UNIT OPERATIONS
Node point in the piping network where pressure change occurs for some specied reason. Other unit operations go to and from nodes.
Pipe models the pressure drop through a pipe segment or set of segments.
Pump to move incompressible ow. Performance curve can be entered.
Compressor/Expander to move compressible ow. Performance curve can be entered.
Flash for phase separation under specied conditions.
Valve simple valve for specifying outlet pressures, pressure drops, etc.
Control valve comprehensive valve module for calculating pressure drops and/or ow through the valve based upon valve size and characteristics, ow
conditions, and material properties.
Heat Exchanger add or remove heat from a stream.
ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT FACILITIES
Fittings and elbows a library of ttings and elbows is provided with PIPE. Flow resistance may also be entered as L/D.
Commercial pipe schedules are built into the program.
Equipment sizing routines are provided for orices, pipes, valves, and pressure vessels.
Equipment spec sheets are provided and can be customized.
Purchase and installed costs of major equipment can be estimated.
Equipment symbols can be added or customized by the user.
Vapor venting depressurizing facility provided.
FLUID FLOW METHODS
Darcy-Weisbach Equation for single phase ow either compressible or incompressible.
Baker Method for two phase ow. Determines if the ow is dispersed, bubble, slug, stratied, plug, annular or wave ow and applies appropriate
equation.
Beggs and Brill Method for two phase ow. Identies the ow as segregated, intermittent, distributed, or transition ow to select correct equation
parameters.
Isothermal ow equation for long distance transmition lines.
Hazen-Williams equation for water sprinkler re protection systems.
Fritzsche equation pressure drop formula for steam systems.
Critical ow Critical ow of compressible uids is always detected and reported. At the users option, it will limit ow.
DIERS (DESIGN INSTITUTE FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF SYSTEMS)
Fully integrated into the program calculations
