SimSci-Esscor Releases Improved Hydraulic Simulator for Multiphase Flow Networks; New PIPEPHASE reporting system allow engineers to analyze data and present results using familiar Excel spreadsheets.


LAKE FOREST, Calif. -- The SimSci-Esscor unit of Invensys Process Systems today announced the release of version 9.0 of its PIPEPHASE simulation program. Used in the design and analysis of oil and gas wells and associated production networks and processing facilities, PIPEPHASE software provides an integrated and extensible simulation solution for the upstream From the consumer to the provider. See downstream.

(networking) upstream - Fewer network hops away from a backbone or hub. For example, a small ISP that connects to the Internet through a larger ISP that has their own connection to the backbone is downstream from the larger
 exploration and production industry.

Version 9.0 features an improved system for generating pressure volume temperature (PVT) data and for integrating user-added PVT data. This provides the flexibility to utilize in-house-developed or third-party property packages. Further enhancements to the software include a completely revamped reporting system and a new zipped file See ZIP file.  format to allow the creation and transfer of larger working documents.

Using the new reporting system, engineers can generate, analyze, and present results directly in Microsoft(R) Office Excel spreadsheets The following is a list of spreadsheets. Freeware/open source software

 rigorously models steady-state multiphase flow In fluid mechanics, multiphase flow is a generalisation of the modelling used in two-phase flow to cases where the two phases are not chemically related (e.g. dusty gases) or where more than two phases are present (e.g. in modelling of propagating steam explosions).  in oil and gas networks and pipeline systems. It is built with the power and flexibility to model applications ranging from the sensitivity analysis of key parameters in a single well, to a multiyear facilities planning study for an entire field. It covers the complete range of fluids encountered in the petroleum industry, including single-phase fluids and black oil, as well as compositional mixtures.
