PEL PEW - the Process Engineers' Workbench

PEW saves design time and costs by bringing together a collection of important and frequently used chemical engineering calculations.

There are calculations for fluid flow, heat transfer, mixing, and vessel calibration:

  • Fluid Flow
    • Incompressible flow
    • Compressible flow
    • Gravity flow
    • Manifold T-junctions
    • Symmetrical T-junctions
    • Expansions/contractions
    • Orifice plates
    • Restrictors
    • Two phase flow
  • Equipment
    • Vessel Calibration
  • Heat transfer
    • Heat loss from pipes
    • Heat loss from vessels
    • Simple heat exchanger
    • Tank solar heating
    • Batch heating / cooling
    • Heat transfer coefficients
    • Finned tube coefficients
  • Mixing
    • Vortex profile
    • Power Numbers
    • Speed / Power curves

All the calculations have been verified and documented with extensive online help.

The interface is presented in a standardised, easy-to-use format and the results can be displayed in tables and graphs.

Features include unit conversion & calculators for physical properties, MW, friction factors, pipe diameter, and pipe roughness.
