Review of new flow friction equations: Constructing Colebrook explicit correlations accurately
Pavel Praks, Dejan Brkic
Using only a limited number of computationally expensive functions, we show a way how to construct accurate and computationally efficient approximations of the Colebrook equation f…
Short Overview of Early Developments of the Hardy Cross Type Methods for Computation of Flow Distribution in Pipe Networks
Dejan Brkić, Pavel Praks
Hardy Cross originally proposed a method for analysis of flow in networks of conduits or conductors in 1936. His method was the first really useful engineering method in the field…
An efficient iterative method for looped pipe network hydraulics
Dejan Brkic, Pavel Praks
Original and improved version of the Hardy Cross iterative method with related modifications are today widely used for calculation of fluid flow through conduits in loops-like dist…
Accurate and efficient explicit approximations of the Colebrook flow friction equation based on the Wright-Omega function
Dejan Brkić, Pavel Praks
The Colebrook equation is a popular model for estimating friction loss coefficients in water and gas pipes. The model is implicit in the unknown flow friction factor f. To date, th…
Unified Friction Formulation from Laminar to Fully Rough Turbulent Flow
Dejan Brkic, Pavel Praks
This paper gives a new unified formula for the Newtonian fluids valid for all pipe flow regimes from laminar to the fully rough turbulent. It includes laminar, unstable sharp jump…
Symbolic regression based genetic approximations of the Colebrook equation for flow friction
Pavel Praks, Dejan Brkic
Widely used in hydraulics, the Colebrook equation for flow friction relates implicitly to the input parameters; the Reynolds number, and the relative roughness of inner pipe surfac…
