Software Description:
AFT Fathom is fluid dynamic simulation softwarefor engineers, used to calculate pressure drop and flowdistribution in liquid and low velocity gas piping and ductingsystems.
AFT Fathom provides comprehensive, incompressible pipe flowanalysis and system modeling capabilities combined withease-of-use. Addressing open and closed loop systems, AFT Fathomincludes a built-in library of fluids and fittings, variable modelconfigurations, pump and control valve modeling and much more. Withthe optional Chempak add-in, a thermo-physical database of over 600fluids is available to further expand the envelope of your analysisand design. AFT Fathom goes beyond the boundaries of fluid flowanalysis, with thermal analysis capabilities including piping heattransfer, heat exchanger modeling and varying fluid properties.
AFT Fathom employs a robust solver using proven matrix methodsto solve the governing equations of pipe flow. The full power ofthis technical sophistication is readily accessible through anadvanced visual interface. From the powerful drag-and-drop modelbuilding features to the fully customizable output, AFT Fathombecomes an extension of the engineer’s mind, freeing him or her tofocus on their system, not the mechanics of software manipulation.Scenario Manager raises the what-if potential of system modeling toa new level. Multiple system configurations varying by any modelingparameter are easily managed within a single model file with afamiliar hierarchical interface. Changes in the base model areautomatically inherited by dependent design cases.
More than flow analysis, AFT Fathom lets you build your pipingsystem in software. Vary pipe sizes, pump curves, valve settings,fluid properties, operating lineup… virtually anything you can dowith the real system can be done within AFT Fathom, accuratelysimulating the individual system components and their interaction.Whether you’re designing new systems, modifying existing ones oranalyzing system operations, The ability to analyze alternates andthe insight provided by an AFT Fathom model significantly improvesthe quality of systems engineering you can achieve, leading to lesscostly, more efficient and more reliable piping systems.
