Description
PV Elite is a complete solution for the quick and comprehensive design of pressure vessel and heat exchanger design, analysis, and evaluation for the process industry. Intergraph PV Elite Productivity Training is one of the few pressure vessel and exchanger design and analysis courses combining technical knowledge with practical training.
PV Elite provides engineers, designers, estimators, fabricators and inspectors around the world with solutions that match their pressure vessel design requirements. Because the program is easy to learn and use, it is perfect for both full-time vessel designers and for those occasional users who require quick start up and confidence in their safety code calculations
The program considers the whole vessel, addressing all of the wall thickness rules and stress analysis requirements for vertical towers, horizontal vessels and heat exchangers. Or, individual pressure vessel components may be modeled and evaluated according to current safety codes.
Whether it’s a simple component check or a complete vessel design, PV Elite’s input, analysis and output have been designed to be clear accurate and concise.
