Parameters such as pipe diameter, wall thickness, material, insulation, insulation material, insulation thickness, and pipe medium/water coefficient (which can be selected based on the ratio of the medium’s density to that of water, or depending on whether a hydrostatic test is required) are all available as dropdown options. The effective internal cross-sectional area, the external surface area per meter of pipe, material density, insulation density, the net weight per meter of pipe, the weight per meter of pipe without insulation but filled with a medium (e.g., gas, and in cases where no hydrostatic test is needed, 0 can be selected in the pipe medium/water coefficient field), and the weight per meter of pipe with insulation and a filling medium are all filled in automatically. Simply enter the pipe length and the additional weight (such as the weight of valves, flanges, instruments, etc.) to calculate the pipeline load in KN. It is possible to determine the weight for multiple pipes, with the total load being displayed at the top Surely the experts have better ways to calculate loads; this sharing is intended for beginners as a guide to getting started in this work.
