Generalized Fluid System Simulation Program (GFSSP) Version 6 - General Purpose Thermo-Fluid Network Analysis Software

• GFSSP stands for Generalized Fluid System Simulation Program • It is a general -purpose computer program to compute pressure, temperature and flow distribution in a flow network• It was primarily developed to analyze – Internal Flow Analysis of a Turbopump– Transient Flow Analysis of a Propulsion System• GFSSP development started in 1994 with an objective to provide a generalized and easy to use flow analysis tool for thermo-fluid systems
