2. The sum of all head-losses along pipes that compose a complete loop equals zero.
These methods, known in literature under the name of Hardy Cross (published in 1936 and
developed further by Cornish in 1939), calculate the pipe flows and nodal piezometric
heads in looped systems for a given input, which is:
for pipes: length L, diameter D, absolute roughness k and minor loss factor ,
for nodes: nodal discharge Q and elevation Z.
