Ensure that the use of a flow net is valid. (a) Flow is steady state. (b) Boundary conditions are known or can be approximated well. 2. Prepare for a trial-and-error solution: there is no unique solution. 3. Ensure that the boundaries of the flow field are drawn to scale. 4. Define the boundaries, and determine the nature of each boundary (a) equipotential, or constant-head, boundary (b) flow line, or no-flow, boundary: commonly an impermeable boundary (c) known-head boundary; commonly the water table (d) most often encountered, two equipotential boundaries and two flow line boundaries. 5. Determine the symmetry of the flow field, if any. This may reduce the work involved-for example, bilateral symmetry would require…arrow_forward

Figure 1 shows a reticulation system. Estimate the flow rate in each pipeline using Hardy-Cross Method and Hazen-William formula up to two iterations. Adopt Hazen-William coefficient, C, as 100.
