Split Pipe Length

In the Split Pipe Length drop-down list select Segment Length or Cut Pipe Length:

Segment Length

Allows the pipes to be split into segments of a particular length between selected components or selected features that are adjacent to the pipe. The split is made by inserting pipe assemblies into the branch. Tube length around bends and elbows is calculated as the centerline length.

Cut Pipe Length (Used for spool length)

Allows the pipes to be cut at a particular length between selected components or selected features that are adjacent to the pipe. The cut is made by inserting pipe assemblies into the branch. Tube length around bends and elbows is calculated as the centerline length.

Minimum Final Tube Length

Restricts the length of the final tube to the final length value. If the final tube length is below this value, the previous spools are adjusted to make the final length within its tolerance.

Input the following dimensions to the pipe in the Split Pipe Length part of the Split Pipe window:

• Segment Length - Segment Length must not be less than 100 or unset, if the length is set less than 100 or unset, an Error window is displayed.

  

• Minimum Final Tube Length

The downstream components at each split may be inserted into the existing branch, a new branch or a new pipe depending on what is chosen from the Move down-stream components to part of the Split Pipe window. If a new branch or pipe is requested, the new items are given a default name based on the pipe name.

Select the assemblies to insert into the branch where the split occurs, refer to Pipe Assemblies and Assembly Build Origin for further information. Click Split to split selected pipes using components (refer to Component Picks for further information) or selected features adjacent to the pipe (refer to Feature Picks for further information).
