Pipe Flow Modeling Software For Engineers

 

AFT Software Products Overview

AFT’s software tools are used to analyze piping and ducting systems in over 80 countries to help engineers design safer, more efficient systems and solve operational problems.

About

AFT Software

Whether you’re modeling gas or liquid piping systems, perfecting your system design, studying your system’s transient behavior or need fluid property data, AFT has the engineering software tools for you. Our industry-leading fluid dynamic simulation software is used by a variety of industries around the world to develop design solutions and troubleshoot existing systems.

Engineers use AFT for several reasons. The best reason is that AFT is a highly accurate calculation software that saves engineers from using extensive hand calculations or spreadsheets. What used to take days or weeks is able to be accomplished with AFT’s pipe flow software in a short amount of time. The man-hours companies save by using AFT modeling and simulation software pays for software several times over.

We might be biased, but when engineers tell us it is the best fluid flow software on the market… we can’t argue. Our staff of engineers has worked for years to ensure it is a tool which delivers solid modeling calculations, incorporates robust features, and give users an intuitive interface.

We look forward to working with you.

Transient

AFT xStream

Simulation tool for high-speed, acoustic transients that occur in steam and gas piping systems. Uncertainty in design and operations costs money and time. Now you can accurately simulate how your steam and gas systems will respond to potentially harmful transient events.
