A Summary of the Input Data

The dialog includes a large number of input fields, but the number of values that you have to enter in order to complete the data for this Pressure Vessel is very small, as shown in the table below:

Make sure you have set all of these values correctly, and then click on OK to close the dialog.

Defining a catastrophic rupture scenario

Now that you have defined the Pressure Vessel, you can define any number of different Scenarios underneath it. The Catastrophic rupture Scenario is defined here first, as it has the simplest set of input data.

Inserting the Scenario

Select the Pressure Vessel node, and then insert a Catastrophic rupture Scenario using either the rightclick menu or the Insert gallery in the Home tab of the Ribbon Bar.

The Scenario node will be added to the Study Tree immediately. You do not have to place Scenarios on the GIS Input View, as Scenarios take their Geometry data (i.e.their location) from the Equipment item to which they belong. When you insert a new Scenario, it is automatically added to the Models Playlist for the active Run Row, and you will see that the Scenario and the Pressure Vessel are shown as selected in the tree, i.e. the Pressure Vessel is no longer shown as greyed out.

You can leave the node with the default name of Catastrophic rupture. You will only be defining one Catastrophic Rupture Scenario for this Pressure Vessel so do not need to distinguish it from other Scenarios of the same type.
