Modeling Campus Pipe Distribution Systems Using Pipe2000

Pipe2000 has unique capabilities to model facilities piping systems. This provides a powerful modeling platform for all the various distribution systems which may be part of a campus or industrial facility physical plant. The following distribution systems can be modeled and analyzed using Pipe2000.
Potable Water Distribution Systems (including fire hydrants) Chilled Water Supply & Return Systems Hot Water Distribution Systems Gas Distribution Systems (natural gas, air or any gas) Saturated or Superheated Steam Distribution Systems
Pipe2000 employs the same easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) which means that once a user becomes familiar with the GUI they can utilize the full range of the Pipe2000 capabilities. The user merely selects the appropriate module from the following Pipe2000 menu.

The first five types of models listed use the powerful KYPipe engine which analyzes all kinds of liquid distribution systems. The KYSteam engine is used for saturated and superheated steam distribution and the KYGas engine handles all gas distribution systems. In addition a transient liquid flow module is available to do pressure surge analysis on any liquid flow system. This adds an extremely important capability to this comprehensive package of distribution system modeling software.
Using a scaled campus map, the following is a simple example of a Campus Chilled Water Distribution System.
