Étape 01 · Source / base
Source & Duty Definition
Declare flow, fluid, elevations, and cases.
Objectif
Declare the fluid, design-flow cases, boundary pressures, static elevation difference, and operating scenarios before line sizing or equipment review.
Questions d’ingénierie
- What normal, minimum, maximum, startup, shutdown, and credible transient cases govern?
- What are the source and destination levels, boundary pressures, and available hydraulic head?
- What fluid density, viscosity, temperature, solids, and material/pressure-class requirements apply?

Contraintes / considérations de conception
- Unit conversion can normalize values but does not establish design flow, fluid properties, source/destination boundary conditions, or operating cases.
- Surge and transient analysis are outside the current live tool boundary and require a separate system model where applicable.
