Energy Efficient Design
MDTools® 945 What’s New
Energy Efficient Connections
Energy Efficient Connections NEW
Setup MDTools to optimize Diameter and Depth, when making connections and inserting construction ports
Define nominal velocity range of oil flow for tank and pressure connections
Define construction hole upsizing ratio, for different velocity ranges
MDTools® 945 What’s New
Energy Efficient Construction PortEnergy Efficient Construction Port NEW
Smart Construction Port selection, based on flow values, is used when connecting ports
If Energy Efficient connection is active, then MDTools suggests Drill Diameter and Construction Port to reduce bend losses
