Element Property Definition
The fluid pipe connector elements FPC2D2 and FPC3D2 are defined by two nodes, which can be coincident. If the nodes are not coincident, the length of the fluid pipe connector element is ignored in the viscous loss computations.
You must associate a fluid pipe connector section with a set of fluid pipe connector elements.
Element-Based Loading
None.
Element Output
- FPMFL
-
Pressure drop across the element.
