RITA® 6 - The tank calculation software
The tank calculation software RITA® has been used for more than 20 years to perform calculations as part of the structural analysis of tanks made of thermoplastics. RITA® 6 is based on the latest technology and combines the proven advantages of the successful software with a number of other useful new features.
The most important functions in RITA® 6.1:
- Calculation of cylindrical tanks according to DVS 2205-2
- Consideration of snow, wind and earthquake loads for round tanks
- Various bottom shapes: flat, sloped or conical bottom for round tanks
- Calculation of rectangular tanks according to DVS 2205-5
- Optimization of tanks with all-round reinforcement using a 2D-FEM-Solver
- Static analysis of rectangular tanks with a 3D FEM solver
- Calculation of rectangular tanks made of the Polystone® P CubX® twin-wall sheet
- Extensive steel profile database for rectangular tanks
- 3D viewer showing a three-dimensional preview of the tank
- Switch between 3D view and 2D sketch of the tank possible
- Creation of verifiable static printouts
- Easy to use thanks to its user-friendly interface
RITA 6.1 also offers:
- Program interface and reports in German, English, French, Czech and Polish
- In addition to the standard materials, tanks made of PE-EL can also be calculated
- Consideration of the DIBt media list
- Miner tool for calculating the mean media temperature
- Determination of medium density using artificial intelligence
- Direct generation of structural analysis reports as PDF files
- Automatic generation of report names according to user settings
Special features for the calculation of round tanks with RITA 6.1:
- Calculation of tanks in shell construction according to DVS 2205-2 supplement 6
- Location definition via Azure Maps
- Automated determination of wind, snow and seismic loads by entering the installation location for 25 countries.
- Precise positioning of nozzles within the round tank by defining their height and angle in the circumferential direction.
- Proof of a floating protection for tanks placed inside a collecting tank
Highlights when calculating rectangular tanks with RITA 6.1:
- Either automatically optimized or interactive calculation of tanks with all-round reinforcements
- Consideration of tie rods when calculating tanks with all-round reinforcements
- More flexible positioning of yoke reinforcements for long tanks
- Steel profile management to determine which profiles should be taken into account in the calculation
- Various steel grades can be selected for the steel profiles
