Chem32,

 

Another reference , if needed .

 

Bernoulli Theorem at the node + equation of continuity .

 

Excel with the solver function is of good help for this kind of problem (iterative)

 

 

Hope this helps

There was something about Lohms law that might help. I don't have any experience of using it so feel free to shoot me down... http://www.theleeco....ng.cfm?topics=1

Be interested to know how this stacks up against the other methods.
