AFT Arrow 11.0.1106
AFT Arrow is a fluid dynamic simulation tool used to calculate pressure drop and flow distribution in gas piping and ducting systems.
Accurately simulate individual components and their interaction including effects of heat transfer, real gases and choked flow
Tightly integrate equipment characteristics, analysis and output with your system’s schematic representation
Utilize a wide array of features without sacrificing your need for a short learning curve
Compare the performance of new designs and assure all design requirements are met.
Identify and correct operational problems in installed systems
Significantly improve the quality of systems engineering and produces less costly, more efficient and more reliable piping systems
Capabilities
Experiment with operating conditions and scenarios
Easily change system input data, including valve positions, pump operation, control set points, pressures, temperatures and more
Model a wide range of system components for both design and operational cases
Simulate ideal or real gases
Choose between isothermal, adiabatic or generalized heat transfer conditions
Vary your system lineup: open and close pipes and valves, turn compressors or fans on or off, set control valves to fail position
Conduct flow analysis with high velocities including sonic choking
Compile database libraries of your frequently used components and quickly select them from a drop down list
Assemble non-reacting mixtures and analyze dynamic mixing resulting from intersecting flow streams
Model and analyze rotating piping systems such as those found in steam and gas turbines
Model effects of elevation changes such as in tall structures, subsurface mines and overland pipelines
Evaluate codes and industry standards applied in the model
Import piping layouts from
CAESAR II® Neutral files supported by AutoPIPE®, ROHR2, TRIFLEX®, and others
PCF Files supported by AutoCAD Plant 3D®, SmartPlant®, CADWorx®, and other GIS shapefiles supported by ArcGis and others
Import and export files in EPANET format
Clearly import Excel data into multiple scenarios and export with the Excel Export Manager
Typical Applications
Pipe and Duct Sizing
Relief valve sizing and system calculations
Compressor and Fan sizing and Selection
Control Valve sizing and Selection
Simulating System operation and component interaction
Choked Flow calculations
Evaluating pipe insulation and heat transfer in pipes and heat exchangers
Troubleshooting existing systems to determine the cause of operational problems
