2013 Platinum Pipe Award Winner - Correlation to test/field data   Schuyler Engineering was asked to confirm a 2010 study that recommended that Rockland Psychiatric Center convert to using low pressure steam. Modifications would cost over one million dollars, so constructing a model would give further confidence to the previous study and determine if the conversion to low pressure steam should proceed.     Click here to read the case study and learn how AFT Arrow test results validated previous study results.   Schuyler Engineering is a professional consulting firm specializing in the evaluation, engineering, design, permitting and construction supervision of heating...

DuPont experienced severe operational problems on a new product line that put at risk a multimillion dollar investment. The system involved pumping of a non-Newtonian fluid which behaved as a Power Law fluid. AFT Fathom’s unique capability to model valves and fittings was critical to identifying the cause of the problem and guiding the solution. DuPont engineer Dan Wood teamed with AFT President Trey Walters to present a technical paper this week at the 28th International Pump User Symposium in Houston, Texas. There they presented the problem and resolution which involved a new valve and fitting calculation method developed by AFT...
