The Pipe Segment Control window lists information about batch fragments and anomalies in a selected pipe segment and serves as the starting point for editing pipe segments.
To access the Pipe Segment Control window
-
On the Pipeline Control window, select the appropriate row header on the Segment Summary.
The Pipe Segment Control window appears.
From this window, you can access functionality described in the following sections:
-
Fragment Insert dialog
-
Fragment Edit dialog
-
Anomaly Edit dialog
-
The following table details the items on the Pipe Segment Control window.
|
Items |
Description |
Table and Field |
|---|---|---|
|
Section |
Section record that the segment belongs to. |
pipe_segment.section |
|
Batch Region |
Pipeline. |
pipe_segment.pipeline |
|
Region Status |
State provided by the message set assigned to the pipeline. This will normally be Active and green or Inactive and red. |
pipeline.flag.cmsg |
|
Flowing |
If Yes, no valve has shut in flow in the segment. |
pipe_segment.flowing |
|
Reverse |
If Yes, flow is proceeding in the reverse direction. Note: When this occurs, most items labeled upstream or downstream still remain that way. Upstream and downstream refer to the normal flow direction in most usages. |
pipe_segment.reverse |
|
Outside Diameter |
Segment outside diameter. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.pipeod |
|
GSV Flow Rate |
Flow rate in the segment based on GSV corrected volume. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.frval |
|
Capacity |
Dry capacity of segment. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.capacity |
|
Linepack |
Corrected volume in segment. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.linepack |
|
Mass |
Mass in segment. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.mass |
|
Avg Pressure |
Average pressure in segment. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.pave |
|
Avg Temperature |
Average temperature in segment. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.tave |
|
Upstream - Object |
The node or pipe segment that this segment connects to at the upstream end. This refers to true upstream. If the segment is reversed, the value will change to the object previously downstream. |
connectivity.ups_objname, in the connectivity record that references the segment with the field connectivity.dns_objname |
|
Upstream - Linepost |
Mile or kilometer marker for the normal upstream end of the segment. The unit information defined in the unit profile is displayed. |
pipe_segment.ups_linepost |
|
Upstream โ Section GSV Post |
This field is blank. |
|
|
Downstream - Object |
The node or pipe segment that this segment connects to at the downstream end. This refers to true upstream. If the segment is reversed, the value will change to the object previously upstream. |
connectivity.dns_objname, in the connectivity record that references the segment with the field connectivity.ups_objname |
|
Downstream - Linepost |
Mile or kilometer marker for the normal downstream end of the segment. |
pipe_segment.dns_linepost |
|
Downstream โ Section GSV Post |
Total linepack in section from first segment in the section up to and including the current segment. |
pipe_segment.lptotal |
