Waterhammer analysis tools of the past have been noted for being difficult to use and requiring extensive specialized knowledge. As a result, this critical aspect of piping system design and operation has often been overlooked. But no longer. Now AFT Impulse offers the ease-of-use of a drag-and-drop interface and built-in waterhammer modeling expertise. AFT Impulse helps you design and operate your systems with greater reliability and safety by avoiding the potentially catastrophic effects of waterhammer and other undesirable system transients.
AFT Impulse is a powerful fluid dynamic simulation tool used to calculate pressure transients in piping systems caused by waterhammer.
Designed for use in liquid systems containing:
water
petroleum and refined products
chemical products
cryogens
refrigerants
and more
AFT Impulse is particularly useful for:
Ensuring that pressure extremes are within design allowables
Sizing and locating surge suppression equipment
Determining imbalanced pipe forces and sizing structural supports
Troubleshooting existing systems to determine the cause of operational problems
