Is there a way of adding new pipework database to netsys heating/water services calculations? I have a series of calcs to carry out on heating circuits made of Uponor MLCP pipes. There is a database for Uponor Unipipe which is the predecessor of the MLCP press, but the default pipe fittings are cast iron rather then uponor press fittings. The later have more pressure drop across them...
Hi Bronislaw,
We have addressed this issue with Uponor fittings and will be included in the next update. In the meantime, to resolve please download the file at this link.
*Please then close Hevacomp and go to: C:\ProgramData\Bentley\Hevacomp V8i\Hevacomp\Pipework
*Replace the PIPEFITT_MASTER.dat file with that downloaded.
*Open Hevacomp Netsys, go to Fittings>Default Bends tees. To refresh, change the Pipe Fitting Standard - the fittings will then be visible. The correct fittings will be included in calcs thereafter.
