    This document provides an overview of pipe network analysis using the Hardy Cross Method. It discusses key concepts such as nodes, loops, and pipes in a network. The Hardy Cross Method is then described as iterating to find flows such that the total inflow equals the outflow at each node and the net head loss around each loop equals zero. An example problem is provided to demonstrate solving a pipe network using the Hardy Cross Method with the Hazen-Williams equation.

    Pipe Network Analysis

    Pipe Networks
    A hydraulic model is useful for examining the impact
    of design and operation decisions.
    Simple systems, such as those discussed in last
    chapters can be solved using a hand calculator.
    However, more complex systems require more effort
    even for steady state conditions, but, as in simple
    systems, the flow and pressure-head distribution
    through a water distribution system must satisfy the
    laws of conservation of mass and energy.

    Pipe Networks
    The equations to solve Pipe network must
    satisfy the following condition:
    The net flow into any junction must be zero

    Q 0
    The net head loss a round any closed loop must be
    zero. The HGL at each junction must have one and
    only one elevation
    All head losses must satisfy the Moody and minorloss friction correlation

    Hardy Cross Method


    This method based on:

    Q 0

    Junction

    Loop

    1- A distribution of flows in each pipe is estimated such that


    the total inflow must be equal to the outflow at each junction
    throughout the network system
    The interflow in the network has +ve sign
    The outflow from the network has -ve sign

    2- Neglect Minor loss


    3- In each loop
    h

    Loop

    4- If the direction of flow is clockwise it take +ve sign,


    otherwise it take ve sign

    5- If h

    the flow is correct other wise, the assumed


    flow must be corrected as the flowing:
