Link components

Shows step-by-step how to link components which are calculated in pairs.

Before you begin

Some components of the Heating discipline are regarded in pairs within the pipe network calculation and require a connection with the matching partner component.

Navigate to:

Procedure

Open the Components section.
Click Connect components <.
One after another, click both components you want to connect.

If you want to link two further components, click them one after another.
Finish the process by Esc.

Results

The components are linked to each other and will be correctly detected and calculated in the pipe network calculation.
