Pipe Flow Software

Today, PipeFlow.co.uk released a new version of their popular Pipe Flow Expert software, which solves the flow and pressure losses in pipe networks. Pipe Flow Expert 2008 has a significant number of new features and enhanced functionality.

Updates in version 2.04 include:

• Zoom to a selected area on the drawing.
• Energy Loss calculations for each pipe, including energy used by friction, fittings, control valves, & pumps.
• Improved Results Log Messages

New features in Pipe Flow Expert 2008 also include:

• Network Licensing and easy installation to a shared drive.
  The software can now be installed to any hard drive including local drives, network drives or USB memory sticks.
• Cut, Copy and Paste of multiple items.
  Multiple items can now be selected, updated, moved and copied. Items can also be copied between different drawings.
• Pipes and Nodes can now be amended as a group.
  Update attributes across a group of items with one operation to allow easy configuration of
  pipe diameters and node elevations (and many other attributes).
• Coloring of pipes in design mode is now supported.
  Pipes can be drawn in different colors and line styles to aid in the visualisation of items within the system.
• Color Gradient Coloring of Pipe and Node Results.
  Results item such as flow rate or pressure loss can be selected and automatically mapped on to a color gradient which is then used to determine the color of the item on the results
  screen. This feature makes it easy to visually see what is happening in your system, i.e. where the highest flows are, or where the highest pressure loss is.
• Support for modeling Pumps with the inclusion of a Fixed Head pressure rise.
  The pump head to be added can now be directly specified, which makes it easy to find out if a particular pump head is enough
  to solve your system and meet all of the design requirements.
