Comments, Questions, and Answers about AutoPIPE TTA Analysis:
Item #1: What steps are required to perform a Thermal Transient Analysis (TTA) in AutoPIPE?
Item #2: When AutoPIPE calculated the gradient does it uses TTA Pipe & Insulation at room temperature?
Item #3: Would you please explain to me what is the difference between ambient and room temperature?
Item #4: What is the correct ambient temp for use with TTA analysis in AutoPIPE?
Item #5: How good are the results from TTA?
Item #6: Is the through wall gradient analysis output (delta T1, delta T2, Ta and Tb) automatically accounted for in the flange design in AUTOPIPE?
Item #7: Can a technical justification be provided for ignoring Delta T2 variation whenever the maximum linear temp variation is negative?
Item #8: Can AutoPIPE TTA be used to analyze a Pipeline carrying steam?
Item #9: Manually create and import a .TTP (Thermal Transient Profile) file
