By applying an automatic model refinement algorithm, BOSfluids can accurately simulate the steady flow of gases through piping systems. Its accuracy has been further improved in the latest release by implementing more accurate models for the gas flow through inline restrictions such as valves and orifice plates. In particular, the density of the gas flowing through the restriction is no longer assumed to be constant. Both sub-critical and critical flow conditions are accounted for. This not only improves the accuracy of the calculated flow rates and pressures in the system, but also improves the accuracy with which AIV assessments can be carried out.
