This is the first beta version with limited hydraulic valves.

Eventually, users will be able to create their own circuits, add the component sizes and observe how the circuit will perform.

We will add a range of circuits you can load modify and save.

Please follow the updates and follow the development on Twitter

Build your own circuits

Currently, the number of objects is limited but we will be adding many new objects in the coming months which will allow you to build much larger circuits.

Simply left click and drag the components or pipes to build your own circuits.

Features

Load and save circuits

Left mouse to drag and drop

Right click to change the properties

Mouse over objects will show their operating conditions.

Watch the line colours change as a guide to pressures.

Place the print object on an object then press print to copy and paste results into a spreadsheet.

Object fade when calculation tolerances are not met then reappear when values appear accurate again.

Optimising the simulation routine

Always check that the results are reasonable using static calculations.

If not use the settings button to optimise the simulation routine.

Change the loop speed, pressure gain or flow gain to see if results are improved. (pressure and flow gain may have little effect in the current build)

Slow down the loop speed (loop speed cannot be changed in flash). Move the pipes to improve the flow if results do not appear correct.

Click the SCAN FWD / SCAN BACK / SCAN ALL button to change the way the circuit is analysed and reverse the direction the object are refreshed.
