BOSpulse 5.2 Support For Custom Allowable Limits

custom allowable plot, custom allowable limits, BOSpulse, BOSpulse 5.2

BOSpulse has, for some time, provided limited support for specifying alternative allowable limits for pressure pulsations. The BOSpulse 5.2 release takes this support to the next level by enabling you to specify custom limits for all allowable limits that are defined in the API 618 and API 674 standards. Those custom limits can be applied […]

BOSpulse 5.2 Support For The 6th Edition Of The API 618 Standard

api 618 edition 6, api 618, BOSpulse, BOSpulse 5.2

The sixth and most recent edition of the API 618 standard is fully supported by the new BOSpulse release. Indeed, the updated allowable limits described by the sixth edition are now applied by default when you perform an API 618 analysis with BOSpulse. If desired, you can still choose to apply the allowable limits defined […]

BOSpulse 5.2 Improvement Of The Harmonic Solution Method

harmonic solution, harmonic flow solver, BOSpulse, BOSpulse 5.2

The harmonic flow solver that comes with BOSpulse has seen significant improvements regarding its accuracy, bringing it on par with the transient flow solver. As a consequence, you can speed up your pulsation analyses dramatically by switching from the transient solver to the harmonic solver. The harmonic solver now involves a non-linear solution method that […]

BOSpulse 5.2 Improved Management Of Scenario

BOSpulse 5.2 brings significant improvements to scenario management. These includes a complete redesign of the Scenarios dialog box which now shows a concise and clear overview of all differences between scenarios in a tabular format. The rows in this table are associated with the scenarios and the columns are associated with model parameters that are […]

BOSpulse 5.2 Improved Performance On Multi-core Processors

bosfluids, bosfluids 7.2, multi-core processors

While BOSpulse provides you with very fast flow solvers, the time required to run one or more analyses can never be short enough. The new BOSpulse release therefore comes with a new scheduling algorithm that ensures that all available processor cores are used in an optimal way, especially when transitioning from one simulation case to […]

BOSpulse 5.2 Extension Of The Components Database

The components database in BOSpulse has been extended with support for storing element and node definitions. This means that you can easily share the specifications of flow equipment, including valves, pumps and compressors, between multiple projects and with your colleagues. You can save and load element and node definitions in the Model and Scenarios tab […]

BOSpulse 5.2 Improved And More Efficient User Interface
