For a quick demo of the updates listed below, watch the following video:
New Features
PVPTPro now includes the capability to perform nonlinear analysis for multiple nozzles and head types per ASME Section VIII Division 2 Part 5, Para. 5.2.3 and 5.2.4. [PRG-1446]
NozzlePRO’s Vessel Link can now consume and perform analyses using CEI’s JSON files. [PRG-605]
MiMOut, the generic output processor, can now display results for 2D Axisymmetric and 3D Bricks in the following ways:
Displays results in NozzlePRO for Axisymmetric and Brick models.
Displays results in FlangePRO (previously named as AxiPRO) for Axisymmetric and Brick Flange models.
Displays results in FEPipe for Axisymmetric and Brick Models. [PRG-987]
Issues Resolved
You can now perform finite element analysis (FEA) as expected from the Drawing Tools. [PRG-1709]
NozzlePRO now adjusts a vessel’s diameter correctly. Previously, the diameter changed based on a model’s height instead of width. [PRG-1838]
When a user enters a large thermal expansion coefficient, NozzlePRO now runs as expected. Previously, the software would crash. [PRG-1715]
The software now predicts true stress and strain results with large thickness or thinning applied to geometries when performing nonlinear analyses of models. [PRG-1137]
FlangePRO now runs as expected when performing FEA on stress classification lines (SCL) type stresses and when the number of bolts is greater than 1. [PRG-1233]
Miscellaneous/Licensing
PVPTPro now includes a new license for the nonlinear analysis capability. [PRG-1446]
