• Modelling Expansion Tanks

  FluidFlow doesn't include or allow an expansion tank to be modeled in-line in a system as this would tend to be a dynamic type of scenario (fluctuating pressure/expansion) whereas in FluidFlow we tend to be solving static system conditions. Queries ...

• Modelling Steam Traps

  FluidFlow doesn't have a steam trap node as such however, you can model steam/condensate systems and in doing so, set up the model to solve with or without steam traps. The image below which is taken from the Help file offers a description of this. ...
