Trane Pipe Designer is a design and analysis tool that streamlines the pipe design process. The program determines required pipe sizes, finds the critical path for proper pump sizing, and calculates pressure drops through valves/fittings or from elevation changes.
Legs can be open or closed to atmospheric pressure and can be constructed of steel, copper, or PVC pipe, circulating virtually any non-compressible fluid of known viscosity and specific gravity. Customizable cost entries let you generate a complete bill of materials including the required volume of fluid needed for the system.
Trane Pipe Designer also accurately models existing systems by allowing the specification of pipe sizes in each leg of the system. Detailed reports provide the information needed to fully analyze and troubleshoot the calculation results.
The program is formatted in a very simple to navigate tab format using the popular Windows platform. There are two tabs in the program, the Design Conditions tab and the Piping System tab.
