HARDY-CROSS

Ley de continuidad de masa en los nodos : "La suma

algebraca de los caudales en un nuedo debe ser igual a cero

Ley de conservacin de la energa en los circuitos : " La

suma algebraica de las perdidas de energa en los tramos que
conforman un anillo cerrado debe ser igual a cero"

os : "La suma
e ser igual a cero

ECUACIONES BSICAS
La ecuacin de Hazen & Williams
originalmente expresa :

PROCESO PREVIO AL CLCULO

1. Sealar los nodos
2.Pre-establecer el sentido del flujo
3.Definir los circuitos
4. Definir el recorrido en el sentido de las manecillas del reloj
5. Construir una tabla para el clculo iterativo.
