How to Ensure Safe Design of Pressure Vessels and Heat Exchangers with PV Elite
Pressure Vessels and Heat Exchangers: Why Safety Matters with PV Elite
Pressure vessels and heat exchangers are essential components in plants and offshore facilities. Their safe operation is crucial to maintain production and protect the well-being of workers. Unfortunately, we've seen accidents occur due to poorly designed components or, in some cases, no design at all. These accidents can lead to personal injuries, environmental damage, and financial losses, damaging a company's reputation.
How to Improve Pressure Vessel and Heat Exchanger Design Using PV Elite
In the past, designers used to perform complex calculations by hand to ensure the safety of pressure vessels. This process could take days or even weeks to complete, and a simple mistake could have disastrous consequences. Additionally, any design changes required extensive recalculations.
Today, the challenges are different. We have tighter deadlines, and we need to get designs right from the start. Designers now rely on reliable software like PV Elite that contains all the necessary safety checks and has been rigorously tested and verified. They also prefer software with user-friendly interfaces to boost productivity.

Advanced Analysis and Reporting: A Step-by-Step Guide in PV Elite
To simplify inspection requirements, PV Elite lists the most important equations, such as required thickness and maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP), and groups results by type (e.g., internal pressure, external pressure, bending stress, nozzles, and flanges). Overall results are summarized, identifying the element or detail controlling the vessel's overall MAWP. You can quickly send analysis results to output reports or export them in your preferred file format, like Word or PDF.
