darwin designer is asking for cost of pipe.
Hello Abhishek,
When you enter unit cost of pipes per diameters, total cost based on diameters total length is calculated for each solution, which will help you pickup cost effective solution as well.
If you don't have the actual costs of pipes, then you can enter unit costs for different materials, diameters based on costs incorporated in past projects, or if cost estimation of pipes is not a concern for you then you can use arbitrary values and ignore costs calculated in solution while deciding on best solution. Main criteria for design of pipe diameters would be pressure and velocity constraints defined and design groups created.

If you are getting any other error or having query regarding using constrains, please elaborate your query.
