e!Sankey is a software application for the graphical visualization of quantitative flows using Sankey diagrams. It is designed to represent material, energy, cost, or other measurable streams in a structured and proportional format. The software allows users to input numerical data and automatically generates flow diagrams in which arrow widths correspond to quantities. This enables the clear identification of main flows, losses, and distributions within systems such as production processes, energy systems, or cost structures. e!Sankey is used for technical analysis, reporting, and presentation purposes. It supports structured diagram creation, customization, and export, making it suitable for engineers, sustainability professionals, analysts, and consultants who need to communicate complex flow relationships in a visual format.
