AFT Arrow is an application for simulating dynamic fluids to calculate the flow density in tubes. With AFT Arrow we can calculate pressures that occur in gas condensation, steam, compressed gas, gas transfer and petrochemicals. In addition, the application also features an operation simulation that can identify the source of operational problems.
Features of AFT Arrow
Advanced marching methods provide highly accurate results
Detailed modeling for fans and compressors, control valves, heat exchangers and other components
Conduct thermal analysis including piping heat transfer and heat exchanger modeling
Scenario Manager tracks all design variants and operational possibilities in a single model file with data linkage.
Integrated and customizable graphing and reporting
Export data (single values, rows, columns, tables, and graphs) to Excel
Ability to apply industry standards such as API 526, ANSI/ISA-75.01.01, etc.
Design Alerts can be applied to indicate unacceptable system operation.
Build models in isometric view on the Workspace
Import GIS Shapefiles, EPANET files, CAESAR II® Neutral files and Piping Component Files (PCF)
Conduct compressor and fan energy cost analysis
Calculate the costs of pipes and other components
Built-in libraries of fluids (including NIST REFPROP and ASME Steam Tables) and fittings which can be extended and customized
Optional Chempak™ add-on utility provides a thermophysical database of almost 600 gases – allows you to define non-reacting pre-mixtures, and simulate dynamic flow mixing.
