Displays and defines the general properties of the selected pipe run.

Because pipe run properties are customizable in the piping reference data, only the properties that are required by the software are documented.

Pipe run properties are divided into several different categories: Standard, Testing, Temperature and Pressure, Surface Treatment and Coating, Insulation and Tracing, and Responsibility. Select the category that you want to define values for by using the Category option.

Standard

Pipeline

Select the pipeline system to which you want the pipe run to belong. The last pipeline system that you selected is the default. Select More to display all defined pipeline systems. You can create a new pipeline in the Systems and Specifications task.

Name

Displays the name of the pipe run. The pipe run name is based on the Name Rule selection. If you specify a name in this box, the software automatically sets the Name Rule box to User Defined.

Name Rule

Specify the naming rule to name the pipe run. You can select one of the listed rules or specify the pipe run name yourself in the Name box.

Specification

Select the pipe specification for the pipe run. Only those pipe specifications that are allowed in the pipeline that you selected appear in the list. You can assign pipe specifications to pipeline systems in the System and Specifications task. You can define pipe specifications in the reference data. See the Piping Reference Data Help for information on defining pipe specifications.

Nominal Diameter

Specifies the nominal pipe diameter (NPD) to use for this pipe run. The pipe specification controls the available NPDs in this list. If you select an equipment nozzle as the starting point of your pipe run, the software automatically uses the NPD of the nozzle as the NPD of the pipe run. You can select the NPD units to display on a session file basis using the Tools > Options Command on the Units of Measure Tab (Options Dialog).

Flow Direction

Specifies the flow direction for the pipe run. If you select an equipment nozzle as the starting point of your pipe run, the software automatically uses the flow direction of the nozzle as the flow direction of the pipe run.

Pipe Run Type

Specifies the type of pipe run that is routed. The default value is Undefined for a non-jacketed pipe run. Select Core Pipe Run to route a core pipe run. Select Jacket Pipe Run to route a jacketed pipe run. This property is used to differentiate a core pipe run and a jacketed pipe run.

Minimum Slope

Specifies the minimal slope value for the pipe run. You can specify the slope as a ratio, a percentage, or in degrees.

ratio

If a run drops 1/4" for every foot of horizontal distance, specify the slope as 1/4"/1'-0".

percentage

If a run drops 1" for every 10" of horizontal distance, specify the slope as 10%.

degrees

A five-degree slope can be specified as 5deg.

When routing a sloped pipe, use a slope value that is larger than the Minimum Slope for the pipe run to avoid Invalid Slope Angle To-Do-Record (TDR). The software compares design slope and minimum slope of the pipe run. If there is a difference between the values caused by any modification, the software generates a TDR.

Slope Direction

Specifies the direction type of the pipe run slope. If it is set to Single, the pipe run slopes either up or down. You can change this to Multiple if needed. If it is set to Multiple, the pipe run can slope both up and down. You cannot change this setting back to Single once Multiple is selected.

Schedule Override

Specifies the thickness override for parts in the pipe run. If the piping specification rules do not allow you to override components, then the software disables this option. To change the options on the list, edit the Schedule Thickness select list in Catalog.

Correlation Status

Specifies whether the object has been correlated to an object in a P&ID. The list is defined by the EFWCorrelationStatus select list.

Correlation Basis

Specifies whether the object is correlated to a P&ID object. The list is defined by the EFWCorrelationBasis select list.

Correlate Object

Indicates that the object has a correlating object in a P&ID.

No correlation is required

Indicates that the object does not have a correlating object in a P&ID.

Correlation Approval Status

Specifies whether the object is approved with discrepancies in the three-dimensional data compared with design basis data. The list is defined by the EFWCorrelationApprovalStatus sheet in the AllCodelist workbook.

Topology mismatch approved

Indicates that the object topology mismatch can be ignored.

Data and Topology mismatches approved

Indicates that the object data and topology mismatches can be ignored.

None

Indicates that you do not approve a mismatch.

Testing

Testing Requirements

Specifies the type of non-destructive testing required for welds. To change the options on the list, edit the Testing Type select list in Catalog.

Testing Type

Specifies the type of non-destructive weld testing for the welds. To change the options on the list, edit the Testing Type select list in Catalog.

Testing Percentage

Specifies the percentage of the welds on this pipe run that are to be tested. This option is available only if you are viewing pipe run properties.

Temperature and Pressure

  • Temperature and pressure values are controlled by UndefinedServiceLimitsruleOpt, which is available on the DefaultProjectOptions sheet in the Piping Specification.xls workbook. If this option is set to 5, then you must specify temperature and pressure values for all the pipe runs. If this option is set to 10, the software displays a warning: "No Temperature and pressure data has been defined for the pipe run being modeled. As a result, compliance with the temperature/pressure service limits as defined in the piping specification cannot be confirmed. Do you want to continue modeling the pipe run anyway?"

  • If your pipe specifications are material-driven, it is still recommended that you specify at least one set of temperature and pressure values for the pipe run.
