AFT Arrow provides comprehensive,
compressible pipe flow analysis and system modeling capabilities
combined with ease-of-use. Addressing open and closed loop systems,
AFT Arrow includes a built-in library of fluids and fittings,
variable model configurations, fan/compressor and control valve
modeling and much more. With the optional Chempak add-in, a thermo-physical
database of approximately 600 gases is available to further expand
the envelope of your analysis and design. AFT Arrow goes beyond
the boundaries of fluid flow analysis, with thermal analysis
capabilities including piping heat transfer, heat exchanger modeling
and varying fluid properties.
AFT Arrow employs a robust solver using proven matrix methods
to solve the governing equations of pipe flow to conduct a true
and rigorous compressible flow solution. AFT Arrow is unique
in its ability to solve for adiabatic, isothermal and generalized
heat transfer conditions and with sonic choking.
More than flow analysis, AFT
Arrow let's you build your piping system in software. Vary pipe
sizes, compressor/fan curves, valve settings, fluid properties,
operating lineup...virtually anything you can do with the real
system can be done within AFT Arrow, accurately simulating the
individual system components and their interaction. Whether you're
designing new systems, modifying existing ones or analyzing system
operations, The ability to analyze alternatives and the insight
provided by an AFT Arrow model significantly improves the quality
of systems engineering you can achieve, leading to less costly,
more efficient and more reliable piping systems.
