*AUXLINES

Data format :

A single line with one value followed by an arbitrary number of lines with 4 values each :

IRIS
DI_1 DET_1 RHO_1 PINJ_1
...
DI_i DET_i RHO_i PINJ_i

Status:

Optional

Purpose:

To define auxiliary lines (K&C, booster, hydraulic, buoyancy) related to a riser group

Details :

Parameter Description
IRIS_i Identification number of the set of elements defining a rigid riser
DI_i Internal diameter of the auxiliary line [m]
DET_i Water tightness diameter of the auxiliary line [m]
RHO _i Internal fluid specific gravity of the auxiliary line [1]
PINJ_i Injection pressure in the auxiliary line [N/m2]

Restrictions:

The selected riser group IRIS must have been previously defined.

Note

The auxiliary lines are riser dependant. Consequently, they must be defined for each riser group (*RISER). Hence, we can have several time *AUXLINES in an input file.

Example :

*AUXLINES 3 0.1143 0.1524 1.32 1E5 0.09525 0.1143 1.32 2.89E7 0.05398 0.06985 1.025 3.45E7

3 auxiliary lines are defined, related to the riser group number 3
