A numerical approach for computing fluid flow variables for three-way components in one-dimensional (1D) fluid flow networks is disclosed. In one embodiment, a first flow configuration type of a three-way flow component is determined using geometric properties and fluid flow characteristics of the three-way flow component. Further, a first flow ratio for the three-way flow component is computed using the first flow configuration type. Furthermore, fluid flow loss coefficients for the three-way flow component are obtained based on the geometric properties and the first flow ratio. Also, equivalent pipe loss coefficients for each pipe in the three-way flow component are computed from normalization of the obtained fluid flow loss coefficients. Moreover, the fluid flow variables are numerically solved for using the obtained equivalent pipe loss coefficients, the geometric properties and the fluid flow characteristics of the three-way flow component. |
