Xram i a shell for using the programs PFC-SF (Pipe Flow Calculations - Staedy Flow)
and PFC-TF (Pipe Flow Calculations - Transient Flow)
The programs are able to simulate staedy and transient flow beahvior in complex pie systems.
|
Features :
| |
| Numbers of pipes : | at least 2000 |
| Numbers of pumps : | at least 100 |
| Heater/Boiler/Cooler : | at least 30 |
| Valves : | at least 350 |
The program was originally made by Bror-Arne Gustafson, Chalmers University of Sweden, and has continously been developed since 1985.The main features with the programs are that they are able to simulate almost any pipe system with incompressible flow. The programs are for experts. The field of systems and components that can be simulated is comprehensive. Even though they are user friendly and easy to use, not much work has been done to make them look commercial. The programs are for sale, by us. But, If your need of analyse not is extencive, we recommend you to ask for us as consultans. Download user manual | |

Examples of abilties included : | |
| Four quadrant pump cuves | Necessay in transient calculations |
| Controlled valves and pumps | Necessary when dealing with complex systems |
| Pressure head movies | A lot of examples on the main page |
| Automated calculations | Gives energy and volume instead of effect and flowrate |
|
Examples of systems that have been simulated : | |
| Ink Jet Printer : | Transient bevior |
| Diesel injector : | Transient behavior when using ethanol as fuel |
| Mine pumping : | Minimize and secure waterhammer effects after pump trips |
| Wind system on 16th century organ | resarch project |
| District heating systems : | Simulate and analyse staedy and transient flow beavior |
|
The programs are used by several district heating distributions companys, such as in Stockholm and Gothenburg, who use them frequently in their planning. The programs are also our main tool for consulting in the field of analysing complex pipe systems. | |
