    02. What file formats can AutoPIPE Vessel import?

    Applies To
    Product(s): AutoPIPE Vessel
    Version(s): V8i 
    Environment: N/A

    Problem:

    What file formats can AutoPIPE Vessel import?

    Answer:

    AutoPIPE Vessel can save a model as different file types using:

    1. File > Open> command:

    a. AutoPIPE Vessel Data (*.emvd)

    b. AutoPIPE Vessel Project specification (*.empd)

    2. Import> command:

    a. PDS to AutoPIPE Vessel - (*.noz)

    b. Structural Clips - (*.doc) or (*.xls)

    c. Piping Clips - (*.doc) or (*.xls)

    d. Local loads on Nozzles - (*.doc)

    e. AspenTech to AutoPIPE Vessel - (*.edr) or (*.taf)

    f. HTRI Xchanger to AutoPIPE Vessel - (*.dbo)

    g. Prosim EXCH to AutoPIPE Vessel - (*.xml)

    h. Honeywell UniSim STE to AutoPIPE Vessel - (*.stef)

    Note: as of Jan 2016, is not possible to import the geometrical data of a 3D model (Solidworks), please check back for future version ability

    If a specific format is not listed above (i.e. ANSYS) AutoPIPE Vessel cannot import that type of file at this time. See the 2 available options:

    1. use another application to convert your file into a format that is listed above for AutoPIPE Vessel to import.

    2. Log a service request for the missing format to be imported. The more request for a feature, the quicker the feature will be added to the program.
