Pipephase loop network model does not solve
Pipephase loop network model does not solve
(OP)
Hi. I have working on a pipephase loop network model for a while now for our system. I think its time to get some outside help. For some reason, I could make it working. The best result that I could get is to make the iteration converge but still the software says "BASE CASE NOT SOLVED". So I am confused now on how to deal with it. I am starting to think that this software is not applicable to this model. FYI: We are using pumps to deliver water to the sink. I think it might have something to do with the configuration of the pumps. I have tried using pump curves but still no effect. I hope I can get a few tips from experts here.

RE: Pipephase loop network model does not solve
Pipephase used to have a bug that had a big bias toward flowing from low numbered nodes to high numbered nodes. If you numbered your nodes from sink to source you would get really strange answers. This might be a similar (but more subtle, I think that one got fixed 5 years ago) bug.
