Applies To Product(s): Plantflow Version(s): 06.02.xx.xx and higher Area: Download, Install, License Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group Important : Bentley PlantFLOW is compatible with: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Vista x64, Windows XP x64, Windows 7, Windows 7 x64. This does not mean that the software cannot be run on another operating systems not specified in the readme file, but that it has not been tested/certified by the CAE development team to be installed on another OS. The user can try to install the application on any OS. However, Bentley cannot be held liable for results or provide technical support for installation on untested systems. One may consider installing the application on a Virtual machine running a supported OS. 1. Download PlantFLOW Since PlantFLOW has been deprecated, it is no longer available for download from Bentley's Software Download site. User must submit a Bentley Case mention this WIKI and request a link to download the application. 2. Install PlantFLOW This new version of PlantFLOW is able to run on 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows XP, VISTA, Win 7, Note: Bentley cannot be held responsible for results from an installation of this software on an Operating System that is not specified in the application's read-me file. Installing and all output results from Bentley PlantFLOW on these other OS is at your own risk.

Wiki Page: 23. Why reactions at the bracket support are not matching with the hand calculations?
Applies To Product(s): AutoPIPE Vessel Version(s): ALL Area: General Date Logged & Current Version August 2023 43.01.01.011 Problem: Why reactions at the bracket support are not matching with the hand calculations? Also, there was no bending moment and deflections are shown in the graph below the bracket support. Answer: We should enter the suitable value at support beam elevation, Refer below snap. For example, change the elevation to 2000mm and see the results as below. Now you will see the bending moment and deflection at below support location as well. Also the reactions will match with the manual calculations. See Also Bentley AutoPIPE Vessel Support Solutions & FAQ's Calculations

Wiki Page: W726-37: Expansion at (load-case) is outside of temperature range at point XXX for material YYYY.... warning message in AutoPIPE, why?
Applies To Product(s): AutoPIPE, Version(s): All Area: Warning, Library Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group Problem: While using AutoPIPE, the following warning appears, W726-37: Expansion at T1 is outside of temperature range at point XXX for material YYYY Why? How to resolve? Solution: There are a number of reasons why this warning would appear: Reason #1: According to the Library data and material properties specified, temperature load case(s) may be requesting a library value that is outside of the range of data in the library. Review the material's library information to confirm temperature setting is within the data range specified in the library. A. Start AutoPIPE, and select Tool> Library> Table type = Spec, Library name = B313-18, Action = Scan: Press OK button B. AutoPIPE Viewer should automatically start. C. Find the SPECIFICATION material in the document using the search tool (example: A312-TP304L). D. Noticed the temperature range for the Specific material (example: = -425 deg F to 1500 deg F) . If the temperature setting is outside of this range for this information the warning will be displayed. Question: Is this the only place to look for Material Information ? Answer : Correct, NO! e. Again, select Tool> Library> Table type = Material, Library name = B313-18, Action = Scan: Press OK button f. AutoPIPE Viewer should automatically start. g. Find the Material referenced from the SPEC table above in the document using the search tool (example: AU-TYPE 304). D. Noticed the temperature range for the Material table (example: = -325 deg F to 1400 deg F) . If the temperature setting is outside of this range for this information the warning will be displayed. Reason #2: If a new customized material library has been created and used, the warning above may appear if there are problems with the material file. Review the SRC file and compiled errors to determine any potential problems. As mentioned above, if the temperature setting is outside the library's range, then the message above would be displayed. However, AutoPIPE would automatically linearly interpolate Expansion data, other data will use last value in material library, to be used in the analysis. Again the user has the option to suppress these warnings at their discretion. Workaround: 1. Select a different material that has data ranges on both tables that meet or exceed the Temperature setting. 2. Create a custom material library that extends the temperature and respective data ranges. FAQs: Question: Do you know why the allowable for 304L is set so low? Answer : When it comes to questions related to why the material temperature range is not more inclusive, the answer is because of the resource used for the material file had such a limited range of temperatures. Again, user can choose from the workarounds mentioned above. See Also Warnings Messages displayed in AutoPIPE Bentley AutoPIPE

Wiki Page: > Log a Case for AutoPIPE Technical support
Problem: I need Technical support for AutoPIPE, How do I log a Case and get an answer to my questions? Solution: Every problem with AutoPIPE should start by logging a new Case. Each Case has a unique number associated to it to enable easy tracking of a reported issues. When contacting Bentley, any analyst can refer to that number and have immediate access to all the account information and details on all communication between the user, analyst, and development team's responses. Users are warned against contacting Bentley Personnel directly with technical questions as these people can be out of the office and take a while to respond. By logging a Case, the available analyst will become aware of the new problem and take appropriate action. The user will also receive an automated reply that they can reply to with extra information or files (strongly advised to include all models, screenshots, etc. in one ZIP file), and CC additional people as necessary. This workflow guarantees that every issue is properly logged, all parties are well informed, anyone can quicky see at a glance the current status, and all communications can are accurately recorded for future reference. There are 4 different options to log a Bentley Service Request: Option #1: General Procedure using AutoPIPE or complete Portal training material - here Option #2: CONNECTION Center Option #3: Using www.bentley.com Option #4: Call Bentley by phone - click here Contact Bentley Systems Inc by phone and request that a Service Ticket be logged for you. The user can verify, review, and add to a case after successfully submitting it to Bentley, and shortly after that, Bentley Technical Support will contact them by phone or email to further discuss the problem. In the event of an email response, Bentley's Case Manager will only be able to properly update the case and alert the designated Bentley Analyst that the case has an update by responding to these precisely prepared emails. You can add more recipients to these specially designed email communications, as was already explained. Note, all emails that are sent to support@bentely.com that are not formatted correctly maybe lost and never responded to. If you see: "Access Denied" message Only people who have the correct User Entitlement can log a service request. If you were denied access, please contact your Bentley On-site Admin to ensure that you have the correct privileges enabled. If you continue to have troubles logging a new case call your local Bentley Office for support.
