Article Name : | | DEVELOPMENT OF SOURCE CODE FOR HARDY CROSS METHOD IN C#.NET FOR WATER DISTRIBUTION NETWORK | Author Name : | | V. P. Patil , S. D.

There are different methods of pipe network analysis but most of the methods are very complex and hence time consuming to find out the desired results manually. The Hardy Cross method is simple, easy to apply, and therefore, suitable for hand calculation. However, the Hardy Cross method converges slowly hence requires large number of iterations. The number of iterations increases enormously as the size of the network increases. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the source code for Hardy Cross method to balance the pipe network. The source code was developed in C#.NET which has many advantages over other languages such as Consistent Programming Model, Direct Support for Security, Simplified Development Efforts, Easy Application Deployment and Maintenance, .NET Framework and Languages and cross-language compatibility. | Keywords : | | |
