    Description:

    Bentley AutoPIPE CONNECT Edition v12.2 (v12.02.00.14) - English

    Bentley AutoPIPE CONNECT Edition is a stand-alone, engineering application for the calculation of piping stresses, fatigue stresses, fluid transient, bowing or thermal transient analysis, flange or pipe support design, and equipment nozzle loading analysis under static and dynamic loading conditions. In addition to 30+ piping codes, AutoPIPE incorporates ASME, JSME, British Standard, European, API, NEMA, ANSI, ASCE, AISC, UBC, GOST and WRC guidelines and design limits to provide a comprehensive analysis of the entire system.

    This new release provides new features, critical code updates, and enhanced product interoperability. This is a product generation update for AutoPIPE CONNECT (v12.02.00.14) which includes several bug fixes plus the following new features:

    What is New & Changed in AutoPIPE

    The following outline identifies new features and enhancements in the AutoPIPE CONNECT Edition version 12.2: 

    Piping Codes

    • Added BS EN 13480-3:2017 for design criteria and stress calculation of industrial metallic piping systems, including supports.

    Reports

    • SQLite Input and Output reports are now certified for commercial use and employ improved dialogs, a progress bar, and maintain a standard and consistent text format.
    • SQLite Input Listing reports have been improved to include more model coverage, printed in tabular format: Cut Short, Out-of-Roundness, Additional Weight, Hydrodynamic Data, User Weld Factor, Nozzle, Flexible Joint, and Anchor.
    • The SQLite Report Manager is now certified for commercial use with the added ability to generate reports in Microsoft® Excel® and standard text format.
    • The Time History Output report can now be filtered to remove very small numeric values (which are of no practical importance).

    Analysis

    • An option has been added to define and analyze gross discontinuity stress using a standard, more conservative method. With this method, a single value of gross discontinuity stress can be entered at a node point for each thermal case.
    • The Support Optimization feature, used to identify optimal support solutions, is now available for testing to all users. [Technology Preview ] 
    • Corrosion allowance is now available for Flange Analysis.

    General

    • A logging mechanism has been added to capture the success/failure of program operations. This log file is a valuable tool for the Bentley Technical Support team to troubleshoot issues.
    • The Open Recent Models dialog has been improved to expand the number of recently used models, show a preview of a selected model, and display relevant file details.

    Documentation

    • A Supplemental Documentation button has been added to the Help ribbon to access a set of Supplemental White Papers, How To Procedures, Tutorials, and Reference Information documents in PDF format within the main program help.
    • Nonlinear Analysis diagrams and associated program documentation have been improved.

    Interoperability

    • Models can now be exported to a CAESAR II C2 file (compatible with CAESAR 2016 and higher). This eliminates the extra step of importing a CAESAR II neutral file and provides for more fidelity. B31.1 and B31.3 Piping Codes are also supported.  [Technology Preview ] 
    • The PCF Translator has been enhanced with a new user interface and context-sensitive help to improve the user experience and workflow. .

    Isometrics

    • Isometric drawings have been improved to include updated support symbols for better visibility. 

    Security Release Notes

    • Not applicable to this release.

     Technology Previews - Provide users preliminary access to features currently in development but not yet ready for production. These features are provided at no additional charge to promote awareness of a feature or technology to be deployed in a future release. Users are encouraged to provide feedback and suggestions. Now all Technology previews are available in the application. These commands have '[Technology Preview]' displayed in the tool tip.

    Validation Certificate:

    Program Name: AutoPIPE CONNECT Edition v.12.02
    Revision or Version Number: v12.02.00.14

    The above computer program has been validated by both manual and automated testing procedures as part of a comprehensive product test plan consisting of more than 700 verification and validation test cases. Software quality metrics are defined against a quality standard established by existing and historical commercial versions of the program. Bentley Systems, Inc. maintains a quality assurance program t hat controls the life cycle activities of this computer program for the design of nuclear safety related piping in compliance with ASME NQA-1-2008/ 2009a, 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B, and 10 CFR Part 21 quality standards. Test plans and validation data are on file at Bentley's Walnut Creek, California, USA office. 

    Support for this computer program is described in Bentley SELECT Program Agreement and includes 24/7 telephone, email, and web based support along with free upgrades and updates as they become available.
