This paper proposes generalized models and methods for calculating flow distribution in hydraulic circuits with lumped parameters. The main models of the isothermal steady-state flow of medium are classified by an element of the hydraulic circuit. These models include conventional, implicitly specified by flow rate, and pressure-dependent ones. The conditions for their applicability, which ensure the existence and uniqueness of a solution to the flow distribution problem, are considered. We propose generalized nodal pressure and loop flow rate methods, which can be applied regardless of the forms of specific element models. Final algorithms, which require lower computational costs versus the known approaches designed for non-conventional flow models, are substantiated. Proposed models, methods, algorithms, and their capabilities, are analytically and numerically illustrated by an example of a fragment of gas transmission network with compressor stations.

Throat Width

 This paper aims to conduct a series of laboratory experiments in case of steady-state flow for the new size 7 ̋ throat width (not presented before) of the cutthroat flume. For this size, five different lengths were adopted 0.535, 0.46, 0.40, 0.325 and 0.27m these lengths were adopted based on the limitations of the available flume. The experimental program has been followed to investigate the hydraulic characteristic and introducing the calibrated formula for free flow application within the discharge ranged between 0.006 and 0.025 m3/s. The calibration result showed that, under suitable operation conditions, the suggested empirical formulas can accurately predict the values of discharge within an error ± 3%.

Aquifer Test

A simple, approximate but practical graphical method is proposed for estimating the storage coefficient independently from the transmissivity value, provided that quasi-steady state flow data are available from a pumping test. In the past, quasi-steady state flow distance-drawdown data have been used for the determination of transmissivity only. The method is applicable to confined and leaky aquifers. The application of the method has been performed for various aquifer test data available in the groundwater literature. The results are within the practical limits of approximation compared with the unsteady state flow solutions.

The influence of the steady state flow solution on the aero-elastic stability behaviour of an annular compressor cascade shall be studied in order to determine sensitivities of the aero-dynamic damping with respect to characteristic flow parameters. In this context two different flow regimes — a subsonic and a transonic case — are subject to the analysis. The pressure distributions, steady as well as unsteady, on the blade surface of the NACA3506 profile are compared to experimental data that has been gained by the Institute of Aeroelasticity of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) during several wind tunnel tests at the annular compressor cascade facility RGP-400 of the Ecole Polytechnique Fe´de´rale de Lausanne (EPFL). Whereas a certain robustness of the unsteady CFD results can be stated for the subsonic flow regime, the transonic regime proves to be very sensitive with respect to the steady state solution.
