AS 2885.1 Pipeline Local Pressure

Calculate AS 2885.1 pipeline local stationary pressure from elevation for dry and wet pipelines.

For dry pipelines external pressure is ignored. For wet pipelines the external pressure is included. The internal fluid density is assumed constant. Use the Result Plot option to plot pressure versus elevation.
