AFT xStream Basic Training

Steady-state compressible flow is hard. Waterhammer transient analysis is hard. Combine the two, and compressible transient analysis can challenge even the most experienced hydraulics engineers.

Enter AFT xStream, a tool built from decades of AFT’s hydraulics expertise applying the features you’ve come to expect from AFT to a new type of analysis.

This introductory webinar will highlight the unique challenges of compressible flow in transient analysis, demonstrate an analysis of a tank blowdown event, and provide some tips to improve your model runtime and result accuracy.
