Defines the fluid density. Specify the fluid density when the internal fluid the piping system transports significantly affects the weight loads.
Typical units (depending on your unit system):
-
lb/in3
-
kg/cm3
-
kg/dm3
-
kg/m3
When the specific gravity of the fluid is known, you can type that instead of the density. For example, you could type 0.85SG. Specific gravities are converted to the appropriate densities immediately on input. To type specific gravity, follow the numeric value with the letters SG (no spaces). The software automatically converts this value to density.
