Engineered Software, Inc. Releases PIPE-FLO Compressible 2005

Lacey, Washington – Engineered Software, Inc., the leading provider of software used to design and simulate the operation of fluid piping systems, announced the release of its PIPE-FLO Compressible 2005 program. The newly released version contains major functionality improvements from Compressible Version 8.0 which was released in 2003.

"PIPE-FLO Compressible 2005 is the ideal solution for anyone who designs, builds, operates or maintains steam or gas piping systems," said Ray Hardee, Vice President of Engineering at Engineered Software, Inc. "Like earlier versions of the program, Compressible 2005 is an extremely powerful calculation engine. In the newest version of the program, significant improvements in functionality have been made. These improvements make it even easier for users to visualize, calculate, communicate and access information."

While the mathematical engine that drives the calculation aspect of the program hasn’t changed, the functionality of the program has improved significantly. Creating an intuitive program that is easy-to-use has always been a priority at Engineered Software, Inc.

"We have thousands of users throughout our PIPE-FLO product line. We spend a great deal of time listening to our customers and learning how they actually use the program. Then we create solutions that meet their needs," Hardee said. "The fact that Compressible 2005 can conduct more than 1,000 calculations per second is important. But just as important is that the program is simple to use. New customers can become efficient users of the program in hours. With limited ramp-up time needed, the productivity of our customers can increase quickly."

Functionality improvements in Compressible 2005 include improved zoom and pan features, the ability to create customized toolbars, the ability to easily split pipes and the ability to display and edit important design information in different locations as determined by the user.

The PIPE-FLO product line is used by designers and operators to gain a clear picture of their fluid piping systems. The program allows users to visualize their systems in a familiar format, calculate system operations, easily communicate the design with others and access supporting documents in electronic format.
