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.

- #69201: Calculation of flange acc. EN 13445 APP G with ring metal gasket
- #68911: Incorrect text in the error message #751 ("shear" instead of "tensile")
- #68128: BS/PD5500 wrong MAWP value on conical shell with knuckle under internal pressure.
- #68126: BS/PD5500 multiple openings with a self-reinforcing nozzle: mean thickness and lenght of ligament are wrong.
- #66308: In the AutoCAD Dwg file, the 3D model generated is in a different orientation comparing with the model in GUI
- #65884: Saddle Supports : Circumferential stress f5 (PD5500) should not be taken into account with a stiffener in the plane of the saddle
- #65572: Calculation of compressive stress in saddle
- #65379: Scope of application for oblique nozzle in BS PD 5500
- #65169: Liquid on trays in the shutdown condition
- #63362: The interface with AutoCAD 2012 x64 Traditional Chinese does not generate the 3D drawing.
- #63188: Calculation of cone with knuckle radius in BS PD 5500
- #61431: Changing a gasket for a tubesheet bolted inside
- #37030: The information in data grids for 'Tank Roof->Common Properties->Roof support' does not persists on applying.
- #37331: Program accepting invalid Tag No. for 'Girder Group' item which causes the girder to be skipped in 3d model.
- #38078: Corrosion and Tolerance for TEMA expansion Joint.
- #43743: Discrepancy between the length of the equivalent beam and the length of the vessel when the tubesheet thickness has been input by the user.
- #44115: Wrong Internal Diameter for Flat channel Cover Deflection (TEMA RCB-9.21).
- #44121: Wrong allowable for skirts in exceptionnal cases.
- #48095: Cost Estimation: tubesheet drilling is the opposite between Radial and CNC.

- #61037: Uncallable $ in ASCE templates.
- #52790: No translation of IDS_8340.
- GOST Code: The value Lб0 is calculated incorrectly in "Body flange(s) and cover(s)" section of flange mechanical calculation.
- GOST Code: In flange calculation the elasticity modulus of flange and bolt materials (Е1, Е2, Еб), and allowable stress of flange material ([σ]) shall be selected based on operating temperature of flange elements tф1, tф2, tб.
- GOST Code: In flange calculation the allowable stresses of bolt material ([σ]мб, [σ]Рб) are calculated incorrectly.
- GOST Code: In flange calculation the report shows the allowable stresses of flange material [σ]20 at temperature 20 °С, which are not used in flange calculation.
- GOST Code: Flange thickness h (GOST R 52857.4-2007) is calculated incorrectly in "Body flange(s) and cover(s)" section of flange mechanical calculation.
- GOST Code: When choosing stiffeners height less than 80 mm the calculation is interrupted with error message.
- GOST Code: The flange nominal diameter list disappears when the specified flange rating is more than 2.5.
- GOST Code: Add flange rating from GOST 356-80.
