Program startup: The program startup has been optimised. Now the data sent and received during the startup can be up to 60 times less, which leads to bandwidth savings and higher load speed, mainly observable when slow connections are used. Heat Balance: Fluids have now new properties, Specific heat gas...

Images: Now it is possible to copy into the clipboard the images generated by the program (a watermark with the logo is added at the bottom right corner). Just open the image into a new window (zoom) by doing a double click on it and do Ctrl+C afterwards. If you...

Licenses: A fix has been applied to the license update procedure to solve a particular scenario in which users could not update their licenses once they had expired and renewed again. Fluids: There are two new properties: Specific heat for gas at constant pressure (cp) and Dynamic viscosity for gas....

Projects: In previous versions, the new project that was shown right after the application has been opened was not being shared despite the user preferences. This flaw has been fixed. Now, whenever the application is run the shown project is being shared (or not) with the groups that the user...

Fluids: The molar gas constant also known as gas constant or ideal gas constant, has been updated. This value is internally used by the application for the calculation of the Vapour Density in condensation calculations. The former used value was 8.314472 J·mol-1·K-1 as defined in "CODATA recommended values of the...

Thermal Balance: Fluids: Fixed a problem in the data table that prevented users from removing values. The figures were visually removed from the interface but the underlying data remained in the table.Fluids: Fixed a rounding problem in the data table (temperature column) when values of other columns were edited in...

Thermal Balance: Thermal Conductivity:: In previous versions thermal conductivity of materials (AISI 304, 316, 316L, Ti, etc) used in tubes was considered to be a constant for all of them. This part of the program has been enhanced so that thermal conductivity behaves as a variable function depending on temperature....

Geometry: Automatically use all tubes available: When the number of tubes is left as 0 and a calculation launched, it is assumed that all avaiable tubes are to be used. When the calculations are finished, this field is updated with the value of maximum number of tubes. Monotubes: When then...

New option to use sealing strips in calculations with baffles.Laminar/Turbulent regime calculation for cases with baffles, now takes into account Reynolds=100 as the only limit among the two possible flow-types (there is no transition zone when calculations are done with full baffle support).Changes in Geometry so that values of Minimum...

During baffles calculations, CentralBaffleSpacing_Lbc now takes into account the cummulative thickness of all baffles.Shell hydraulic diameter, when calculated with full baffles (not the support option), now is set to be equal to the external diameter of the tubes.In the fluid velocity calculations, baffles are now taken into account, when they...
