Datacor Impulse is a suite of tools that enables interactive model editing via a graphical user interface; the suite includes a built-in library of expert knowledge on water hammer. Applied Flow Technology Impulse allows you to create pipeline system designs with a higher degree of protection, reliability, and safety by eliminating potentially dangerous water hammer effects and other undesirable transient conditions.

Primary Features of Datacor Impulse

- Advanced transient solver based on the Method of Characteristics.

- Built-in steady-state solver to automatically initialize water hammer transients.

- Detailed pump inertial modeling for trips and start-ups, including state-of-the-art four-quadrant methods.

- Built-in library of fluids and fittings.

- Models liquid column separation caused by transient cavitation.

- Extensive cavitation modeling.

- Scenario Manager to track all design variants and operational possibilities in a single model file with data linkage.

- Comprehensive relief valve modeling.

- Integrated graphing and reporting.

- Animation features to dynamically plot transients.

- Create video files from animations to share your results.

- Generates force imbalance files that can be automatically imported into CAESAR II and TRIFLEX pipe stress dynamic models.

- Built-in intelligence to guide you in building better models.
