Description
Bentley AutoPIPE Vessel V8i is a stand-alone, Engineering application for the comprehensive calculation of pressure vessels, heat exchangers, tanks, and air coolers to ASME, European, French CODAP, German ADM,and
Russian GOST standards. It is the only program to perform truly optimized vessel design in minutes and produce fully automated detailed drawings and cost estimates.
Major New V8i features include:

General
Bentley SELECT Trust licensing

Interoperability
New DGN Viewer replacing CADGRI Viewer
Free automatic DGN engineering drawings using latest DGN Platform technology (No MicroStation license required)

Vessel Codes
New integrated API650 (2011, 2013) Tank module for designing small or large industrial storage tanks
complete with engineering drawings and cost estimates
French CODAP (2012 addenda) code update
German AD2000 07-2012 code update
British PD5500 (2012) code update

Analysis

More accurate wind load analysis of double or multiple vessel bracket and leg configuration
Flexible multi-guided column supports for more accurate, safer column designs

Release 33.1
AutoPIPE Vessel (Microprotol) branding.
Tanks according to l'API 650 2011.
Calculation of the guided columns. Modification of the modeling. This may cause some changes in the results. Intermediate heads may be taken into account in the equivalent beam and their thickness can be increased.
Correction of the calculation of the bending stress in the weld of the lifting lugs.
The heights of liquid for exchangers relate to the reference line of the vessel.
Vertical exchangers: the hydrostatic height is taken into account in bundle tubes and floating heads.
Correction of conical head weight.
Correction of jacket closure weight.
Correction of volume of liquid in a shell positioned on the concave side of an intermediate head.
Extended tubesheet with separated bolting and with different faces is taken into account.
Anchorage (CODAP and Thompson): correction of the case without compression in concrete.
AD2000 S1 (fatigue): correction of N100 value.
Local loads: allowance (12.5%) for piping is taken into account.
