Hmm, I wouldn't know.. Sorry

I don't see how you could not. Flow into the loop = flow out of the loop. The pressure just decides what the different flows are in each branch.

Hey! So we have these equations that describe flow through and pressure in a pipe. ∂p/∂t = -β/A * ∂q/∂x ∂q/∂t = -A/ρ * ∂p/∂x - F/ρ + g*Acos(α(x)) where A = cross area, β = bulk constant for water, p = pressure, q = flow, ρ = density, g = gravity constant, F = forces due to friction, α =...

The middle one. But only with 2 branches

The branches are not the problem. The problem is the branch itself, how the dynamic model for the branch will look like. This area: http://static.quality-tuning.com/images/stories/virtuemart/product/stainless-steel-y-pipe-l150-(1).jpg (just an example) The form of the branch won't matter. I'm...

Hello guys So I'm trying to model flow through a branched pipe. The equations I've used are the standard partial differential equations for a hydraulic transmission line: ∂p/∂t = -β/A * ∂q/∂x ∂q/∂t = -A/ρ * ∂p/∂x - F/ρ + g*Acos(α(x)) I've discretized and linearized these so that I can...
