Project Specific

The project challenge was to obtain the most optimal design regarding the pressure loss in the system, as the pressure drop is directly influencing the total efficiency of the steam cycle.

PASS software used PASS/HYDROSYSTEM
How PASS software helped in the project execution

Previously the company used inhouse developed, less effective software, to make the pressure drop calculations.

PASS software significantly reduced the time for making the pressure drop engineering and producing the pressure drop documentation.

Much time was saved, due to the ability of the PASS software to import the 3D pipe models directly from the flex calculation software used in the project.

Results All pressure drop calculations were issued on time and met the project requirements.
