Example[edit]

Given a network of seven nodes, source A, sink G, and capacities as shown below:

In the pairs  written on the edges,  is the current flow, and  is the capacity. The residual capacity from  to  is , the total capacity, minus the flow that is already used. If the net flow from  to  is negative, it contributesto the residual capacity.

Capacity	Path
	Resulting network

Notice how the length of the augmenting path found by the algorithm (in red) never decreases. The paths found are the shortest possible. The flow found is equal to the capacity across the minimum cut in the graph separating the source and the sink. There is only one minimal cut in this graph, partitioning the nodes into the sets  and , with the capacity
