product sheet • Tubesheet Design and Analysis Intergraph® PV Elite® is a complete solution for vessel and heat exchanger design, analysis, and evaluation. Users of PV Elite have designed equipment for the most extreme uses and have done so quickly, accurately, and profitably. • Rectangular and Non-Circular Vessel Analysis Data Collection • Individual Component Analysis PV Elite makes defining pressure boundary conditions for vessels and exchangers • Cutting-edge Graphics easy, even for load sets that require significant data input. PV Elite streamlines data • Design Tools and Wizards entry by breaking the input down into sensible subsets. Help on any input item is only • Vessel Design and Analysis • Exchanger Design and Analysis • Comprehensive Error Checking • Saddle, Leg, and Skirt Design • Analysis for Horizontal Shipping of Vertical Vessels • User-definable Reports • Wind Analysis Graphics PV Elite’s graphical representation of analysis models helps ensure confidence in the input and results. With PV Elite, you can view and manipulate analysis models with complete ease. • Seismic Analysis Analysis Options • International Vessel Codes PV Elite performs calculations in accordance with ASME Section VIII Divisions 1 & 2, • Extensive Material Databases PD 5500, and EN 13445. Rules from API 579 (Fitness for Service) are also included for • Steel Databases and Modeling evaluating the current state and remaining life of existing vessels. • Links to Intergraph CADWorx® Plant Professional • Links to Intergraph PV Fabricator™ To simplify inspection requirements, PV Elite lists the most important equations, such as required thickness and maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP), and also groups results by type (e.g., internal pressure, external pressure, bending stress, nozzles, and flanges). It summarizes overall results where it identifies the element or detail controlling the overall vessel MAWP. Materials and Codes PV Elite is a global package with international code rules plus extensive region-specific content. Vessel material definitions, piping and steel component data, local wind loads, and local seismic loads of many regional markets are all included. Interfaces PV Elite interfaces with other popular software packages for finite element analysis, foundation design, and drafting. PV Elite also shares a bi-directional link to Intergraph CADWorx® Plant Professional module and PV Fabricator™.
