PetroPipe - Piping Design Software

[ashfaqanwer]

thePetroStreet has released one more FREE engineering software PetroPipe focusing on basic pipe design
http://www.thepetrostreet.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=652
Some of the features include:
1. Pipe thickness calculation boiler piping, process piping, gas and water pipelines.
2. Miter design
3. Piping branch / reinforcement calculations
4. MAWP calculations
5. Buried piping design
6. Pressure safety valve reaction force calculation
7. All data related to stress and other factors included in the software


Software would provide suggested values for design factors on the basis of day-to-day experience and industrial best practices.
However, user would be having the liberty to enter his own defined values.

Within industry, piping is a system of pipes used to convey fluids (liquids and gases) from one location to another. The engineeringdiscipline of piping design studies the efficient transport of fluid.[SUP][1][/SUP][SUP][2][/SUP]
Industrial process piping (and accompanying in-line components) can be manufactured from wood, fiberglass, glass, steel,aluminum, plastic, copper, and concrete. The in-line components, known as fittings, valves, and other devices, typically sense and control the pressure, flow rate and temperature of the transmitted fluid, and usually are included in the field of Piping Design (or Piping Engineering). Piping systems are documented in piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs). If necessary, pipes can be cleaned by the tube cleaning process.
"Piping" sometimes refers to Piping Design, the detailed specification of the physical piping layout within a process plant or commercial building. In earlier days, this was sometimes called Drafting, Technical drawing, Engineering Drawing, and Design but is today commonly performed by Designers who have learned to use automated Computer Aided Drawing / Computer Aided Design (CAD) software.
Plumbing is a piping system that most people are familiar with, as it constitutes the form of fluid transportation that is used to provide potable water and fuels to their homes and business. Plumbing pipes also remove waste in the form of sewage, and allow venting of sewage gases to the outdoors. Fire sprinkler systems also use piping, and may transport nonpotable or potable water, or other fire-suppression fluids.
Piping also has many other industrial applications, which are crucial for moving raw and semi-processed fluids for refining into more useful products. Some of the more exotic materials of construction are Inconel, titanium, chrome-moly and various other steelalloys.
