LOOP
• Diasumsi aliran mengikuti arah jarum jam (+) dengan
prosedur sbb:
 Asumsikan nilai Q, Q = 0.
 Tentukan diameter setiap pipa, hitung kecepatan
 Hitung HL dari Q dengan salah satu rumus HL
 Jika HL = 0, maka penyelesaian adalah benar.
 Jika HL  0, maka gunakan faktor koreksi, Q,
untuk semua Q dan ulangi dari langkah (2).
 Untuk tujuan praktis, perhitungan biasanya
dihentikan bila HL < 0.01 m atau Q < 1 L/s.
 Nilai Q dihitung sbb:

All pipes are 1 km long and 300 mm in diameter, with
a friction factor of 0.0163. Assume that minor losses
can be neglected.
 PENYELESAIAN:

1. Assume values of Q to satisfy continuity

equations all at nodes.
2. The head loss is calculated using:
HL = K1Q2 and HL = hf + hLm
3. Minor losses can be neglected:
 hLm = 0, Thus HL = hf
4. Head loss can be calculated using the Darcy-
Weisbach equation L V2

Since HL < 0.01 m, then correction has to be applied.

Since HL ≈ 0.01 m, then it is OK.

Thus, the discharge in each pipe is as follows (to the
nearest integer).
