They empower THERMOFLEX / PEACE to rapidly create physical designs for major equipment and BOP, either automatically based on the built-in logic, or based on the user’s selctions and inputs if desired. These additional PEACE components include design creation knowledge, similar to what is available at the component level in Thermoflow’s dedicated expert programs. On its own, it is a comprehensive heat balance program, which compares favorably in functionality and license price with any other heat balance software.Ĭombining THERMOFLEX with the PEACE module takes it beyond heat balanceĪdding PEACE to THERMOFLEX provides access to a set of more sophisticated engineered components.
The basic THERMOFLEX may be licensed on its own, or in combination with the PEACE module.
To cover special situations, and to satisfy users seeking full control, THERMOFLEX provides the option to overrule the default flow and pressure hierarchies and allows the users to write scripts to impose any desired logic on the network or components.Ĭomprehensive, stand-alone heat balance program The features which make THERMOFLEX so easy to use do not compromise flexibility.
Additionally, THERMOFLEX includes a family of “Logical Components” that help the user to implement sophisticated network control logic without the necessity to write code or scripts. The program has a unique approach: a default hierarchy of pressure and flow dictators will automatically create, by default, a solution for a new design of any common type of power or cogeneration plant. THERMOFLEX is easier to use than most other general purpose heat balance programs because it does not require the user to supply initial values or write code or scripts to create a successful working model. User-friendly network-solver and Logical Components THERMOFLEX can also model general thermal power systems and networks, and fulfills the need of some customers for a single, "jack-of-all-trades" program. The program covers both design and off-design simulation, and models all types of power plants, including combined cycles, conventional steam cycles, and repowering as well as a wide range of renewable energy plants and systems. It is a fully flexible program with a graphic user interface in which the user creates a thermal system network by selecting, dragging, dropping and connecting icons representing over two hundred different components. THERMOFLEX ® is the only program in Thermoflow’s suite which can be placed in the category that engineers commonly refer to as “heat balance software”.
