Flaretot.v1.2.1

Description

Advanced Flare System Audit Tool Because of the integrated approach, Flaretot Professional is highly suitable for carrying out the standard vertical and horizontal checks on major parts of the flare system audits, in particular: Vertical checks including determination of Relief Loads relief device calculations sizing checks on relief device inlet piping establishing minimum temperatures of vessels during depressurisation Horizontal checks including flare network header conformance to sizing criteria (e.g. Mach number) flare drum sizing ensuring all flaring scenarios have been addressed auditing of radiation dispersion and structural steel temperature rise with radiation and flare purge rates etc Full GUI Interface for Network Design with Data Linking to Modules At the core of Flaretot, is an intuitive easy-to-use windows style graphic user interface. The point and click and drag and drop design allows for rapid network unit definition and connectivity setup with a minimal amount of user training. The drawing space is also very flexible to allow for changes to the network during the life of a project. Engineering units for the piping network and all calculations are fully customisable with preset groups for project units and metric / British units. Selected network properties (Temperature, pressure, mass flow & mach number) can be shown of the network drawing to aid in finding a working solution rapidly give the user visual feedback on design problems or bottlenecks in the flare network. Colour coding is used to show unit status, for example where data is lacking, a unit is unsolved, encountered an error while solving, or is excluded from the current flaring case (defaults to greyed out). Properties for the network units and pipes are shown in a customisable format. Data can be exported to csv (Excel compatible format). Piping Class Estimation & Piping/Flare System Design to Project Criteria Piping in the flare network is piping class driven to permit rapid selection of pipe sizes. Custom pipe sizes can also be selected from the library of material / pipe schedules and custom wall thickness can be calculated from design conditions. The piping classes are generated based on standard (customisable) basic mechanical design parameters and piping material with a design pressure/temperature table. While not intending to replace actual detailed design pipe classes, it enables even study phase projects to closely match detailed design piping, thus minimising costly changes during the lifetime of a project. Individual pipes or selected groups of pipes can be sized automatically to meet project criteria based on velocity, mach number, Rho.v2 or maximum pressure. All these criteria can be specified concurrently or in any combination and the size will be adjusted based on the piping class sizes.
