Intergraph PV Elite 2016 SP1 version 18.00.01 | 735.6 mb
Intergraph Process, Power & Marine, part of Hexagon and the world's leading provider of enterprise engineering software to the process, power and marine industries, announces the Service Pack 01 for PV Elite 2016, the newest version of its complete solution for vessel and heat exchanger design, analysis and evaluation used by engineers, designers, estimators, fabricators and inspectors.

PV Elite 2016 offers numerous productivity enhancements. Nozzle input calculation time has been cut from one hour to just minutes. Flanges on nozzles can be connected much more easily. Nozzles on a blind flange can be placed on an Appendix 2 flange on a nozzle, a capability unmatched by any other vendor. Element edges are displayed, which makes it easier to see if a nozzle is placed too close to a weld seam. Symbols and graphics prevent work having to be repeated and the cost of wasted materials.
User Interface/Graphics
- Fixed an issue in CodeCalc in which you were unable to select a material from the PD 5500 material database when performing an Annex G nozzle analysis. Previously in the WRC 297 component, if you selected PD 5500 Annex G on the WRC 297 tab, the software did not update with your material selection in Vessel Material. The software now properly updates the material properties when changing the selection in Vessel Material.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software did not properly Description a child nozzle. Previously, the software did not properly Description child nozzles when the parent nozzle was a hillside nozzle. The issue has been resolved and the layout angle of a child nozzle is properly Descriptionted on a parent hillside nozzle.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the layout angle of a nozzle did not accurately display on the Quick Results dialog. Previously, when you entered a value in Layout Angle on the Nozzle Input/Analysis dialog, the layout angle value remained 0 on the Quick Results dialog. The issue has been resolved, and the correct nozzle layout angle displays on the Quick Results dialog.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software did not graphically display reinforcing pads for certain vessel leg types. Previously, when you created vessel legs with reinforcing pads in which the Section Identifier option was a Single Angle type, the pads did not graphically display on the 3D model. The issue has been fixed, and reinforcing pads display on the 3D model for all leg types.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software reset inputs for certain fields on the Heat Exchanger Tubesheet Input dialog. Previously, when you entered data in Tube Weld Joint Type and Allowable Joint Load Method on the Tube Data tab of the Heat Exchanger Tubesheet Input dialog, the software reset the data if you accessed the Spherical Cover / Backing Ring tab. The issue has been resolved, and the software retains user inputs throughout building the vessel.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software did not allow you to model legs with a certain shape type. Previously, when you selected a leg in which the Section Identifier field contained an Unknown Shape type, the software encountered an error when attempting to close the Leg Dialog. The issue has been resolved and the software models legs of any type.
- Fixed an issue with opening certain PV Elite files. Previously, PV Elite would crash when you attempted to open a *.pvdb file by double-clicking it from Windows Explorer. The issue has been resolved, and you can now open .pvdb files using the double-click method.
Material Updates
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which there was an incorrect allowable stress value for a material listing. Previously, the 1968 version of the material database contained an incorrect allowable stress value for material SA 516 Grade 55 Listing 1. The issue has been resolved and the database contains the correct allowable stress value.
Calculations/Analysis
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software did not calculate the correct weight of lining on a cone. Previously, if you added lining to a cone, the software calculated the same weight for the lining, regardless of the lining specifications. The software now properly calculates the weight of lining on a cone according to the designated specifications.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite regarding an incorrect nozzle geometry limit for WRC 297 nozzle analysis. Previously, when analyzing a nozzle per WRC 297, the software incorrectly generated a warning when the Dn/Tn ratio value was less than 20. Per the bulletin, the Dn/Tn ratio cannot be less than 10. The software has been updated to accurately reflect the Dn/TN ratio warning.
