Paul, is that an answer to my query , or you mean to say that its a compromise
to save time?
My understanding is that these are general guidelines to be followed in large facility designs (to save time). Plus what happens when a fluid flows up?
If every non-critical flow meter's installation were to be microanalyzed what would that do to the overall design process/schedule?
