Bentley currently offers three types of licenses for AutoPIPE Vessel:
- AutoPIPE Vessel Standard
- AutoPIPE Vessel Heat Exchanger
- AutoPIPE Vessel Ultimate
All license types include access to the cost estimation module. For a detailed comparison of features available under each license, refer to the document:
fs-autopipe-vessel-comparison-sheet-ltr-en-lr.pdf
Importantly, there are no restrictions on using the cost estimation feature. Users can perform cost estimation for any model type, including pressure vessels and heat exchangers, regardless of the license.
For example, even if a user holds the AutoPIPE Vessel Standard license—which supports modelling and analysis only for pressure vessels—they can still estimate costs for heat exchanger models.
