Spreadsheet-Based Pipe Networks Analysis for Teaching and Learning Purpose Introduction In a teaching of methods for piping systems there are tensions between the study of fundamental scientific theory and the application Analysis of pipe networks using linear theories book design methodologies.

For example, students usually understand the basic idea of the well-known Hardy Cross. A convenient way of realizing graphs for pipe networks is by using a form of an incidence matrix.

The incidence matrix [A] for a pipe network of N nodes and M pipes can be expressed as follows: [A] = [aij | 1≤i≤N, 1≤j≤M], where aij is 1 if qj is incident to ni and the flow direction is Size: 1MB.

complication ofthis analysis. However, the flow inpipe network can beanalyzed by using one ofthe three most popular analysis methods: the Hardy-Cross method, the Linear Theory method and the Newton-Raphson method.

The Hardy-Cross method stillenjoys considerable popularity among practicing engineers because ofitssimplicityCited by: 1. The possibility of solution of a matrix of equations for pipe networks relating flows to head losses and including flow balance at each node thus arises.

Except for laminar flow that is rarely encountered in waterworks practice, the flow-head loss relationship for pipes is non-linear. Maybe other schools use this approach and then this would be the book for them. As for the rest of the book, it does not touch on Caur or Foster networks until page (of a page book).

In fluid dynamics, pipe network analysis is the analysis of the fluid flow through a hydraulics network, containing several or many interconnected branches.

The aim is to determine the flow rates and pressure drops in the individual sections of the network. This is a common problem in hydraulic design.
