or
Longitudinal wave
.
• Press ENTER.
These displays will only be indicated if
Other material
is selected.
Roughness of the lining material
The flow profile of the fluid is influenced by the roughness of the inner pipe wall.
The roughness is used for the calculation of the profile correction factor.
In most cases, the pipe roughness cannot be exactly determined and must therefore be estimated.
• Enter the roughness of the lining material.
