The use of Excel Functions will be explained for the type of functions that read information and then deliver an answer.

An examples of such a function is presented here, where a function receives as inputs the nominal diameter (in inches) and the shedule for a carbon steel pipe.

As a result it will be delivered the inside diameter.

Defining the name of the function

Defining the name of the function

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

6

Defining the name of the function

Pipe

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

7

Defining the name of the function

Next, consider the case of the unit to be used for the nominal diameter, which may be in Imperial units or the International System.

Pipe

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

8

Defining the name of the function

Next, consider the case of the unit to be used for the nominal diameter, which may be in Imperial units or the International System.

In the case of this example, to indicate that the function receives nominal diameters in inches, one adds "Imp". Thus the name is

Pipe

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

9

Defining the name of the function

Next, consider the case of the unit to be used for the nominal diameter, which may be in Imperial units or the International System.

In the case of this example, to indicate that the function receives nominal diameters in inches, one adds "Imp". Thus the name is

Pipe

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

Pipe_Imp

Defining the name of the function

Next, consider the case of the unit to be used for the nominal diameter, which may be in Imperial units or the International System.

In the case of this example, to indicate that the function receives nominal diameters in inches, one adds "Imp". Thus the name is

Pipe

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

Pipe_Imp

Third, one indicates the type of pipe material. In our example it is carbon steel, and this is indicated as "CS". So, the code is

11

Defining the name of the function

Next, consider the case of the unit to be used for the nominal diameter, which may be in Imperial units or the International System.

In the case of this example, to indicate that the function receives nominal diameters in inches, one adds "Imp". Thus the name is

Pipe

In our case, all functions start with the word "Pipe"

Pipe_Imp

Third, one indicates the type of pipe material. In our example it is carbon steel, and this is indicated as "CS". So, the code is

12

Pipe_Imp_CS

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

13

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint

14

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint

Finally, we indicate which are the parameters to be delivered. In this case they are the nominal diameter "dn" and the shedule "sch". Thus, the name of the function is as follows

15

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint

Finally, we indicate which are the parameters to be delivered. In this case they are the nominal diameter "dn" and the shedule "sch". Thus, the name of the function is as follows

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch

16

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint

Finally, we indicate which are the parameters to be delivered. In this case they are the nominal diameter "dn" and the shedule "sch". Thus, the name of the function is as follows

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch

The function ends with a parenthesis in which you enter the values of the input parameters. With this object you can, for example, insert the values as

17

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint

Finally, we indicate which are the parameters to be delivered. In this case they are the nominal diameter "dn" and the shedule "sch". Thus, the name of the function is as follows

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch

The function ends with a parenthesis in which you enter the values of the input parameters. With this object you can, for example, insert the values as

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch(4, STD)

18

Next, we indicate which parameter is to be calculated. We begin by calculating the inner diameter, so we added “Dint"

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint

Finally, we indicate which are the parameters to be delivered. In this case they are the nominal diameter "dn" and the shedule "sch". Thus, the name of the function is as follows

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch

The function ends with a parenthesis in which you enter the values of the input parameters. With this object you can, for example, insert the values as

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch(4, STD)

or you can enter the cell addresses where these values are. For example

Finally, we indicate which are the parameters to be delivered. In this case they are the nominal diameter "dn" and the shedule "sch". Thus, the name of the function is as follows

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch

The function ends with a parenthesis in which you enter the values of the input parameters. With this object you can, for example, insert the values as

Pipe_Imp_CS_Dint_dn_sch(C2, C3)
