In a highly organized, flexible and friendly environment, the user establishes the design requirements and the software performs all calculations and analysis necessary for sizing of the fan:
Adjusts the parameters in accordance with the fluid properties.
Simulates the use of each type and size of fan.
Calculates diameter and width of the fan impeller.
Calculates the operating rotational speed.
Analyzes the performance and suggests the most suitable fans.
Generates a selection list with sorting and filtering capabilities.
Plots performance curves of the selected fan, such as the following:
Flow Rate × Static Pressure or Total Pressure
Flow Rate × Power - Brake Horsepower
Flow Rate × Static Efficiency or Total Efficiency
Flow Rate × Noise - Sound Pressure Level
Frequency Inverter and Electric Motor
Multiple Variable Graphs
In ventilation systems with variable demand, the use of adjustable speed drives is usually the best way to ensure maximum efficiency and minimum energy consumption.
Under such circumstances, it is essential that the designer has a broad view of the behavior of the fan to be selected.
Our software has the most advanced engineering charts with high resolution details, which show characteristic curves throughout the operating speed range of the fans.

The centrifugal pumps market is one of the most competitive in the fluid handling industry, with a large number of manufacturers and suppliers around the world.
To secure a prominent position and increase the competitiveness of their products, leading companies are providing computer programs that ensure the correct application of these products.
Unfortunately, in pumping systems it is not unusual to find that inaccurate sizing ends up compromising the credibility of high quality products.
Pump Software Icon
Our centrifugal pump software is a dynamic tool that accurately performs hydraulic selection and sizing of rotodynamic pumps. It is equally effective for special design pumps and standard pumps according to:
ANSI - American National Standards Institute
