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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
