Case Study: Pilot Chemical Company streamlines dynamic mixing calculations with Datacor AFT Arrow

Pilot Chemical Company models 4 gas streams with Datacor’s AFT Arrow

Pilot Chemical Company needed to perform dynamic mixing calculations for compressible gas flow in a system with multiple streams of different fluids mixing together. To achieve this, they utilized AFT Arrow software and the Chempak Database from vendor Datacor, which is required for this specific type of analysis.

The solution implemented by Datacor involved using the Chempak Database within AFT Arrow to define individual pure gases and custom gas mixtures for each flow stream. After the model was run, AFT Arrow successfully calculated the flow rates, pressures, temperatures, and the resulting mixed fluid compositions downstream of the mixing point. This provided Pilot Chemical Company with a powerful and accurate method to model their complex compressible flow system.
