Chapter:
Find size of circular sanitary sewer to serve population of `50000` with sewage flow is `180` lpcd. The natural slope of ground is 1 in 1250.Take peak low 2.25 of DWF and n=0.012.Sewage should run half full during peak flow condition.
Solution:
Assuming `80%` of the supplied water reaches the sewer, the average sanitary discharge is given by
`Q_(DWF)=(0.8**50000**0.18)/(86400)`
`=0.0833\ m^3/s`
The peak sanitary discharge is, `=2.25**1.388**10^-3=0.1874\ m^3/s`
Now, For half full circular sewer,
`q=0.1875=(pid^2)/8**(1/0.012)**(d/4)^(2/3)**(1/1250)^(1/2)`
or, `d=0.778\ m`
Adopting commercially available size, `d=0.80\ m`
`A=(pid^2)/8=0.2513\ m^2`
`V=Q/A=0.1874/0.2513=0.74\ m/s`
Check for self Cleansing velocity during dry weather flow:
`q/Q=0.0833/0.1874=0.444`
or, `q/Q=(theta)/360[1-(360 sin theta)/(2 pi theta)]^(5/3)`
Solving this, we get,
`theta=169.9^0`
and `v/V=(1-(360 sin theta)/(2 pi theta))^(2/3)=0.96`
or, `v=0.96**0.74=0.71`
Here 0.60 < 0.71 < 3 m/s. Okay
Check for self cleansing velocity during minimum flow.
Let, `Q_(m i n)=1/2 Q_(DWF)`
Thus,
`q/Q....
