HYSAN Software for HYdraulic System ANalysis
HYSAN is one of the most effective hydraulic simulation packages available. A must have design tool for all fluid power engineers and designers. The HYSAN result - Efficient hydraulic system design. Fluid power and Computer Aided Design (CAD) meet.
HYSAN offers dynamic simulation of Hydraulic systems. This innovative software provides dynamic simulation capability to hydraulic designers at any stage of the design process: component development, system design concept, modeling new systems with existing components, or troubleshooting field problems. Modeling elements are applicable to any hydraulic hardware.
HYSAN calculates the non-linear time response of hydraulic components and systems. The graphic interface and built-in equation generator make this an easy-to-use package. Transient response plots and tabulated data of pressures, flows, forces, accelerations, velocities, displacements ...
With HYSAN software you can quickly predict and easily optimize design performance, stability, and energy efficiency before machining and assembly. Reduce your product lead-time and Research & Development costs. HYSAN provides dynamic simulation of hydraulic components and systems to obtain predictions of time response, performance, and stability. Output consists of transient response plots and tabulated data of pressures, accelerations, velocities, displacements, forces, flows, etc.

Element Library
Any hydra-mechanical system can be modeled by graphically assembling the basic elements in HYSAN. This toolbox shows the graphic elements you can use to create models including volumes, orifices, areas, lines, masses, pump motors, pistons, etc.
The extensive HYSAN Element Library contains:
- Red Hydraulic Elements
- Green Translational Elements
- Yellow Rotational Elements
- Blue Functions
- Rigid Body Elements
- Multi-colored Elements
The Multi-colored elements represent the association between the Hydraulic, Translational, and Rotational elements.
Library and Figure elements provide access to assembled groups of elements for:
- ISO valve configurations
- Slider crank
- Check Valves
- Solenoid forces
- Additional Components
Your own groups of elements can be stored as a file and retrieved for repeated utilization.

FAQs
What is the purpose of HYSAN Software?
HYSAN provides dynamic simulation of hydraulic components and systems to obtain predictions of time response, stability, and performance. Output consists of transient response plots or tabulated data of pressures, flows, displacements, velocities, accelerations, forces, etc.
What kinds of systems can be analyzed with HYSAN?
HYSAN is not directed toward a specific system, but any hydraulic, mechanical system can be modeled by assembling the basic elements from the extensive HYSAN element library.
What are the units of measurement in the software?
HYSAN provides three sets of traditional English and three sets of Metric units, as well as, Custom units. Conversions between the various sets of units are also provided.
How accurate is HYSAN?
The accuracy obtained using HYSAN is best characterized by first establishing whether the modeling elements mathematically represent the physical system, and secondly, the ability to define the parameters of the model. When these conditions are met, HYSAN obtains good physical numbers. When the modeling elements do not accurately describe the physical system, then HYSAN will obtain the correct mathematical solution, but poor physical answers.
Is Training available?
Yes, there are two 1-day training courses, Introductory HYSAN Training and Modeling Hydraulic Systems in HYSAN. Course description and pricing are provided on the HYSAN Corporation Services page. Consulting service is also offered.
What is ME&S?
ME&S stands for Maintenance, Enhancements, and Support. HYSAN software comes with the first year’s ME&S included. This includes phone and written support. Enhanced versions are sent at no additional cost. After the first year, this service is extended for an annual fee.
About Us
The Hydrasoft Corporation provides simulation services to the hydraulic industry, develops and licenses the HYSAN software product. HYSAN software is used to model and predict component and system behavior. HYSAN software is used exclusively by Hydrasoft Corporation consulting services. Hydrasoft Corporation was incorporated in 1984.
The first Version of HYSAN was implemented over 30 years ago on an Apple IIE computer running on an 8 bit Z80 chip. Since then, Hydrasoft Corporation has responded to the advances in the hardware and systems, while continually improving the HYSAN software and maintaining an easy to use, intuitive, user interface.
HYSAN’s element library is comprehensive and at the same time clear and easy to use.
