The basic theoretical background to hydraulics in piping systems and system design and analysis is covered, including efficient design.

Training makes use of AFT Fathom, AFT Arrow and AFT Impulse (plus add-on modules) as well as hand calculations.

A discussion/question/answer format is also employed in order to maximize retention of course material and theoretical concepts. Some of the specific topics covered are outlined
below

Chempute Software will provide training venue, computers, training dongles, printed training notes, teas, lunches, course certificate. CPD points are awarded according to the ECSA Continuing Professional Development program.
