PIPE-FLOŽ Stock


PIPE-FLO Stock is fluid flow software to design, analyze, and troubleshoot piping systems used in pulp and paper mills. PIPE-FLO Stock uses the method outlined in the TAPPI TIS 0410-14 to calculate the pressures and flow rates throughout the system; it shows the interaction of pipes, pumps, and controls in a paper stock piping system.

  • Draw your system using a flow sheet format with no size limits
  • Design pipelines using pipe, valve, and fluid electronic data tables
  • Select pumps using manufacturers' electronic catalogs
  • Visualize how different pipelines, components, pumps and controls work as a system
  • Troubleshoot the system to identify, isolate and correct problem areas
  • Calculate pipeline pressure drop for paper stock systems

 "The accuracy built into the PIPE-FLO Professional is present in PIPE-FLO Stock. It uses tried and true methods for paper stock pressure drop calculations. New users can come up to speed quickly and become productive very easily. The folks at Engineered Software have worked hard to develop a package that is useable on a daily basis."

With PIPE-FLO Stock you can:

Design - With No Program Size Limits! The FLO-Sheet enables you to draw your system with easy to use CAD-like drawing tools in a familiar flow sheet format. To modify pipelines, pumps, and components, just point, click and make virtually any change! Pressures and flow rates that exceed your pre-defined limits are highlighted on the FLO-Sheet to call your attention to potential problems. In addition to the big picture view, you can use the pan and zoom features to focus in on the smaller details.

Analyze - See How the Pieces Work Together! PIPE-FLO Stock shows how different components work within your new or existing piping system, allowing you to visualize how your system will operate. Using manufacturers' catalogs on disk you'll be able to choose the most efficient pump or control valve for your system, thus minimizing your operating cost.

Troubleshoot - Evaluate the Entire System!  When troubleshooting a piping project, you must have the power to look at the entire system in order to identify and isolate the problem areas. Unlike other piping design programs on the market today, PIPE-FLO Stock gives you the power to evaluate the operation of your entire system, including pumps, control valves and other components.
