Abstract: To develop a methodology to fulfill hydraulic analysis on asymmetry and irregular topology structure networks, we proposed a method that can fully adapt on 3D asymmetric and irregular topology structure of networks. The modeling approach is illustrated in detail and compared with traditional methods using a district heating scenario. It provides instructions for other researches.

Key words: district heating, network modeling, renewable energy, industry waste heat, building energy conservation
