Use Pipe Sizing

You can select a dynamic sizing method for the piping for the pipe systems in a project using the Pipe Sizing dialog.

Note: The Pipe Sizing dialog cannot be used to size Sanitary system piping.

  2. Click Multi-Select tabAnalysis panel Duct/Pipe Sizing.
  3. In the Pipe Sizing dialog, select a sizing method from the drop list: Velocity, or Friction. Specify one of the following options associated with the selected method:
    • Only to size pipes according to the parameters for the selected method (Velocity or Friction) exclusively.
    • And to force sizing pipes to meet the parameters that you specify for both Velocity and Friction.
    • Or to allow sizing pipes according to the parameters of either Friction, Velocity, or both.
