Flange and head calculation

This option is only available when floating head heat exchanger is calculated, for normal vessels it is not possible to use a crown (hemispherical) head welded direct into a flange without knuckle or straight flange.

CLAMP CONEXIONS

Just as you can include flanges (EN-DIN-ASME) in the connections, include CLAMP connections (ASME BPE - DIN32676) that are very common in the pharmaceutical industry.

Load Combinations -seismic and wind load factors should be adjustable by user

Factors multiplying the wind and seismic loads need to be adjustable by user. Example below in red box shows Load combinations for wind load. Currently this combination is hardcoded in the program.

Longitudinal loads: add longitudinal wind and longitudinal bending moments

Today only transversal wind is considered, but longitudinal wind may be significant for big vessel. In addition, those moments and loads whould be found in the foundation loads. Also, if a External load is applied, the only moment availalbe ("bend...

report generation with word or pdf instead of rtf

I think several autopipe vessel users have encountered this problem: the RTF file takes a long time to open the RTF file is heavy to load to launch a calculation it is necessary to close the RTF file (in this case me I want to look at the rep...

Keep the link between the RFT file and the calculation

Once the calculation is complete and the calculation note has been generated, Autopipe vessel can be closed either by mistake or once you have finished, but often you would like to see the calculation note for verification or comparison or somethi...

While calculating Bolt tensile stress in saddle support software should also consider longitudinal reactions (RaHL)

In saddle support, Software considers only transversal horizontal reaction (RaH) and not taking the effect of longitudinal reactions (RaHL) while calculating the bolt tensile stress.
