The final lecture of the module on pipe flow and viscous pipe flow discusses the Hardy Cross Method for solving pipe networks work systematically. A specific problem involving discharges at nodes and continuity equations is elaborated, leading to calculations of head loss and flow distributions. The lecture concludes with a set of exercises to reinforce the learning on the Hardy Cross Method and introduces future topics in fluid dynamics.
