[BUG] Flow direction in a pipe #384

@nabily-met

Description

@nabily-met

What is your problem ?

The actual pipe can have a negative flow for a negative DP. This can cause problems when using the pipe to determine a flow distribution.

What should happen ?

The equation of the pipe should be changed from: DP_f = - (1+ fouling/100) * Kfr * Q^2 / rho; to DP_f = - (1+ fouling/100) * Kfr * Q*abs(Q) / rho;
This correction was made to the valves, but not for the pipes.
