1 Introduction AMPreVA is an application software for Pressure Vessels and Heat Exchangers layout and fabrication detailing. AMPreVA incorporates a feature-based modeling environment enabling the rapid layout and configuration of tanks. AMPreVA automates the creation of the 3D solid models, fabrication details, drawing, bill of material along many other details required to design and fabricate a tank. For the purpose of simplifying the terminology as used in this document we will refer to a Pressure Vessel or a Heat Exchanger as tank.

2 Modeling Environment The AMPreVA modeling environment supports a graphical user interface (GUI) incorporating a set of toolbars, menus, a graphic canvas, a message pane, and a model tree. This GUI facilitates the rapid creation of the tank model. This model can be created either from imported design data or interactively through the GUI by selecting the features and setting the appropriate properties and dimensions.
2.1 Tank Geometry Layout and Component Model Organization The tank geometry as created in AMPreVA is organized in a hierarchical model tree. Each component is represented by an object depicted in the model tree as a node. All components are represented using solid model geometry. The tank has a global coordinate system. Each of the components has a different local coordinate system. Components can be attached to other components. AMPreVA automatically manages the cross referencing of all coordinate systems. In general, vertical tanks are arranged such as the global coordinate system is oriented with the Z-axis up. Horizontal tanks are arranged with the Z-axis parallel to the ground and the X-axis pointing upwards. In all cases the Z-axis is always parallel to the cylindrical shell axis. Drawings in AMPreVA are fully associative with the tank geometry. A Dimension Datum Plane can be specified to set the start reference of the elevation dimensions.

2.2 GUI Layout The AMPreVA GUI employs a set of menus used for creating and editing the geometry features. The features of a component can be edited through selecting the component either from the graphic canvas or the model tree. The message pane located under the canvas is used to inform the user of the appropriate action required when certain activities are being executed. Tool tips are used throughout AMPreVA GUI to assist the user navigate thru the various menus.
2.3 GUI Menu Bar Figure 2 AMPreVA GUI Menu Bar
The menu bar provides the user various options including: 1. Model. From this menu a user can start a new Pressure Vessel or Heat Exchanger, save a model, select one of the current active models, close a model, retrieve a saved model, or exit the application. 2. Import. From this menu the user can start a new model by importing the design data using Compress XML, PVElite MDB, or TEAMS EDR files. The other buttons under the menu bar are not directly relevant to the initial use of AMPreVA.
2.4 GUI Toolbar Figure 3 AMPreVA GUI Toolbar
The GUI toolbar provides similar options to the menu toolbar. Only the marked buttons shown in the Figure 3 are critical to the initial use of AMPreVA. The first marked button is used to create a new model. The second marked button is used to save a model. The third marked button is used to retrieve a saved model. The other buttons under the Menu Bar as well as the GUI Toolbar that this manual does not cover provide various functionalities. These functionalities are in general used by advanced users to support the creation of 1D, 2D, and 3D geometry entities, geometry operations, dimensions in a similar fashion to a CAD system. This limited general purpose feature based modeler should not be used for replacing the CAD system. For the purpose of building and detailing tanks a user should not focus on the use of any of the capabilities provided in the Menu Bar or the GUI Toolbar that have not been introduced in this manual.

2.5 Model Tree
Figure 4 AMPreVA Model Tree
The model tree area includes the model tree and a menu located below it. The menu enables the specification of the action of the mouse left button and the mouse right button. The action can be set pushing the correct icon. The left button action selection includes many options. The most critical ones that any user should be familiar with are: 1. Edit. Used to set the left action button to invoke the edit menu on the selected object. 2. Draw. Used to set the left action button to draw the selected object. 3. Undraw. Used to set the left action button to undraw the selected object. The model tree depicts the hierarchy of the tank design components. The mouse buttons can be used to invoke the appropriate action by selecting the object in the model tree.

3 Starting a New Pressure Vessel Model A new model can be started by selecting the model button from the menu bar, and then new, followed by Pressure Vessel or Heat Exchanger of the customary and orientation desired, as shown in Figure 7. This section will focus on the Pressure Vessel creation.
Figure 7 Create new Pressure Vessel / Heat Exchanger model
Once a Pressure Vessel has been initiated a model is created in the model tree as shown in Figure 8. Initially only the geometry node is shown under the top node labeled as “Pressure-Vessel0001” in Figure 8. The top node should be selected using the mouse right button and the expand option should be selected from the popup menu. The model tree is updated to include the nodes “Geometry” and “Drawings” as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8 Model Tree
The geometry node in the model tree should be selected using the mouse left button. A menu will pop up as shown in Figure 9. This is the general menu that is used for creating or editing the components and the features of the Pressure Vessel. At any stage if this menu is closed it can be reopened by editing (using the mouse left button. Note that the left button action is set to the edit mode) the geometry node from the model tree.

The general form for layout and editing of the tank components is organized to enable setting the general project information and operating condition data for the tank, adding new components, and editing component features and properties. As illustrated in the previous section, to display this “Component Layout and Editing Form” edit the geometry object (node) from the model-tree. The Edit options should be selected from the pull down menu next to the left button action label below the model tree pane. If certain component is already drawn in the canvas the “Component Layout and Editing Form” can be invoked by editing the component from the canvas. The first button above the canvas is used for interactive editing. As illustrated Figure 11 the “Component Layout and Editing” form includes a two row toolbar at the top (highlighted in red), a general editing form with tabs each containing various buttons or type in fields (highlighted in blue) used for setting the properties of the component being edited, and a set of action buttons at the bottom (highlighted in green).
