Dutch term or phrase: drukvatberekening

Promotional blurb for a company that produces stainless steel, nickel alloy and aluminium components for buildings. "Onze medewerkers werken met de nieuwste drukvatberekingssoftware". Drukvat = pressure vessel, berekening = calculation, but is there an accepted term in English for this kind of software?

Just checked with my friendly in-house engineer and he agrees that you\'d call it this so I\'m upping my confidence factor ;-) This kind of software would be used to calculate thickness of walls, size of connnections for a particular temperature, pressure, etc.
