AFT Fathom Add-On Modules
Building on the foremost modeling software for incompressible flow systems, the AFT Fathom add-on modules extend capabilities into these areas:
EXtended Time Simulation (XTS) – model dynamic system behavior
Goal Seek and Control (GSC) – automate the identification of input parameters that will yield desired output values and simulate control functions within systems
Settling Slurry (SSL) – model the effects of pumping fluids containing settling solids
Modules can work individually or together within AFT Fathom and with your existing AFT Fathom models.
