Summary of Verification Models
All published compressible flow calculations of which AFT is aware are for single pipes. Because of the simplicity of the single pipe verification models, no views of the models are included in this documentation. Comparison of AFT Arrow predictions to the published calculation results is included herein for twenty-one cases from 8 sources. Below is a summary of the cases.
