Head Summary

The Head Summary Report can be accessed for the menu Reports -> Head Summary Report.

The Head summary will list all the operation heads which you selected for the calculation and provides valuable information about the operation of each head.

You can select any of the column headings such as Node, Flow, Pressure etc. and the column will be sorted in ascending or descending and will alternate each time you make a selection. Some items may be highlighted in RED text which is a indication that the item is outside its scope. An example would be a head with a Actual pressure or 0.85 bar and the minimum pressure is specified as 1.00 bar as the Actual pressure is below the minimum pressure the Pressure will be in RED text. The same method is used for the required design density and the actual design density.

Pipe summary

The Head Summary Report can be accessed for the menu Reports -> Pipe summary

The pipe summary will list all the hydraulically significant pipes in the calculation which are any pipes where water is flowing.

You can select any of the column headings such as Node, Flow, Pressure etc. and the column will be sorted in ascending or descending order and will alternate each time you make a selection. Some items may be highlighted in RED text which is a indication that the item is outside the limits for warning which you can change in the Calculation Options.

Check summary

The is a summary of the FHC project and will provide you with various information such as the number of pipes, heads and loops in your FHC project. It will also display any warnings with a short message.

Calculation summary

This allows you to display the information which was provide when the calculation was completed.If you have modified the FHC project then this option will not be available to you until you next calculate this project.

Project Data

This will output the raw data for the open FHC project in a preview window.

Export to DXF

The export to DXF option will output the current FHC project as a DXF file stored in the same folder as you have saved the FHC project file. The file name will be the same to use the FHC project except the extension been changed to DXF.

The following layers and information is exported:

Layer	Colour	Description	Unit
1	White	Pipe Layout
2	Green	Node number
3	Red	Pipe Size	mm
4	Magenta	Flow	L/min
5	Blue	Pressure	Bar
6	Green	Head area	m²
7	Blue	Pipe Length + added pipe length + Equivalent length	m
8	Red	Pipe length + added piped length	m

	Save Picture (bmp)
	The save picture menu command Reports -> Save picture will save an image of the FHC project drawing as a ‘BMP’ image file in the same folder in which the project is saved in. The file name will be the same as the project file but with the BMP file extension.