- Fixed an incorrect internal pressure calculation in PV Elite. Previously, the software incorrectly calculated the head design pressure for Type 2 jacketed vessels. The software has been updated and correctly calculates the head design pressure as the sum of the design internal pressure and jacket external pressure.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite regarding nozzle properties for a nozzle connected to another nozzle. When a nozzle is connected to another nozzle the child nozzle should inherit the properties of the parent nozzle. Previously, when a child nozzle was connected to a parent nozzle, the child nozzle inherited the external corrosion allowance value from the parent shell and not the parent nozzle. The issue has been resolved, and the child nozzle inherits the appropriate properties from its parent nozzle.
- Fixed an error that occurred in PV Elite when analyzing a U-Tube heat exchanger. Previously during the analysis of certain U-Tube heat exchangers, an issue with MAWP calculations caused an unexpected error and the analysis was aborted. The issue has been resolved.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software calculated different values for the MAWP and MAPnc (maximum allowable pressure new and cold) under certain conditions. For example, when a vessel has a temperature of 20°C and no corrosion, the MAWP and MAPnc of the vessel flange should be the same, though the software calculated different values. The issue has been resolved.
- Updated PV Elite to calculate the weight of saddles more accurately. Previously, PV Elite did not consider the size of the ribs when calculating the weight, causing the software to overestimate the saddle weight by approximately 30 percent. The software has been updated and PV now considers the different sizes of the ribs to determine a more accurate saddle weight.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite by removing the units from the Thickness Correction Factor Ce per EN 13445 value on the Fatigue Analysis report. Previously, the thickness correction factor value displayed with a unit of measure, but based on paragraph 17.6.2.1 of EN 13445, the thickness correction factor (Ce) does not have a unit of measure. The issue has been resolved.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software incorrectly calculated the channel side MAWP of a stepped tubesheet heat exchanger. The issue has been resolved and the software now correctly uses the tubesheet bending stress to determine the channel side MAWP.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software did not consider user-defined values for the Weight/Piping Dialog for a certain case. Previously, when you selected HydroTest Case on the Weight/Piping Dialog, the software did not apply the user-defined values in the Load Combination Results for Q + Wind equation on the Horizontal Vessel Analysis (Test) report. The issue has been resolved, and the software includes the user-defined weight and piping values for all cases.
- Updated PV Elite to analyze large nozzles governed by external pressure according to ASME Section VIII, Division 1 Appendix 1-7. If you select Use 1-10 in ASME Large Nozzle Calc Options on the Load Cases tab, when the software analyzes a large nozzle governed by external pressure, the software automatically analyzes the nozzle according to Appendix 1-7 as well. A new Reinforcement Areas for Large Nozzle (Per App 1-7(a)) section displays on the Nozzle Calcs report and the Quick Results Dialog for the applicable nozzles.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software used the wrong MAWP value to determine the MDMT of channel shells when designing a heat exchanger. Previously, if you selected Use MAWP to Calculate MDMT on the Configuration dialog and entered values in the User Defined MAWP fields on the Tubesheet Type and Design Code tab of the Heat Exchanger Tubesheet Input dialog, the software incorrectly used the calculated MAWP instead of the user-defined MAWP in MDMT calculations. The issue has been resolved, and the software correctly uses the user-defined MAWP values in applicable calculations.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite which the software did not use the hub thickness when calculating the area for the nozzle wall of hub type nozzles. Previously, when calculating the Area Available in Nozzle Projective Outward [A2] calculation on the Nozzle Calcs report, the software used the Actual Thk value instead of the Hub Thickness value from the Nozzle Input/Analysis dialog. The issue has been resolved and the software now uses the correct thickness value for the area calculations.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software incorrectly calculated the hydrostatic test pressure calculations for UG 99©. Previously, the software incorrectly ignored the hydrostatic head value in the hydrostatic pressure calculations. The issue has been resolved and the Internal Pressure Calculations report displays the correct pressure results in the Hydrostatic Test Pressure Results section.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software used an incorrect fmin value when calculating the tube-to-tubesheet joint stress for welded joint types according to EN-13445-3. The issue has been resolved and the software now uses the minimum of the allowable tube stress and the allowable tubesheet stress to determine the correct fmin value.
