2019 #2 A pipe network consists of 31 branches and 28 internal nodes. A single reservoir node is also connected to the system. The network supplies water to 22 district heating customers, where water is extracted from the network. 1. If each customer uses 0.5 l/s of water, what is the required water flow at the reservoir node? 2. How many loops are present in the system? 3. Can the flow be calculated without iteration in such a system? Give a good argument for the answer? 4. What information is required to calculate the pressure drop in the system? 5. What information is required to calculate heat losses (temperature drop) from the system?
