Remember that, in the input processor, CAESAR II displays all node labels and restraints at the From Node or To Node. Bend nodes are identified at the tangent intersection point (TIP) of the two straight runs forming the bend but this TIP is not on the pipe. Remember, too, that this To Node number (the TIP) will end up as the end of the bend in the analysis and output.
If you recalculate the length into and out of each node with this shift in mind I believe you will match the CAESAR II terms.
I found this to be a rather difficult task. It was made easier when I added additional nodes to my model - these nodes are placed at the beginning and end of each bend. Instead of referencing the TIP in determining the lengths into and out of the bend nodes, use these explicit nodes at each end of the bends.
