ECONOMIC PIPE SIZING USING THE GENERAUX EQUATION

This case study investigates a pipe sizing method based on an implementation of the Generaux Equation. This method aims to determine the optimum pipe size by accounting for the total cost of ownership.

“With Flownex®’s scripting capabilities, many problems which are not directly solved by Flownex®’s built-in components may be added by the user with relative ease.”
