T-Cross Networks¶
The following examples are all constructed as a T-shaped networks.
T-Cross¶
Water:

- water_tcross(results_from='openmodelica', method='colebrook')¶
- Parameters
results_from (str, default "openmodelica") – Which converted net should be loaded: openmodelica or stanet
method (str, default "colebrook") – results_from = “stanet” -> prandtl-colebrook, results_from = “openmodelica” -> prandtl-colebrook or swamee-jain
- Returns
net - STANET resp. OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_water_networks.water_tcross()
Gas:
- gas_tcross1(method='nikuradse')¶
- Parameters
method (str, default "nikuradse") – If results_from = “stanet”, which results should be loaded: nikuradse or prandtl-colebrook
- Returns
net - STANET network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_gas_networks.gas_tcross1(method="pc")
In the subsequent gas network a sink from the previous net has been replaced by a source.

- gas_tcross2(method='nikuradse')¶
- Parameters
method (str, default "nikuradse") – If results_from = “stanet”, which results should be loaded: nikuradse or prandtl-colebrook
- Returns
net - STANET network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_gas_networks.gas_tcross2(method="pc")
Valves¶
Water network with two opened valves and two sinks.

- water_tcross_valves(method='colebrook')¶
- Parameters
method (str, default "colebrook") – Which results should be loaded: prandtl-colebrook or swamee-jain
- Returns
net - OpenModelica network converted to a pandapipes network
- Return type
pandapipesNet
- Example
>>> pandapipes.networks.simple_water_networks.water_tcross_valves()
