BOSpulse 5.2 Improved And More Efficient User Interface

The new BOSpulse 5.2 release again brings many small and large improvements to its user interface that help you perform pulsation analyses more efficiently. One of the improvements concerns the addition of a new global preferences window that enables you to specify the default node number increment and the format to be used for displaying floating point numbers. This window also enables you to specify the default model settings, including the default vertical axis and the default model view mode. Last but not least, the preferences window enables you to select which aspects of a piping model are to be visible in the user interface. In this way, you can hide model parameters that are not of interest.

Another improvement involves the way in which “Dead End” flow boundary conditions are handled: warnings about implicit dead-end boundary conditions are no longer issued for the endpoints of PSD elements. The model viewer configuration window now also provides an option to disable the rendering of dead-end boundary conditions in the model viewer.

Other improvements to the user interface include: extension of the “ruler tool” with a standing wave calculator that shows the quarter-wave and half-wave frequencies for a selected piping section; support for highlighting the local maxima in a plot; improved rendering of unit labels; support for displaying force pair labels in the model viewer; support for specifying the resolution of snapshots of the model viewer; and an improved selection and composition mechanism for harmonics in the Results tab page;
