Option Switch 82 provides further weight functionality to that in Option Switch 41 Positions 4 and 5. The latter is for basic component weights only. Option Switch 82 provides controls for the following:
-
Full (wet) pipeline weight
-
Weight of insulation
-
Center of gravity of pipeline, empty or full, with or without insulation
OS 82 Pos 1 switches on the CoG / weights facility and controls whether the output values are per pipeline or per drawing. For weight outputs, set .
The weight outputs show the following values:
-
Dry weight (pipeline empty)
-
Wet weight (pipeline full)
-
Insulation weight
-
In the previous example, weights are per drawing (Pos 1 = 1) and are output in this style on the drawing frame using the Isogen TextPos facility.
-
The pipe empty weight is derived solely from the weight of components.
For center of gravity outputs, set .
The center of gravity outputs show the following values:
-
Dry (empty) center of gravity
-
Dry (empty) plus insulation center of gravity position
-
Wet (full) pipe plus insulation center of gravity position
