Details on Technical Data for Nodes

Information about the Component Data Dialog for Nodes in the Rohrnetzberechnung Quartiersnetze.

Nodes refer to pairs of T-pieces that connect the flow and return pipes.

Note: To open the component data dialog for nodes, the district network must be defined, as the associated Tees must be identified and the orientation of the node must be determined.

In the dialog, you specify the node's placement type and configure the local prioritization for the node's item sets. Any global settings defined in the corresponding Priorities (…), dialogs for nodes in the Item Sets column of the Pipes and Item Sets dialog will be overridden for that node if necessary.
