Water reticulation model for Taman Maju, Parit Raja

A numerical model is developed to quantify energy head losses occurred in the water distribution network of Taman Maju, Parit Raja, Johor. A numerical computation has the advantage over a manual computation when analyzing a complex distribution network. The programming language used in this st...
