynolds number calculator, friction factor calculator, thermal/fluid engineering unit converter, two-phase flow mapping.

Chempak provides a property database of up to 700 fluids and mixing capability to AFT Arrow, AFT Fathom and AFT Mercury. AFT Chempak Viewer allows the Chempak database to be used as a stand alone application while AFT Chempak Add-in makes the database information accessible within Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.
