Engineered Software Offers Free Ready-Made Curriculum & Books for Educators

Lacey, WA, August 01, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Engineered Software, Inc. announces the availability of an exclusive offer for educators of fluid mechanics or related subjects. Working together with the Crane Company in a commitment to education, Engineered Software, Inc. has created ready-made curriculum and supplemental tools and is providing them free for educational use. The package is valued at over $250!

Contained within the Free Educational Packages are two publications and a CD filled with supportive documents and tools. The two publications include Crane’s Technical Paper 410 (TP410) – the industry standard guide for hydraulic calculations and Piping System Fundamentals: The Complete Guide to Gaining a Clear Picture of Your Piping System, Second Edition. The books are supplemented with a CD containing a demo version of PIPE-FLO Professional software and three Lesson Plans covering Pumps, System Networks and System Interaction all intended to link fluid dynamics theory with real-world example applications.

"We believe instructors are continually looking for improved methods to teach the principles of fluid mechanics in a meaningful way to their students. Time conscious and concerned, instructors are looking for a valuable solution, and we aim to offer just that," said Ray Hardee, Chief Engineer and CEO of Engineered Software, Inc.

"What we have found in our research is that many new college graduates arrive in their first position with little connection between the principles learned in their fluid dynamics course and the application to real-world fluid systems. By exposing students to industry standard technical literature, introducing them to real-world applications, and familiarizing them with the use of analysis tools used by industry leaders worldwide, we believe we are preparing future engineers to become topical experts," said Michael Blondin, Chief Operating Officer for Engineered Software, Inc.

Crane Technical Paper 410
Media CD

PIPE-FLO Professional Software Demo
