PHASER Engineering Suite v1.0.13 – Specialized Hydraulic Calculation and Pipeline System Design Software for Large Industrial Enterprises

PHASER Engineering Suite is a specialized engineering software package for hydraulic calculations and design of pipeline systems for large industrial enterprises. Unlike tools that calculate individual isolated points, PHASER enables engineers to model and evaluate the hydraulics of the entire plant structure in a single, integrated environment.

The software supports hydraulic calculations for both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, improving the accuracy of designing complex chemical processes. It automatically calculates and distributes process flow parameters throughout the model based on input heat and mass balance (HMB) data. Pressure calculations for pumps and compressors are performed using actual equipment performance curves, and the software automatically creates 3D models of systems based on equipment layouts and geometry—with calculations linked directly to this geometry.
