This topic summarizes the behavior of the pipe parameters under the GENERAL section of the Line Process Data window. There are parameters that you set directly, and others that you set from the Pipe Data Library dialog.
For all pipe standard options — ANSI, DIN, ASME DN, and Other — you can edit the Pipe material and Pipe spec parameters directly.
The following table summarizes the behavior of the software and availability of parameters for editing according to the pipe standard you select.
|
