Working on software update

I’m using the lock-down to check the software:

  • ConeDesigner
  • PipeDesigner

I’ve been debugging and adding some new features. I’m planning to add import facility to ConeDesigner so pipe skeleton could be easily designed as rolled cones.

Stay tuned because all user of full version will be candidate for an upgrade.

ConeDesigner Version 1.3.1 in test

A version 1.3.1 of ConeDesigner should be available this evening (if everything does well).

The intersection between a cone and a plan is not a circle but an ellipse, so I’ve modified my computation code. The objective is to obtain input and output perimeters of the angled cone identical to the perimeters of the circles upstream and downstream.

Here the corrections and some new features:

  • Adjustment  of upstream and downstream perimeters to fit the diameter D1 and D2,
  • Improvement of precision in length of perimeters between sections,
  • New text files creation while creating the DXF files:
    • NOMFICHIER_Parameter.txt => Data from the GUI
    • NOMFICHIER_Si.txt => Data of section i

To do : improve input control for D1 must be greater than D2.
