PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler – Advanced Topics
Webinar agenda:
1.Pumps:
Why are there three options for pump curves? What do degeneration factors mean? How can we estimate required pump sizes? How do I switch pumps on/off?
2. Virtual nozzles for deluge systems:
What is the advantage of using them? When must we avoid using virtual nozzles? How to model systems using elastomeric deluge valves? How can we switch on/off banks of nozzles?
3. Combining sub-systems:
Why are firewater ring mains and deluge systems modelled separately? Why is it important to combine sub-systems to create a global system? What preparatory work must I do for combining sub-networks? How can I use copy/paste to create networks quickly?
4. Loops and High Points:
What tools does PIPENET offer for eliminating elevation errors? When is it important to input high points in a single pipe?
5. Block and Break status in pipes:
What is the purpose of block and break? Why does block sometimes lead to failure to calculate? Why may I wish to use break? What is the accurate way to model a break?
6. Debottlenecking techniques:
Sorting. Colouration. Creating and using a path.
