Steps of solution:Hardy Cross Method • Assume best distribution of flow that satisfies the continuity • Compute hf = rQonin each pipe • Compute for each circuit • Evaluate • Compute Qrevised = Q +ΔQ • Repeat steps 1) – 5) beginning with revised Q until desired accuracy is obtained.(ΔQ<± 1) • r= RL/Dm; L is length of pipe and D is inside diameter in SI units. • R= 10.675/Cn ; R is resistance coefficient, n = 1.852 ≈2 and m = 4.8704 ≈5

For the left side circuit ΔQ1can be estimated as follows: • A • r=1 • r=2 35 • 70 ΔQ1 • r=4 C • D 30 30 • 100 ΔQ1=
For the right side circuit ΔQ2 can be estimated as follows: 20 15 50 A r=5 B r=1 r=1 35 ΔQ2 35 30 C ΔQ2=
Hence the corrected flows in the individual pipes are: • ΔQ is added to Q in the clockwise flow • ΔQ is subtracted in the anticlockwise flow
Repeating the same steps to calculate ΔQ1 and ΔQ2: • A • r=1 • r=2 17 • 57 ΔQ1 • r=4 C • D 43 30 • 100 ΔQ1=
