Some details will be missed, but it will provide a basis. Pump selection calculations may be carried out, or alternatively, manufacturer's data for pumps can be used.This will be a section detailing the overall function, and some specifics, of the various pipes, pumps, and other devices. The PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler Module is ideal for firewater ringmain. The user can specify the inlet pressure or flow alternatively, the overall flow density can be made to match the requirements of the design rules. For example, with the most remote nozzle option, the PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler Module will determine the hydraulically most remote nozzle and set its flow to the required value. The PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler Module can be run with several options for deluge and sprinkler systems. The PIPENET Halon/CO2 Module is suitable for systems employing an inert gas such as Halon 1301 or CO2, complying with the requirements of the NFPA12 and NFPA12A rules. Fittings data are built-in, in compliance with the NFPA rules. The program has 8 pipe schedules built-in, and the user can add other pipe schedules which can be stored in library. A network in PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler Module can have up to 5 pipe types, which can be lined or unlined. Minimum flow control valves can also be input. The PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler Module is ideal for all types of water-based systems, including deluge, ringmain, sprinkler and foam solution systems.ĪND HALON/CO2 MODULES perform calculations for different fire scenarios, and model breaks and blocks in the network with ease. P I P E N E T - S P R AY / S P R I N K L E R The PIPENET Spray/Sprinkler Module is specially developed for the design of fire protection systems in accordance with the NFPA13 and NFPA15 rules.

Not only can the PIPENET Transient Module Networks with items such as pipes, operating valves, variable speed pumps, air release and vacuumĬontrollers and transfer functions to represent the dynamics of instruments and valves. Hydraulic transient forces can be output to a separate file, which can then be used by pipe stress The PIPENET Transient Module can modelĪnalysis programs for further processing. With the PIPENET Transient Module any variable can be selected by the user to be output in graphical or tabular form. Or specified by the user, as can time steps for tabular, graphical and forces output. The time step forĬalculation can be determined by the program Transient forces or even modeling control Own initial and final steady states or use initial The PIPENET Transient Module can find its The PIPENET Transient Module can be used for predicting Speedy and cost-effective means of in-houseĪvailable for setting up boundary conditions. PIPENET - TRANSI EN T MODULE The PIPENET Transient Module provides aĪ wide choice of functions and tables are Others which can then be stored in a library. The range of fittings available in the program is from the Crane manual. Control valves can be set for pressure, flow, differential pressure or valve position. With the PIPENET Standard Module the network can be as simple or complex as necessary, and can be made up of pipes, ducts, fittings, pumps, fans, check valves, control valves, nozzles, filters, orifice plates and other models. The PIPENET Standard Module includes several useful features, such as checking for cavitation, correction for ambient pressure decrease with height, calculation of hydraulic gradients and modeling of leaks. Of gases is provided in the program to whichĬreate libraries of pumps and fans, which can then be inserted anywhere in the network.
Pumps and fans can be connected in series orĬomply with the IFC67 Standard. Water properties are built-in and steam properties PIPENET - STANDARD MODU LE The PIPENET Standard Module is for generalįlow analysis in networks of pipes or ducts,Ĭarrying liquids, steam or gases.
