Hi
I need a help for "FindRoot" function.(See attached file)

Also I got an error sample file(Inst_Colebrook_pipe_data.sm) which was downloaded from this forum.

Please, guide me to solve this error.

Hello [userlink]Novice[/userlink]

An important thing is that Q1 must be undefined while you define the system of equations - and as for now even when you call FindRoot; there is a buil-in function Clear(...) for this.

Secondly as for now when there are numerical functions involved in the evaluation of the unknowns this plugin has issues (in this case the issue is in if(f(Q1), that can be replaced by cases(...), however the algorithm then fails to solve for the given initial guess);

FindRoot_test_0.sm (38 KiB) downloaded 41 time(s).

I'm working to improve both these things.
If you like my plugins please consider to support the program buying a license; for personal contributions to me: paypal.me/dcprojects

You MUST draw the diagram first !
Get inspired from NDTMA Collab [Colebrook Node].

Comments:

1. The "GivenFind" solver does not necessarily solves.
I have recollection solving for 22 variables in Mathcad 11.
It was necessary to constrain some variables, and this was
possible from some existing models, in fact: just refining
within the "solvability" of the system.

2. You have 7 'Q' indexed: that's not viable.
Instead: Q1, @2, Q3, ... Q7

3. Please rework the project to ease reading/understanding.
