Engineering Simulation Tools

Design and troubleshoot multiple levels of your engineering projects with Datacor’s suite of simulation software.

CHEMCAD

Modern chemical process simulation software designed with the engineer's workflow in mind to help efficiently identify innovative solutions.

Fathom

Calculate steady-state hydraulic pressure drop and pipe flow distribution in liquid and low-velocity gas piping and ducting systems.

Arrow

Determine the pressure drop and flow distribution, analyze sonic choking, and model real gases in steady-state gas and steam piping systems.

Impulse

Analyze pumping systems for harmful pressure surge transients caused by water hammer.

xStream

Analyze high-speed, acoustic transients that occur in steam and gas piping systems.

Precisely rate and design heat exchangers

Model thermal performance to assess key parameters such as UA, approach temperature, and pressure drop; iterate designs and export vendor-ready datasheets for shell-and-tube or plate heat exchangers.

Generate Exchanger Data

Design Vessels for Reliable Phase Separation

Simulate two- and three-phase separators to calculate residence time, required vapor space, and liquid levels; confirm vapor–liquid or liquid–liquid splits and pressure drops under industrial-scale conditions.

Size Your Vessel

Optimize distillation column internals and reflux ratios

Evaluate column performance to determine stage count, tray efficiency, and pressure drop; iterate designs and export detailed column rating reports.

Rate Your Column

Analyze stripper and absorber performance

Simulate absorber and stripper columns to assess tray and packing configurations, verify separation efficiency, and evaluate pressure drops under full-scale conditions.

Model Separation Performance

Determine pump and compressor performance

Calculate polytropic head, suction conditions, and power requirements for pumps or compressors using real-gas property models; input performance curves and let CHEMCAD calculate work and discharge pressures.

Evaluate Pumps & Compressors

Integrate process skid modules and control strategies

Combine individual process equipment into a full-skid dynamic simulation to test controls, startup sequences, and safety logic prior to Factory Acceptance Testing.
