CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems
"Standard for the Installation of Standpipe and Hose Systems".
Implemented in CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems.
As of version 2022.b, applications with 3D drawing surroundings allow a viewing volume to be defined from the geometric envelope of the scene content. The arrows allow the viewing volume to be adjusted by moving their faces and the arches allow the viewing volume to be adjusted by means of 6 clips planes.
Version 2021.g of CYPE’s programs is a closing version of the 2021 version.
As well as the new features and improvements expressly indicated in each version of CYPE software, process optimisation involving internal updates for all our programs is normally included. In each revision, all programs are systematically checked and changes are made to improve their performance, therefore, we recommend that our users (in this case those of v.2021) always update their version to the latest one, regardless of the country for which they are using CYPE software or the language in which it is installed.
As of the 2021.c version, users will be able to work with CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems using Italsan catalogues. Specifically, using the products included in the NIRON RED system (polypropylene piping systems for fire protection installations).
In the "General options" panel, users can select the Italsan logo to import its catalogue (located under the regulations that are implemented in the application). Once imported, the sprinkler installation can be designed with all the available products, in accordance with the indications of this manufacturer.
The analysis and design of an automatic sprinkler system can be quite complex. All the hydraulic design requirements that must be met by the different applicable regulations make the selection of the pipes one of the most complex tasks in the design of the installation.
To facilitate this process, from the 2021.c version, "CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems" has the new "Automatic design" tool.
This tool can be configured by users in "General options > Design criteria". From this panel it is possible to edit the diameters to be used in the design and the maximum number of sprinklers that each diameter can supply before moving on to the next available diameter.
If users do not want to change the default data, the "design" tool will launch the diameter selection process and then the hydraulic analysis. This selection and hydraulic analysis process will end if no errors are found when the results that are obtained are compared with the requirements of the regulations. Otherwise, the process will be repeated until valid diameters are selected, to comply with the applied regulations.
Users can now design hydraulic installations with reduced capacity tanks.
This type of tank has a refill flow that allows it to reduce the volume that is required to supply the installation. This option can be activated by editing the tank and including the refill flow.
In the previous version (2020.e), CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems included the hydraulic analysis of the singular losses that occur due to accessories as well as valves. This new feature included the automatic design of some types of accessories. Now, the 2020.f version includes the design of connections.
In the "Automatic generation of accessories" panel, the option "Connection" has been added as an accessory that can be designed. Connections are accessories that join two pipes.
The 2020.f version of the application includes the animation of the "Spray pattern" of the sprinklers that are included in the operating area of the installation.
This animation can be viewed in the 3D view that is located in the bottom left of the workspace and in the 3D viewer of the BIMserver.center platform when the project is exported to the BIM project.
En la versión 2019.g se incluyó en CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems el cálculo de Bocas de incendio equipadas. Ahora se incluye, como se muestra en la imagen, una biblioteca predefinida de tipos de BIE de 25 y 45 mm.
"CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems" exports the following files to the Open BIM project, as well as the 3D view of the installation of the extinguishing system:
- Project
- Material schedule
- Drawings
As of the 2020.e version, users can define pipes in "CYPEFIRE Hydraulic Systems" that are made out of polypropylene.
This material has a table of nominal diameters that is different to those of the other materials that are included in the program. Therefore, once a pipes catalogue has been generated with this selected material, it will not be necessary to change the material of the catalogue.
