All,

I know this is only partially a CFD related enquiry but still, for validation purposes, I wonder if you could recommend a

- commercial 1D flow solver package

- for compressible flow problems

- in and around pipes, ducts, bends, valves, diffusors, nozzles, etc.

Any preferences and how could I contact the suppliers? Any information would be greatly appreciated such as contact details, price, shareware details, validation cases etc.)?

Thanks a lot. Regards

Check SINDA/FLUINT (crtech.com) check Flowmaster (There are at least two other programmes in this category,) check sindaG (sinda.com) 1D network solver have been and are used to solve an excellent number of industrial problems just google for network solver

Thanks a lot for this guys!

The software widely used in industry for commercial use in AMESim

Flowmaster is better than Amsim.
