Example 07 - Pressurized Pumping Stations

    Pressurized Pumping Pipe System

This example demonstrates the power and flexibility of the Pipe Flow Expert software. Some pipes and pumps have been temporarily removed from the system, leaving isolated legs where flow will not occur. Pipe Flow Expert is able to identify this situation and find a solution for the remainder of the pipe network.

Example 08 - Water Circulation Piping System

   
Water Piping Re-Circulation System

This system demonstrates a recirculation design where some of the fluid is returned to the start point to be circulated again and some of the fluid is removed. The fluid to be removed is specified by setting a Demand Out-flow from the system at various nodes.

Example 09 - Air Handling Cooling System

   
Air Handling Units with Water Cooling

This system provides water to the cooling coils of 12 AHU’s located on 3 floors of a building, with the cooling tower located at the roof level.

Example 10 - Size Pipes for Compressed Air System

   
Compressed Air System Piping Design

This example shows a compressed air system where the air is distributed around a 'ring main loop' system to maximize distribution efficiency when some demands are not in use.

Example 11 - HVAC, Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Pipe System

   
Find pump head required to deliver a specified flow rate

In this example, the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning system to three floors is provided via ceiling mounted fan coil units. The cooling circuit contains a separate pump to supply each floor.

Example 12 - Water Distribution Design Calculates Reverse Flow in a Pipe

   
Calculating flow direction in water distribution system

A water distribution system has been designed to deliver a different set flow rate to each of 4 take-off points. During the drawing of the system, Pipe 2 has been added assuming a flow direction that is not correct. This example shows how Pipe Flow Expert recognizes this and reverses the incorrect flow direction.
