Hi. I am design an heat exchanger by using the material S32900 at 160 deg C. In the CodeCalc 2009 (June build), the ASME tubesheet analysis show the warning as below:

Tubes - TEMA 7 MO (S32900)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Warning: An Error occurred determining the Elastic Modulus. Either
the Maximum temperature was exceeded or the reference index was 0.
Check the Emod ID in the Material Properties Dialog.

Then I try using PV Elite 2009 (Jun build) to find the Emod value of S32900 at 160 deg C, I get the Emod= 185727.2N/mm2. May I know what is the material S32900 elastic modulus maximum temperature? Why the PV Elite and CodeCalc shows different result?

This has been fixed. I will send you the solution and also update it on the website.

Thanks lot for the fix and it solve all my problems.

However,after i install the PV Elite 2009_Dec fix, i get a maximum version warning from codecalc where my ESL need to reauthorizing to run this version of the software and my grace period ends is 15 days. May i know how to reauthorizing my ESL?

Thanks you.
