2 Color of Pipe: Velocity in m/sec Pipe Flow Expert Results Key f = flow in Modelling a 'Tee' fitting: The flow rate through the 'Tee' w ill be different for each flow path, therefore tw o fittings must be used (one on each flow path) to model the 'Tee' pressure loss. N8 8.0m P8, f =80.00 N9 8.0m 1.0m should be added to this pipe. pipe leaving 'Branch connection' therefore a 'Branch Tee' fitting should be added to this pipe. In this example the pipes sizes that connect to the tee are unequal. The fitting sizes used are matched to the pipe sizes as appropriate. N1 0.0m 2.0m N3 5.0m P1, f = P2, f= P3, f = P4, f = N2 0.0m N4 5.0m N6 5.0m P5, f=80.00 N10 5.0m N5 5.0m P9, f= FCV 80 P10, f = Example: Fixed Flow Pumping to 3 Tanks (Fixed flow rate pump) P6, f =80.00 P11, f=80.46 P7, f=80.00 N12 5.0m P12, f =80.46 N13 5.0m N11 5.0m P15, f =89.54 N7 5.0m N14 7.0m P13, f=80.46 P16, f=89.54 FCV 80 This system models a fixed flow rate pump transfering 250 of fluid from a supply container to 3 holding tanks. The flow to the top tank is controlled by a FCV set at 80. The centre tank has been isolated by closing pipe P14. The balance of the flow, 170 is forced along the path to the bottom tank. Click the Calculate button to solve the system. P14, f =80.46 P17, f =89.54 N17 7.0m N16 5.0m N15 7.0m 1.0m N18 7.0m 1.0m NOTE: When a fixed flow rate pump is used there must always be at least one path through the system where the flow rate is not controlled. If a Flow Control Valve was fitted to pipe P15 the total outlet flow would not equal the total pump flow rate and hence it would not be possible to find a balanced solution for the system. Pipe Flow Expert can be configured to display the flow rates, fluid velocity or total pressure drop on the drawing. View the results table to see all information, or use the mouse to hover over a pipe, a node or a component to display individual details in the hint pane.
