CAESAR II Product Overview

CAESAR II is a comprehensive program for pipe stress analysis. CAESAR II has become the standard for pipe stress analysis, preferred by major corporations and engineering firms worldwide. It is the program by which all others are measured.

CAESAR II includes a full range of the latest international piping codes. It provides static and dynamic analysis of pipe and piping systems and evaluates FRP (fiber reinforced plastic); buried piping; wind, wave, and earthquake loading; expansion joints, valves, flanges and vessel nozzles; pipe components; and nozzle flexibilities. The program automatically models structural steel and buried pipe and provides spectrum and time history analysis and automatic spring sizing. CAESAR II includes component databases and an extensive material database with allowable stress data. It also includes a bi-directional link to COADE`s CADWorx Plant drafting package.

The program`s interactive capabilities permit rapid evaluation of input and output, a perfect match for the iterative `design and analyze` cycle, and the easy-to-use menu-driven interface makes all the needed options available at the click of the mouse or keystroke. Context-sensitive help provides instant technical assistance. Data values depicted in the help screens are automatically presented in the current set of units to make input easier.

PVElite Product Overview

A comprehensive program for the design or analysis of tall towers and horizontal vessels according to ASME Section VIII Division 1 and Division 2, PD 5500 and EN 13445. Mechanical design of heat exchangers is available per TEMA, ASME and PD5500. The program also includes modules for most vessel components including nozzles, flanges, baserings, and WRC107, and fitness for service.

PVElite is a comprehensive program for the complete structural design or analysis of tall towers and horizontal vessels according to latest standards from ASME, PD 5500 (British Code), UBC, EN 13445, API-579 and the Welding Research Council.

PVElite evaluates the entire vessel, analyzing the effects of vessel deadweight and bending due to wind and seismic loads. It combines these overall loads with pressure to design and/or check vessel wall thickness. Basing stress calculations on this total structural load ensures sufficient wall thickness for the vessel in its operating environment and ensures proper design of the vessel supports.

Element types include cylindrical shells; elliptical, spherical, torispherical, conical and flat heads; conical sections (including knuckles); body flanges; and skirts with base ring details. The program provides base ring, saddle, leg and lug design and also includes modules for analyzing vessel components such as nozzles, flanges, base ring and other vessel components.

To make the design process easy, the status bar constantly displays the position of the current element, its required thickness, its maximum allowable working pressure and its maximum allowable pressure in the new and cold condition. Graphic presentation keeps your data organized and confirms the integrity of the model.
