PEL VisualPiper - for two-phase fluid flow

VisualPiper calculates the pressure change or flowrate of a liquid, two-phase mixture, or gas through an unbranched closed conduit system.

VisualPiper allows you to:

  • Specify the inlet & outlet pressures, or the inlet pressure and the required flowrate.
  • Predict the point at which choking occurs, at multiple points if necessary, and calculate the maximum flowrate.
  • Predict the change from liquid to vapour or two-phase flow.
  • Harness the power of PhysPack using rigorous physical property calculations;
  • Summarise key results graphically allowing you to see rapidly the changes in pressure and phase within the pipe.

The pipe is drawn with Microsoft Visio using a specially designed template for inserting fittings into pipes in the correct orientation.

There are purpose built forms for adding the process data with full unit conversion, pipe inner diameter calculations and roughness calculators. Changes in diameter are propagated up and down the pipe where appropriate.

Tailor made reports are generated using Microsoft Word giving a complete record of the calculation input and output specific to your own requirements.
