What is PIPENET?
PIPENET is a powerful software tool for rapid flow analysis of pipe and duct networks. Three modules ensure that, no matter how extensive or complex your network, PIPENET will perform.
PIPENET sets the standard leads the way in flow analysis the best! PIPENET starts at the design phase. It performs pipe sizing and pump selection calculations in the steady state. From there it goes all the way to computing hydraulic loads for pipe stress analysis and support design, through several optional stages depending on exactly what the user requires. PIPENET has been in use across the globe for over 25 years, by companies large and small, including many multinationals, in the oil and gas, process, fire protection, ship building, and power generation industries. PIPENET is flexible, offers a wide selection of units, user-defined pipe schedules, fittings libraries and pump charactersitics. PIPENET is constantly being updated and enhanced, putting us at the forefront of pipework and pipeline design technology. SUNRISE SYSTEMS is accredited with ISO 9001. PIPENET Spray Sprinkler Module sets the global standard for the design of fire protection systems especially in the oil, gas and process plant industries - deluge, ringmain, sprinkler or foam concentrate systems. PIPENET Standard Module is the perfect tool for solving general flow problems with liquids, gases or steam in pipe and duct networks cooling water systems, steam distribution systems, HVAC systems.
