%X Sa£¿etak For the analysis of a pressure pipe system with multiple reservoirs, a numerical algorithm for initializing the flow in the system is developed. This algorithm finds real hydraulic head values in junctions of a pressure pipe system by using an iterative method. Also, it determines the orientation and amount of the flow rate for an arbitrary given pressure pipe system and a number of reservoirs. By comparing the presented method with a classical three-reservoir problem, it might be said that the proposed method performs a hydraulic head correction in junctions in an inverse way. The method is implemented in the computer code developed for the analysis of an arbitrary pressure pipe system
