Cost = a ⋅ X<br />

or<br />

b<br />

Cost = a ⋅ X + b ⋅ X + c<br />

2<br />

where: Cost – average cost, local currency<br />

X. – variable influencing costs, e.g. flowrate or diameter, etc.<br />

a, b, c, – coefficient, - (estimated using regression techniques)<br />

All function forms are widely used. Different regression techniques are used in order to<br />

estimate the coefficients, and the common methods are non-linear analysis (Ong 1988) or<br />

fuzzy analysis (Wen and Lee, 1999), etc.<br />
