Four types of insulation are
supported. Pipe sizes through 36" are included. Three layers of insulation are supported ranging in thickness from 0 to 10". |
| Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger, $89.00 |
| Heat Exchanger Performance is a powerful, user friendly, program for the analysis of two types of Heat Exchangers: Shell & Multi-Tube Exchangers, and Double Pipe Exchangers. In either case, the tubes are of the bare-tube type.
The program will analyze the performance of a known heat exchanger: Given the flows and inlet temperatures of the Tube-side fluid and the
Shell-side fluid, the program will predict the exit temperatures of both fluids and the total heat exchanged. |
| Piping Pressure Loss, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the pressure loss of fluids flowing under pressure in circular pipes. The program can calculate flow in either compressible mode (for
gases) or incompressible flow. It allows a choice of units: gpm, pph, scfm, or acfm. Any single-phase liquid or gas can be accepted. The properties of water,
steam and air are built in. |
| Pipe Network (Hardy Cross), $89.00 |

loss for any boiler chimney. In addition it calculates the exit gas temperature by calculating the heat loss through conduction and convection. The actual
friction factors for any type of interior surface are used. The program offers a choice of various typical gases or actual composition may be inputted |
| Nozzle and Orifice Flow, $89.00 |
| This program can calculate either the flow for a give orifice size or, conversely, the orifice size for a given flow. The program is intended for situations in which the orifice or nozzle is being used for limiting the flow of the fluid, not for the purpose of metering the flow. |
| Duct Design, $89.00 |
| Duct Design is a powerful, user friendly, program for
the analysis of duct systems transporting air, flue gas, etc.
The fluid can be, not only air, but any gas, at any
temperature, and at any pressure. The duct can be of any roughness. The duct can be circular, rectangular, or oval. Flow units can be either lb/hr or acfm. |
| Desuperheater, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the amount of water needed for a known inlet steam flow or for a known outlet steam flow. It also calculates the the degrees of superheat in the inlet and outlet flows. Steam and condensate properties are built in. |
| Steam Turbine, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the performance of a steam turbine section given the inlet steam temperature, pressure, flow and the exit pressure. The program can also estimate the theoretical efficiency of a turbine
section. The theoretical steam rate, exit moisture, and enthaplies of the inlet and outlet streams are calculated. The steam tables are built in. |
| Centrifugal Pump, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the suction head, discharge head, power required, Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) & suction specific speed for centrifugal pumps. |
| Gas Compressor, $89.00 |
| This program computes the power required to compress any gas, the temperature required and the cooling required. As a side calculation, the program calculates the molecular weight of any gas mixture. |
| Gas Expander, $89.00 |
| Gas Expander is a powerful, user friendly, program for the analysis of expansion turbines. An expansion turbine (Turboexpander) is a device for converting the energy of a gas or vapor stream into mechanical work as the gas or vapor expands through the turbine.
The expansion process occurs rapidly, and heat transferred to or from the gas is usually very small. Consequently, the exit temperature of the gas may be
quite low. This feature allows the expander to find application as a component of refrigeration systems.
The other use of Turboexpanders is in power recovery. When a large flow of gas is reduced from a high pressure to some lower pressure, or when high-temperature process streams are available at moderate pressures, the energy can be recovered
to drive pumps, fans, etc. |
| Fan, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the power required for a fan moving air or any kind of gas mixture. It predicts the change of flow, head, power & sound level resulting from a change of fan speed or inlet temperature. A side calculation allows the properties of any gas mixture to be calculated so that they can be used as inputs to the main fan program. |
| Gas Turbine, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the performance of a gas turbine using actual air enthalpy values. It provides values for the compressor power, the turbine power, efficiency and fuel required. |
| Deaerator, $89.00 |

cooling psychrometrics processes. |
| Flash Tank Economics, $89.00 |
| This program calculates the economic results that can be achieved by using a flash tank and a heat exchanger to recover boiler blowdown. The program calculates the amount of flash steam and saturated
condensate that will separate when a high pressure, high temperature water steam is flashed in a tank of lower pressure. It then assigns a dollar value to each
of the two components based on the value of fuel, boiler efficiency, etc. |
| Unit Conversions, $0.00 |
| This example of pressure conversions is one section of the 15-part Excel spread sheet that facilitates the conversion from SI units to IPS units and IPS to SI units.
The sheet is easy to use: Enter any quantity in the white cells and the conversions show up in the adjacent yellow cells. This spreadsheet will be included at no additional charge with any purchase. |
| Combustion Analysis, $89.00 |
