The special emphasis has been given to modeling of the dynamic behavior of the piping system connected to equipment in this report. The detailed ANSYS model has been used to estimate dynamic properties of the attached equipment. The finite-element approximation of the attached equipment components has been used to create the calculation models of piping systems.
