Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PipeSizing()

PipeSizing::PipeSizing ( double  airflow, double  airlinePressure, double  designVelocity, double  atmosphericPressure  )

inline

Constructor for PipeSizing - This calculator finds the velocity of compressed air through all the different piping involved in the system.

Parameters

airflow	double, volumetric flow velocity - cfm
airlinePressure	double, Pressure through the pipe - psi
designVelocity	double, The air flow velocity that is meant to flow through the pipe.

Attention

Constraints: 20 fps is recommended for a header, but it should never exceed 30 fps - ft/sc

Parameters

atmosphericPressure

double, generally it will be 14.7 - psia
