PIPENET VISION 1.5
Take a look at the list of the new fantastic enhancements of PIPENET VISION 1.5 software modules to be released soon. Users with valid Maintenance, Updates and Support (M,U&S) will receive this new version automatically.
|
Standard and Spray/Sprinkler module enhancements
-
New elastomeric valves achieve the required input pressure, output pressure, pressure drop or flow rate without the need to input the valve characteristic data.
-
Use right mouse button menu to turn nozzles within defined area on/off (applies to Spray/Sprinkler only).
-
Stand-alone program to convert a results file (SRF) to a spreadsheet.
-
The Edit Pipe type dialog now checks that increasing bores correspond to increasing flow-rate (calculated from the velocity and the pipe internal bore.)
|
Transient module enhancements
-
New graphing tool, with improved user interface and capabilities including superimposition of multiple graphs.
Please find the attachment.
-
Open channel cavitation algorithms have been significantly upgraded - covering bubbly, slug, and stratified flow types.
-
New simple tank types (vertical cylinder, horizontal cylinder, sphere, cone frustum).
-
New accumulator types (vertical cylinder, horizontal cylinder, sphere).
-
New surge tank types (vertical cylinder, horizontal cylinder, uniform section, cone frustum).
-
New receiving vessel types (vertical cylinder, horizontal cylinder, uniform section, cone frustum).
-
New pipe bundle component - a single component representing the hydraulic characteristics of a bundle of hundreds/thousands of pipes).
-
New Signal Selector component, to find the minimum/maximum of two input signals, or switch from one input signal to another after a defined time period.
-
Limiting Power Ramp option for Transfer function (enabling different ramp up and ramp down response rates).
-
Receiving vessel model extended to allow the specification of various types of weir.
-
Vacuum breakers can now be defined to operate only within a given time period, staying closed outside that period.
-
Pressure and pressure-difference sensors are now recognized for both the analogue and digital options, whereas previously they were always assumed to be analogue.
|
General enhancements
-
New demonstration presentations will be supplied on the CD.
-
Components now only change colour from blue to black when all mandatory attributes have been given valid values.
-
The Options>Units tab now initially appears unexpanded, to make it easier to find and change the units of interest.
-
Formatting of decimal numbers has been improved, and the requested precision is now saved correctly between sessions in all cases.
-
Component types now appear alphabetically in the Data View window “Browse” selector.
-
The size of network that can entirely be displayed within the the view window has been increased.
-
A number of other fixes have been incorporated.
