- This small version is limited to systems of 26 nodes, 22 pipes, 16 valves and
- fittings and 2 pumps. With these limitations it is able to retrieve all the
- HYDROFLO sample problems. It will only allow you to create 10 loops and 5
- branches. Once installed (see below), the HN.DOC file can be printed. It is
- the HYDRONET full-featured version manual and is therefore very large.

- INTRODUCTION
-
- HYDRONET is a hydraulic network analysis tool based on the popular
- Hardy-Cross method. A hydraulic network is a closed pressurized
- fluid distribution system made up of pipes, fittings, valves, pumps
- and reservoirs. Examples of networks are industrial fluid conveyance,
- municipal water supply, fire protection sprinkler, petroleum transport
- and recirculating HVAC systems. In a network, many interconnected
- conveyance lines deliver liquids to numerous destinations simultaneously.
- The change in flow through any single pipe influences the flow in all
- other regions of the network. The engineer must know the operational
- steady-state flows and pressures throughout the system so that pipe and
- pump sizes and system strengths can be specified to meet cost and safety
- criteria. These steady-state flows and pressures can only be determined
- through an iterative flow adjustment process. The Hardy-Cross method
- lends itself to this task and, with the help of computers, the analysis
- of hydraulic networks becomes a straight forward process. Once a system
- is defined by describing the components in detail, various operational
- strategies can be investigated.
-
-
- The full featured version of HYDRONET provides the ability to model large
- systems of up to three thousand nodes and three thousand pipes, valves,
- fittings and pumps. Saving of datafiles, report output to file or printer
- and digitizer support is also available. This small version is limited to
- systems of 26 nodes, 22 pipes, 16 valves and fittings and 2 pumps. With these
- limitations it is able to retrieve all the HYDROFLO sample problems. It will
- only allow you to create 10 loops and 5 branches. By using the Hazen-
- Williams and Darcy-Wiesbach equations to determine pipe head losses, any
- type of incompressible fluid can be modeled in an analysis when the proper
- fluid properties and pipe conditions are known. HYDRONET also provides
- plots of the 2-dimensional system plan view, 3-dimensional view of the
- overall system, hydraulic grade lines and pump performance curves. A
- complete menu of fittings and valves are available for incorporation into
- hydraulic systems. Various control valves can be modeled and will
- accurately simulate their physical operating characteristics. If you have
- a Summagraphics or compatible graphics tablet (digitizer), x-y coordinates
- for nodes can easily be entered and 2D and 3D system graphics can rapidly be
- created.

- INSTALLATION
-
-
- INSTALL is the installation program and must be run before using the small
- version of HYDRONET. You must have 700K of space available on your hard
- disk to install this version. After starting your computer (booting-up),
- place the HYDRONET diskette in a floppy drive and type...
-
- drive:INSTALL where "drive" is the floppy drive holding the diskette.
-
- You will be prompted for the source drive and destination path to install
- HYDRONET in. You may print the HN.DOC file. It is quite large, being the
- full featured HYDRONET documentation.
-
- NOTE: HYDRONET uses overlay technology so execution speed will be enhanced
- when you use disk cache software.
-
- To start the small version of HYDRONET, move to the directory where you
- installed HYDRONET and at the DOS prompt type SMHN. You then must specify
- the type of display adapter you have. HYDRONET will take a few seconds to
- load.
