Instrument Calculations

Instrument Calculations

Instrument calculations have been added as follows:

– Flow Element Sizing

• Calculates the differential pressure and size of a Flow element

– Control Valve Sizing

• Calculates the flow, differential pressure and size of the valve

– Relief Valve Sizing

• Mainly used for gases and vapours. Calculates the size of the Relief

valve to control the pressure

– Thermowell Vibrations

• Calculates the frequency of resonance of the tapered thermowell

– Gas Compressibility Factor

• Also known as the compression factor, is a thermodynamic property for

modifying the ideal gas law to account for the real gas behaviour

The ability to print the calculation results has been added
