An assessment of hydraulic design of trickle laterals considering effect of minor losses
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2007)
The accurate design of trickle irrigation laterals needs to determine the total energy losses that includes the pipe friction losses along the lateral line and the local pressure losses, sometimes called minor losses, due ...
Computer-based analysis of hydraulic design variables for uniformly sloping microirrigation system laterals
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2015)
Adequate analysis of lateral hydraulics is a very important concern for the design and evaluation of microirrigation systems. One of the main tasks of the lateral hydraulic calculation is to determine the pipe geometric ...
Determining operating inlet pressure head incorporating uniformity parameters for multioutlet plastic pipelines
(Asce-Amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2008)
An important objective of a microirrigation system is to determine the proper operating inlet pressure head, ensuring the desired level of water application uniformity as well as the allowable pressure head variation along ...
Computer-based analysis of explicit approximations to the implicit Colebrook-White equation in turbulent flow friction factor calculation
(ELSEVIER SCI, 2009)
The implicit Colebrook-White equation has been widely used to estimate the friction factor for turbulent fluid-flow in rough-pipes. In this paper, the state-of-the-art review for the most currently available explicit ...
An Assessment for Hydraulically Efficient Design of Uniformly Sloping Submain Lines
(Wiley, 2015)
Determining the actual pressure head profiles along the submain lines with a uniform slope is very important for proper hydraulic design of water distribution systems. In practice, there are three general pressure head ...
Neuro-fuzzy approach in estimating Hazen-Williams friction coefficient for small-diameter polyethylene pipes
(Elseiver Sci Ltd., 2009)
Low-pressurized multiple outlet pipelines are extensively used to uniformly distribute irrigation water under different types of low-volume micro-irrigation systems. Polyethylene (PE) is the main pipe material for smooth ...
A MathCAD procedure for commercial pipeline hydraulic design considering local energy losses
(ELSEVIER SCI, 2010)
Using a power type equation for friction factor, this paper presents a design procedure which provides accurate solutions for three types of pipe design problems (Types A-C) taking into consideration the effect of local ...
New Software (Multi-flowCAD) Development for Sub-Main Line Hydraulic Design: Computational Algorithm, Computer Visualization and Implementation
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016)
Hydraulic design of multiple outlets sub-mains in a distribution network system, often referred to as manifolds, laterals or gated pipes, which are extensively used in practice, has been a major problem tackled by many ...
Hydraulic analysis and direct design of multiple outlets pipelines laid on flat and sloping lands
(Asce-Amer SOC Civil Engineers, 2006)
Adequate hydraulic analysis of a multiple outlets pipelines is very important for the design and evaluation of irrigation systems. In this paper, an analytical direct design procedure for a single multiple outlets pipelines ...
Hydraulıc analysis for commercial pipeline design using mathcad
(Nova Science Publishers, 2010)
The paper presents a design procedure improved by using power law friction factor, which provides accurate solutions for three types of pipe design problems (Types A, B and C) with considering effect of local losses. The ...
