Heat Balance: The detection of illogical cases for balances involving condensation on the shell side has been corrected. The issue will now be indicated more clearly with an error message. Batch Calculation: The "Power Limitation" field has been added to the report exported to Excel. And as usual... minor bug...

General: The unit of measurement for pressure differences is now bar or psi, depending on the applied unit system. Now pressures do always reference either they are absolute (bar-a o psi-a) or manometric pressures (bar-g o psi-g), except when they are pressure differences (deltas) as when dealing with pressure drops,...

Heat Balance: In shell-side condensation scenarios, Mass Vapor Fraction in is now properly checked when the free parameter is the shell outlet temperature. Geometry: The dropdown list for the Div. Plate Layout did not show any values when the Number of Passes selected was bigger than 1 (multipass heat exchangers)....

Geometry: A calculated multipass heat exchanger loses its status and goes back to be non-calculated when the Geometry page is no longer the active page and then the user goes back to it. This issue has been fixed. And as usual... minor bug fixes and improvements.

This is an unscheduled update to quickly fix an error introduced in the previous release. Geometry: Fix for multipass heat exchangers: The "Div. Plate Layout" dropdown was not showing the right options for 6 and 8 passes.

Geometry: New (internal) properties for materials which allow grouping them in Types (Steel, Aluminium, Copper, Nickel, Titanium) and Groups/Subgroups (for the Steel type). This information is needed, for instance, in order to classify materials and be able to select adequate formulae for mechanical calculations according to ASME VIII, PD 5500,...
