Software enables multiphase flow simulation
Latest software from Invensys Process Systems enables powerful multiphase flow simulation in plant utility and relief networks from within the SIM4ME Portal.
The reason for this is that more companies are becoming aware of the significant improvements that these vertical solutions deliver in terms of productivity, accuracy and faster production of documentation, says Ian Briffett, General Manager of Datech 2000.
"The message about the benefits of using the specially adapted versions of AutoCAD is gradually sinking in amongst the architectural and design communities", says Briffett.
"We have worked with Autodesk to ensure that everyone understands the advantages of the AEC portfolio and over the past year we have seen a steady rise in sales".
"It is very clear that companies which do adopt these solutions are seeing real benefits in terms of improved productivity and time-saving".
By using the Autodesk AEC solutions, designers are able to work in the familiar AutoCAD environment with purpose-built software tools developed for use in building design and documentation.
Discipline-specific tools and short-cuts have been provided to ensure accuracy and speed up the design process and document creation.
"It enables designers to spend more time designing and less time drafting and that's now starting to be properly understood in the industry" says Briffett.
The Autodesk AEC range is designed to help architects, engineers, builders, and owners achieve greater competitive advantage through better design information.
It provides advanced technology for building information modeling, the most widely adopted tools in the industry for design and documentation, and tools for supporting information and management needs throughout the building lifecycle.
