AFT Fathom Reviews & Product Details

Feature to compare multiple cases in one output window is very helpful.

Visual report is very good to analyse the overall model.

Feature of adding vendor curves for Pumps is very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Needs significant improvement in combined report generation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fathom is user friendly and provides an easy way to analyze various scenarios in one file Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In pipe fitting section for defining expander/reducer, in place of area ratio there can be pipe size Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Best feature is scenario creations. I specifically like this because i can present multiple solutions at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the absence of smart ness eg. use of polylines for pipes with automatic inclusion of bends and fittings, automatic inclusion of isolation valves on either side of pumps. ( At least the option of automatic inclusion should pop up and its based on user, same can be selected or rejected). These features would make model creation faster.

single user, multiple users, desktop installation, network installation, GUI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

not extensive of thermodynamics properties Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The feature that allows you to modify a group of junctions or pipes makes it really convenient and time saving in case a parameter needs to change in the model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Run time is relatively slow when compared to software like HYSYS that show realtime results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Majorly interface part and tools that available for the modeling &results representation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Unable to relocate the tables/results of the particular lines that causing overlapping and hard to analyze for large and complex networks.

- Need improvement in the error reporting, specifically for the phase change errors for networks that carry fluid at saturated components. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's interface is too handy to learn and to explore the calculation in easiest possible way,that helps to converge the system without making it complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being a Process Engineer, I didn't find anything dislike able in AFT Fathom.

It's damn too easy to do process engineering stuff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to allow valves to be open or close for all hydraulic calculations. The readily available data on pumps and pump curves etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to price to be made more competitive for today's environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very user friendly with all the nodes are well defined. The flow diagram can be directly replicated on Fathom model and will run to check the static simulation. The user interface is very easy to replicate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In case of any error, it is hard to identify the node with targeted error properties. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support for Slurry transport model, easy user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The transient capability is still restricted on AFT impulse, and drainage studies can not be done accurately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
