PV Elite is a professional pressure vessel design software developed by COADE, the computing division of Hexagon Corporation in the United States, providing a comprehensive solution for rapid and widespread pressure vessel design in the processing industry.
In the field of pressure vessel design, PV Elite offers a wide range of functionalities, enabling the rapid design of vertical, horizontal vessels, and heat exchangers, while also addressing the needs for overall equipment design, wall thickness calculation principles, and stress analysis. For vertical, horizontal vessels, and heat exchangers, PV Elite provides a comprehensive design solution.
Additionally, PV Elite can reassess the defects and service life of existing vessels (in accordance with API 579 standards), helping users better understand the operational status of vessels and enhance equipment safety performance. Furthermore, for individual components within pressure vessels, PV Elite can perform simulation analyses based on existing general safety regulations (i.e., CodeCalc), meeting the design requirements of various equipment components.
