Process lines can be connected between any two know points, this will provide the user with the differences in moving from one point to the next. Additionally, this program will allow the user to perform some basic HVAC calculations that depend on psychrometrics. |

Check out our newest features of the software. New graphical interface that allows you to check your design at a glance. When complete, you can print out a sketch that can be used to summarize your design. Stackdes is based upon the industry accepted codes and guidelines. |
| Baseplt |
| This program simplifies the design and analysis of a base plates vessels or stack. The program can accommodate a single base plate or an anchor bolt chair. For base plates it can handle no gussets, one gusset per bolt, or two gussets per bolt. The program handles anchor chairs with segmented top plates, or continuous top plates with one or two gussets per bolt. Design of the plates, gussets, and local stress for the shell is performed. |
| StrucFlg |
| Have you ever had to design a plate flange for structural loads? Some examples of applications include derrick leg flanges, monopole flanges, and stack body flanges. These types of flanges are often difficult to design because there is not a commonly accepted procedure for the design of these types of flanges. STRUCFLG handles structural flanges either with or without gusset plates. The program also considers the preload that should be placed on the bolt in order to keep the joint in compression. |
MECA Wind02 |
| Calculates wind pressures per ASCE 7-02 “Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures” for all types of buildings and structures. Performs Gust calculations for Rigid and flexible structures, with the gust factor for flexible structures based upon the natural frequency and damping of the structure. Also calculates the topographic factors and provides a comprehensive list of all shape factors for the structure and attachments. MECAWind02 will handle babled, monoslope, hipped, multspan gabled, sawtooth, and stepped roofs. Different wind directions can be changed easily by re-entering the width and depth of the structure relative to the wind. All force coefficients are calculated for windward walls, leeward walls, side walls, roof’s perpendicular to ridge, roof’s parallel to ridge, and roof overhangs. MECAWind02 also calculates the force coefficients and wind pressures for Components and Cladding, simply by entering the width, span, and zone for the component. |

MECAWind05 can also be used to calculate wind loads on buildings greater than 60 ft in height. Different wind directions can be changed easily by re-entering the width and depth of the structure relative to the wind. All force coefficients are calculated for windward walls, leeward walls, side walls, roof’s perpendicular to ridge, roof’s parallel to ridge, and roof overhangs. MECAWind02 also calculates the force coefficients and wind pressures for Components and Cladding, simply by entering the width, span, and zone for the component. |

| Gas Compressor |
| This program computes the power required to compress any gas, the temperature required and the cooling required. As a side calculation, the program calculates the molecular weight of any gas mixture. |
| Gas Expander |
| Gas Expander is a powerful, user friendly, program for the analysis of expansion turbines. An expansion turbine (Turboexpander) is a device for converting the energy of a gas or vapor stream into mechanical work as the gas or vapor expands through the turbine. The expansion process occurs rapidly, and heat transferred to or from the gas is usually very small. Consequently, the exit temperature of the gas may be quite low. This feature allows the expander to find application as a component of refrigeration systems. The other use of Turboexpanders is in power recovery. When a large flow of gas is reduced from a high pressure to some lower pressure, or when high-temperature process streams are available at moderate pressures, the energy can be recovered to drive pumps, fans, etc. |
| Fan |
| This program calculates the power required for a fan moving air or any kind of gas mixture. It predicts the change of flow, head, power & sound level resulting from a change of fan speed or inlet temperature. A side calculation allows the properties of any gas mixture to be calculated so that they can be used as inputs to the main fan program. |
