I am modelling a hydro scheme which features a vertical shaft directly at the intake. So lets says the intake is J1 at elevation 100m and drops to J2 at 50m by a 50 m length of pipe before completing a 90 degree bend to horizontal.
Whe using the profile viewer, the base elevation shows this as a line spaning 100 m to 50 m elevations on the y axis and 50 m on the x axis. Does hammer "Know" this pipe is vertical, or is there some way I must define this, or does it simply not matter for transient analysis as long at I insert a minor loss to account for the 90 degree bend?
Thank you for assistance.
