Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You are given a pipe network with variable discharges at each node. Outline your steps to ensure the Hardy Cross Method produces reliable results, including all calculations and iterations.

💡 Hint: Document each step meticulously to track your progress.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a test case where the initial assumed discharges fail to satisfy the continuity equation. Identify the errors and suggest corrections.

💡 Hint: Consider what happens when inflow doesn't match outflow.
