초록

There are three methods for analyzing flow and pressure distribution in looped water distribution networks (the loop method, the node method, the element method) taking into consideration hydraulic parameters chosen as unknown. For all these methods the non-linear system of equations can be solved by iterative procedures. The paper presents a different approach to this problem by using the method of variational formulations for hydraulic analysis of water distribution networks. This method has the advantage that it uses a specialized optimization algorithm which minimizes directly an objective multivariable function without constraints, implemented in a computer program. The paper compares developed method to the classic Hardy-Cross method. This shows the good performance of the new method.
