Analyser fast loop - Choked Condition

Hi,

Thanks first of all for a wonderful software. Hoping that someone can help me out here.

Am I correct that the software will warn if the flow through the line will be choked?

I am trying to size an Analyser fast loop in 1/2" OD tubing. The run length will be 100 mtrs and a pressure drop of 1640 kPa. Fluid is a gas with density 12.52 kg/m3, flowing at 37 C, and viscosity 0.01 cP.
I would need a flow velocity of at least 30 mtrs/s to achieve the required response times.

Thanks in advance.
