Pipelines and Pipe Networks
Agenda/Topics:
• Pipelines and Pipe Networks
• Pipelines Connecting Two Reservoirs
Note: The first type of problem can be solved by a direct approach, but the second and third types
involve iterative procedures as shown in the following examples.
In the vicinity of the pipeline summit (S in Figure 4.2), the pressure head may take on a negative value.
ℎ𝐴 = ℎ𝑓1 + 𝐻𝐽
ℎ𝐵 = ℎ𝑓2 + 𝐻𝐽
ℎ𝐶 = ℎ𝑓3 − 𝐻𝐽
