Inputs Needed to Call the Sludge Pipe Function

sludgepipe_origin - a 3 by 1 matrix with x,y,z positions corresponding to the point where the manifold will be drawn
ND_sludge - the nominal diameter of the sludge waste pipe - from this we can find the actual inner diameter and actual outer diameter of the pipe based on the schedule of pipe being used.
tank_length - the length of the tank
orifice_rad - the radius of the orifice hole
orifice_dist - the distance between successive orifices
EN_PipeSpec - an enumerated pipe schedule which specifies a number which corresponds to a pipe schedule that states the amount of water pressure the pipe can handle before it fails. The pipe schedule affects the inner and outer diameter of the pipe.

Inputs Found from Pipe Database Function

sludepipe_inr - the radius of the inner cylinder defined by inner(ND_sludge,EN_PipeSpec)/2
sludgepipe_outr - the radius of the outer cylinder defined by outerradius(ND_sludge)
