Dynamic SVG

About Flowing Pipe

Flowing Pipe is a Dynamic SVG that shows a horizontal process pipe with a visible liquid channel. Brushed-steel walls and flanges frame a liquid stream whose streaks move along the pipe, so operators can see at a glance whether fluid is circulating and in which direction. The graphic is a front view with no text, labels or status markers, and its background is transparent.

Key Features

• Animated liquid flow: Two streak layers move continuously along the channel and hold still when their phase values stop changing.
• Direction and speed control: The flow phase bindings set the motion, so the streaks can run left to right or right to left at the rate you define.
• Volumetric shading: Layered metallic shading keeps the pipe and liquid looking three-dimensional in any color.
• Flanges and collars: Both ends are closed with flanges, collars and bolts for a realistic front-view appearance.

Customization

Configure the appearance in the engineering tool. BasicColor sets the pipe body color, LiquidColor sets the liquid color, and LiquidLevel adjusts the liquid level inside the channel. FlowPhaseMain and FlowPhaseFine control the motion of the two streak layers. Bind both to the same time-based value from your project to produce smooth, layered flow.

Use Cases

Suited for process overview screens, pump and line mimics, control room displays and operator panels where fluid movement must be read quickly.

Compatibility

Works with WinCC Unified and WinCC V8. Import the SVG into your project and bind its properties to PLC tags or project tags.
