    Correct An Incorrectly Modeled Tee

    Uploaded by

    Femi Richard Fakoya
    The document provides instructions for correcting an incorrectly modeled tee in AutoPIPE. It describes common warning messages that may occur when checking model consistency related to tees. It explains that a tee should be constructed using either 1) one segment for the header and a separate segment for the branch, or 2) three individual segments connected to the same point. The document then provides step-by-step instructions for fixing an incorrectly modeled tee, where half the header was one segment and the other half and branch were a separate segment. The steps involve splitting, deleting, and rejoining segments to properly construct the tee using three individual segments.

    Correct an Incorrectly Modeled Tee

    Using AutoPIPEs Tools> Model Consistency Check or when performing an Analysis you may encounter one or more of the the
    following messages:
    W726- 8: Ki nk i n st r ai ght r un of 90. 0 at poi nt ???
    W726- 170: The t ee at poi nt B19 has onl y t wo l egs
    E801- 1: FATAL ERROR : Unst abl e syst em. Need suppor t at node ??? Di r ??
    One cause for the warning message is a tee that was modeled incorrectly. Navigate to the point in question for inspection and
    to correct the warning message.
    AutoPIPE Tee should be constructed using one of two methods:
    1. The header is one segment and the branch is a separate segment.
    2. Three individual segments connected to the same point.
    Note: when coping / pasting between models only the initial paste to point is connected correctly. Any additional node
    points will need to be connected manually using same technique below. To find all the disconnected pairs, use
    AutoPIPE command, Tools> Model Options> Edit> Coincident Node Tolerance (0- no check) = (enter value > 0.00),
    and then Tools> Coincident Node Checker. A report will be displayed showing all the pairs of node point with in the
    tolerance values that are not connected.
    A Tee component should never be modeled as 1 segment for the header and the branch piping with a separate segment
    connected as the other of the header piping as indicated by the image below when using AutoPIPE XM 09.00.00.12 and
    lower:

    Note: The highlighted section is segment D and the header in grey is segment E.

    Steps to fix this incorrect modeling approach:
    1. Current point is E06.

    Although not
    necessary, sometimes
    it is easier to perform
    this process by adding
    a few node points
    near the Tee
    intersection


    2. Using the keyboard
    arrows, press the left
    arrow (in this case)
    once to select the
    segment E side of the
    tee point D09

    3. Press the delete
    button once

    4. Select current point
    D09, verify it is now a
    run point, Modify>
    Convert Point to Run>

    5. Current point is still
    D09, select Edit>
    Segment> Split. The
    next available
    segment number is
    used ( in this case
    segment N) and the
    segment is split about
    node D09.

    6. Select the first point
    on the branch, D28,
    again use the key
    board arrow, select
    the branch side of Tee
    point D09, and press
    the delete button
    once.

    7. Select E06, Insert run ,
    Add points (b) before
    / (a) after = Before (in
    this case), Name of
    Point = D09, press
    enter key or OK
    button.


    8. Select Edit> Segment>
    Join.
    Notice that the
    segment has been
    joined and has now
    been renumbered.

    9. Select current node
    point = D28

    10. Insert Run, Add points
    (b) before / (a) after =
    After (in this case),
    Name of Point = E06,
    press enter key.
    11. The Tee point dialog
    should appear, select
    the type of tee, and
    press OK button.




    12. Finished.
    When youre familiar
    with the steps this
    operation will only
    take 45 60 secs.

    Be sure to use the
    correct insert run
    direction Before /
    After.
