BOSfluids 7.0: : Extended vessel, tank and orifice models

The latest BOSfluids release brings improved and extended Surge Vessel, Tank and Orifice element types. The Surge Vessel element has been extended with support for modeling vented air vessels.
Dynaflow presents at 14th Pressure Surges Conference in Eindhoven

In April of this year Dynaflow Research Group will present two papers at the International Conference on Pressure Surges.
BOSfluids 7.0: Improved model building user interface

The latest BOSfluids release comes with a new set up of the first two top-level tab pages in the user interface
BOSfluids 7.0: Parameter studies in steady state analyses

BOSfluids not only provides support for sophisticated transient analyses, but also provides robust and increasingly advanced support for steady state and quasi steady state analyses. This is highlighted by the latest BOSfluids release that extends the steady state analysis type with support for parameter studies.
BOSfluids: Improved and more efficient user interface

The new BOSfluids release brings many small and large improvements to its user interface that make it even more efficient and versatile.
BOSpulse 5.0: Improved model building user interface

The upcoming BOSpulse release, version 5.0, comes with a new set up of the first two top-level tab pages in the user interface. This change improves the distinction between the actions that operate on the main model and those that operate on a sub-scenario. This change makes it possible to skip the Scenarios tab page […]
Upcoming BOSfluids release offers a steady state license option

BOSfluids is mostly known and used for transient flow analyses. However, it also provides a robust, fast and accurate steady state flow solver that can handle systems filled with liquids or gases. The upcoming BOSfluids 7.0 will offer a steady state license option that makes BOSfluids a very capable and cost-effective solution for the analysis […]
BOSfluids: Two-phase flood and drain analyses

When an empty, or gas filled, piping system is rapidly filled with a liquid, then significant forces can be exerted by the liquid on the system, especially when the liquid hits a significant flow restriction or the end point of a pipeline section. Indeed, there have been multiple incidents involving firewater systems in which these […]
Coupled Thermodynamic BOSfluids-Jive Simulations

BOSfluids Thermodynamic Module BOSfluids is known for its steady state, quasi steady state and transient flow solvers and the more recent interface to the structural solver of ANSYS. Recently the steady state solver of BOSfluids has been extended with a thermodynamic module. That is, given thermal boundary conditions, BOSfluids calculates the temperature profile within the […]
BOSfluids: Improved pump model and user interface

Pump failure is a common cause of problematic transient flow conditions in piping systems. Simulation of pump failure is therefore an effective way to assess the robustness of a piping system before actual damage can occur. The pump model implemented by BOSfluids uses built-in pump curves to simulate the operating conditions of a pump after […]
