The graphic user interface provides navigation tools that simplify the management of large programs, such as those used to control complex systems that test multiple products. The program's instrument manager searches for instruments connected to a computer and automatically handles all addressing regardless of whether the test engineer is using drivers or controlling instruments directly. Users can integrate HP VEE objects into other commercial applications and test systems written in standard text-based languages.
Users can view their designs while they measure and add annotations to communicate design issues.
A measure-section capability is included for interior features of a design. Cross sections can be output in DXF format. An option automatically creates DX, DY, and DZ dimensions. Gas Dynamics performs engineering calculations typically encountered in the design, operation, and management of propulsion systems. The program calculates the shearing stress and angle of twist on circular, rectangular, and triangular cross-section shafts when subjected to torsional loads.
