Insulation Part

This section provides a brief overview of the Insulation Part Definition table.

The Insulation Part table allows selection of insulation for pipes.

In Data Setup, this table should be assigned to the Insulation Part item in the resource table of Piping/Tubing Discipline Resources with a Specification criteria.

This section describes the customization options of the Insulation Part table.

A typical Insulation Part table is shown below:

V_NominalSize(string)	MinTemperature(Fdeg)	MaxTemperature(Fdeg)	V_InsulationType(string)	V_InsulationThickness(in)
2in	50	100	Thermal	0.0625
4in	50	100	Thermal	0.0625
10in	50	100	Thermal	0.125
12in	50	100	Thermal	0.1875
14in	50	100	Thermal	0.1875
20in	50	100	Thermal	0.1875
22in	50	100	Thermal	0.1875
32in	50	100	Thermal	0.25
38in	50	100	Thermal	0.25
40in	50	100	Thermal	0.25
46in	50	100	Thermal	0.25
48in	50	100	Thermal	0.25

To customize the table, enter a line in the spreadsheet for each nominal size and temperature range.

Parameter	Type	Importance	Description
V_PipeInsulationSpec	String	Deprecated	Provides information for selection of the correct insulation. This column is used only if criteria value is <AnyValue>.
V_NominalSize	String	Required	Used for filtering
V_MinTemperature	Temperature	Required	Used for filtering
V_MaxTemperature	Temperature	Required	Used for filtering
V_InsulationType	String	Required	Provides information for selection of the correct insulation.
V_InsulationThickness	Length	Required	The thickness for the nominal size and temperature range
V_LinearWeight	Length	Optional	Linear weights of insulation (0 if not set)
