How does one analyze a piping system that involves two or more different types of pipe? The system I'm working on involves FRP connected to HDPE...then back to FRP. Pipe sizes are also different, but I can handle that.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

We've passed the equation issue some time ago.

I do believe, which is exactly why all of my remaining questions and statements were attempting to discover why you would think about making such an oversimplification?

Biginch-The equation issue, dx/dt plus/minus c, etc is in response to your question of reflections. Further, I have tried to answer questions related to boundary conditions, such as inlet and outlet of the simple system.
MOC is basically solving equations. One could make the simplification more complex, by considering friction, heat addition, etc. I don't see what that would accomplish.
Could you be specific with your question?
