RUN
RUN, DX, DY, DZ, NDIV, NEND, ESTRT, EINC
Defines a pipe run.
DX,DY,DZIncrement (in terms of the active coordinate system components) to determine run end point. Increment is applied to branch starting point (BRANCH) or end point of previous run (whichever was later).
NDIVNumber of divisions (elements) along branch (defaults to 1). A node is generated at the end of each division.
NENDNumber to be assigned to end node of branch (defaults to MAXNP +
NDIV).ESTRTNumber to be assigned to first element of branch (defaults to the previous maximum element number (MAXEL) + 1).
EINCElement number increment (defaults to 1).
Notes
Defines a pipe run from a previous point to an incremental point. Nodes (and elements) are generated straight (in the active coordinate system). Elements are of type PIPE16 straight pipes. Material properties, real constants, and loads are derived from the previously defined piping specifications. Piping loads and specifications are defined via PCORRO, PDRAG, PFLUID, PINSUL, POPT, PPRES, PSPEC, PTEMP, and PUNIT commands.
Generated items may be listed (or displayed) with the standard commands (NLIST, ELIST, NPLOT, EPLOT, ETLIST, RLIST, etc.).
Items may also be modified (NMODIF, EMODIF, RMODIF, etc.) or redefined as desired.
