Applies To Product(s): AutoPIPE, Version(s): 2004, XM, & V8i Environment: N/A Area: Reports Subarea: Original Author: Bentley Technical Support Group Dec 2014, AutoPIPE V8i 09.06.01.10 Problem: When multiplying the Flange volume by the Flange density it does not equal the reported Flange Weight, why? Answer: Although the dialog reports a default Flange Density of 0.283 lbf/ft3, AutoPIPE internally uses a density of 283.0 lbf/ft3. This is the equivalent of 0.164 lbf/in3 or 4500 kg/m3. This value is hard coded into the program If the user were to set the Flange Analysis material to 'NS' (Non-Standard) and set the density column to 283, they would see the correct weight displayed. This will be fixed in a future version of the program, See Also Bentley AutoPIPE External Links Bentley Technical Support KnowledgeBase Bentley LEARN Server Comments or Corrections?
