Control-Soft Enterprises - FE-Sizer for Windows, Version 3.0

1.	Download above release update installation file.
2.	Backup your existing files by creating a new folder in your installation directory called fesizer.xxxx where .xxxx represents backup version number, i.e., fesizer.3354 is Release 3.35.4. Move the following files from the installation directory into this file: fesizer.exe, readme.txt
3.	Uninstall any prior release updates using the original release update setup/install utility and select "remove" or use the Windows Add/Remove Programs utility.
4.	Run the Release 3.37.1 update setup/install file and select whether you accept the license agreement by selecting the "I accept..." or "I do not accept..." item.
5.	Point the install/setup installation directory to the current installation directory on your computer or server.
6.	Follow installation instructions.

Release 3.37.1 Fixes & Changes

1.	Corrected dp loss calculation for lo loss flow tubes. Equation was bypassed in a prior release update and was displaying 100% permanent pressure loss. The beta and bore calculation were unaffected. Issued as Release 3.36.3.
2.	Corrected the discharge standard callout to be R.W. Miller (3rd Edition) for critical drop orifices. Issued as Release 3.36.2.
3.	Fixed the saturated liquid factor to print properly. Sometimes printout would crash FE-Sizer and other times would print, but would not print the vapor density used in the saturated liquid factor calc. Calculated the saturated liquid factor correctly, however. Issued as Release 3.36.1.
4.	Added description to Reynolds Number calculated for ASME Throat Tap nozzles to include at Normal Flow on calculation sheet. Prior versions did not adequately define the flow which calculated Reynolds Number represented. Also redfined Reynolds Numbers for critical drop and Restrictive Pressure Drop applications to be calculated at Flow - only single point flow given for these applications.
5.	Fixed flow conversions from mass to volumentric flows for Steam applications. For steam mass flow to volume conversion at Base volumetric flows, the flows are zero'd out. There is no Z @ base for steam since it is water and standard or normal conditions of 60 deg F (15.55 deg C) and 14.696 psia (1.01325 bar-ab).
6.	Updated and/or verified revisions from ASME MFC 3Ma-2007 are incorporated and updated discharge coefficient to refer to ASME MFC-3Ma-2007 when this discarge coefficient is selected.
7.	Added more functionality to allow conversion of flows between steam and volumetric gases & vapors at flowing condtions. Also detects when changing fluid equation from a liquid to a gas or vapor or vice versa and asks user if erasing current fluid data is desired.
8.	Issued as Release 3.37.1: Fixed liquid critical drop calculations. Program was not returning proper results due to error in calculating the critical drop as P1 - Pvap.
9.	Issued as Release 3.37.1: Fixed critical drop calculations and restriction drop calculations when changing orifice type from square or thick edged orifice plate to a contoured flow element, i.e., venturi for critical drop and nozzles for restrictive drop. Program reverted back to square or thick edged orifice design if sizing mode was changed from bore to flow, etc.
10.	Issued as Release 3.37.1: Corrected the fix to item 1 to correct dp loss calculation to include all versions of the software. Previous correction set to fix only the "fabricator" custom version.
