Pipe Flow Wizard Manual

The document provides an overview and description of the Pipe Flow Wizard software program. It describes the program's main functions as calculating pressure drop, flow rate, internal pipe diameter, and maximum pipe length. It also outlines the inputs required for each calculation, such as roughness, pipe dimensions, fittings, fluid properties, and pressure/flow conditions. The overview explains the program's user interface has four windows that can be navigated between using the Layout menu.
