AFT Impulse 10.0.1118

AFT Impulse is powerful dynamic analysis and simulation software used to calculate pressure rise transients in fluid piping systems caused by water hammer. This program will help you understand the transient response of your system, knowing how valves, pumps and other components will dynamically interact with each other. Evaluate the impact of pressure increase due to vapor cavity collapse by modeling vapor cavitation and liquid column separation.

AFT Impulse Features

• Design and operate your system with greater safety and reliability
• Avoid potentially catastrophic effects from water hammer and other unwanted system transients
• Prevent transient pressure problems by properly sizing and locating surge devices, such as surge tanks, air accumulators, and pressure relief valves.
• Start forwarding based on time or events in the system
• Reduce surge magnitude by adjusting system transients such as valve closing time or pump speed
• Easily animate and visualize water hammer events to improve basic understanding
• Calculate transient unbalanced forces and determine force sets by pairs of positions or single points
• Specify automatic design warnings that highlight out-of-range output values ​​for flow, peak pressure, velocity, etc.
• Compile your library of frequently used piping parts and quickly select them from the drop-down list
