To Convert a Straight Pressure Pipe Segment to a Curved Segment in Profile View in Part-Based Pressure Networks

You can convert a straight pressure pipe segment to a curved segment in profile view.

You are prompted to enter the radius of curvature and to specify whether the curve is a sag or crest curve. The cut length and maximum allowable deflection of the selected pressure pipe are converted to an effective radius.

You can also use the Bend grip in profile view to convert a straight pressure pipe segment to a curved segment of any radius.

  1. Select the pressure pipe segment, in profile view, that you want to convert to a curved segment. The Pressure Networks contextual ribbon tab is displayed.
  2. On the Modify panel, click Edit Network Profile Layout Tools Find. The Pressure Network Profile Layout ribbon tab is displayed.
  3. On the Modify panel, click Bend Find.
  4. Enter the radius of curvature for the bend.
  5. Specify whether the curve is a sag or crest curve.
