Details on Component Data for the Partial Network End

The partial network end features one connection point, which is connected to an existing pipe. The partial network end is not a consumer! The component is used only for linking to a partial network start drawn elsewhere in the pipe network.

Calculation

Height of partial network start compared to this partial network end

Either the height levels between partial network end and connected partial network start can be set equal (Outlet height is equal to inlet height) or the Drawn height difference or the manually entered difference (Height determination) is used. The height has an effect on the geodetic heights and, thus, on the pressure loss by hydrostatic pressure change (uplift).

Link

Use the Connect button to connect a partial network start. The Partial network end dialog closes and you can select any partial network start in the drawing. After selecting the partial network start, the outlet dialog is opened up again. The name of the partial network start is displayed after Connected to:. The button Connect will be deactivated subsequently. In case you intend to connect a partial network end to another partial network start, you will have to unfix the connection via the Unfix button first.

Use the button to display the connected partial network start in the drawing. The program zooms in on the part and also marks the position with an arrow. After clicking the button , the program displays both partial network start and partial network end of the connection and marks the connection with a broken line. The partial network start is additionally marked with an arrow in this view.

You can assign partial network end connections to corresponding partial network starts even before detecting the network.