- Fixed an issue in CodeCalc in which the software selected the incorrect value for Intermediate Value [k] for a cone analysis. The software is to select the maximum of two values (a calculated value and 1), but previously, would occasionally incorrectly select the minimum of the two values. The issue has been resolved.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software incorrectly calculated a value in the formula for determining the credit height of certain nozzles. Previously, the software incorrectly calculated the value of L in the Credit Height for each Nozzle Outside formula on the Nozzle Summary report. The issue has been resolved and the software now correctly calculates the L value.
- Fixed an issue in CodeCalc in which the software incorrectly calculated the membrane stress at the long-side corner of a rectangular vessel when you select A2 in Figure Number for Type of Vessel. The issue has been resolved and the software correctly calculates the final value of Membrane Stresses at Long-side Corner on the Rectves Analysis output report.
Output Reports
- Updated CodeCalc to reference Table UG-79-1 for percentage elongation calculations. Previously, the Nozzle Analysis report referenced section UHA-44 for equations used to calculate forming strains. With the update to the ASME code, those equations were moved to Table UG-79-1. The software now references the correct location of those equations.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which an output report contained an incorrect note. Previously, the software contained differing notes identifying the controlling case for the Axial Load on the Baseplate calculation on both the Open Leg Check, (Operating Case) and Open Leg Check (Filled w/Water) output reports. The issue has been resolved and the Wind + Empty case is noted as the controlling case for the calculation on both reports.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which a nozzle equation for EN 13445 did not display properly on the Nozzle Calcs report. Previously, the nozzle equation, Credit Distance along the Shell per 9.5.1 did not include the second condition for calculating a minimum value for this credit. The software has been updated to display both conditions for the equation.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which an output report displayed the incorrect element governing the vessel MAWP. Previously on the Internal Pressure Calculations output report, for certain cases the software correctly calculated the governing MAWP value, but attributed it to the incorrect element. The issue is now resolved, and the software correctly displays the element which governs the vessel MAWP.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software incorrectly calculated the required thickness of a shell welded to a flat head. Previously, when calculating the required thickness of a shell welded to a flat head, the software incorrectly doubled the value of the corrosion allowance. The issue has been resolved and the software correctly calculates and displays the required thickness of the shell element in the Element Required Thickness and MAWP section of the Internal Pressure Calculation output report.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the calculated value of the shell MAWP did not match the formula displayed on the output report. Previously, the software correctly ignored the user- defined joint efficiency value when calculating the shell MAWP according to the rules of UG-34 sketch (h), though the value still displayed in the formula on the Internal Pressure Calculations output report. The issue was resolved by displaying a note on the Internal Pressure Calculations report indicating that user-defined values display in the formula; however, they are ignored in the calculation, and the final result is properly calculated according to the rules of UG-34 sketch (h).
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software incorrectly switched the allowable stress values for certain load cases when analyzing vessel legs for EN 13445. Previously, when analyzing vessel legs for the EN 13445 code, the software incorrectly switched the allowable stress values for the Operating and Filled w/Water cases. The problem has been resolved and you can verify the correct allowable stress values on the Leg Check, (Operating Case) and Leg Check, (Filled w/Water) output reports.
- Updated the nozzle/clip design pressure output string on an output report in PV Elite. Updated the Input Echo report to display the full name of the Nozzle/Clip Design Pressure options from the Load Cases tab.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which the software displayed the incorrect result for the Factor for Pressure Effect on Tubes - Equation 13.9.3-5 calculation. The EN TS Calc output report displayed the correct formula for the calculation but the final result was incorrect. The issue has been resolved.
- Fixed an issue in PV Elite in which asterisks displayed instead of numbers for figures too large to display on output reports. The issue was resolved by displaying large figures in scientific notation.
