Chapter:
Design a section of combined circular sewer from following data :
Area to be served = 250 ha
- Population = 60,000
- Maximum permissible velocity = 3.2 m/sec
- Time of entry = 5 minutes
- Time of flow =20 minutes
- Rate of water supply = 280 lpcd
- Impermeability factor =0.5
- Maximum discharge =1.85 * DWF.
- Area to be served = 250 ha
- Population = 60,000
- Maximum permissible velocity = 3.2 m/sec
- Time of entry = 5 minutes
- Time of flow =20 minutes
- Rate of water supply = 280 lpcd
- Impermeability factor =0.5
- Maximum discharge =1.85 * DWF.
Solution:
Assuming `80%` of the supplied water reaches the sewer, the average sanitary discharge is given by
`Q_(DWF)=(0.8**60000**0.280)/(86400)`
`=0.1556\ m^3/s`
The peak sanitary discharge is, `=1.85**0.1556=0.28778\ m^3/s`
Now,
`T_c=T_e+T_f=5+20=25\ m i n`
Where, `T_c` is the time of concentration
`T_e` is the time of entry.
`T_f` is the time of flow.
The quantity of storm water will be maximum when storm duration is equal to the time of concentration.
Thus, t=T_c=25\ mi n`
Now, the intensty of rainfall is,
`i=1020/(t+20)`
`=1020/(45)=22.67\ ( m m)/(hr)`
Again, the storm discharge is given by,
`Q_(W W F)=(CiA)/360`
`=(0.5**22.67**250)/360`
`=7.8715\ m^3/s`
Therefore, the combined discharge is,
`Q=0.28778+7.8715=8.1593\ m^3/s`
Now, 8.1593=(pi d^2)/4**3.2`
or, `d=1.801\ m`
Adopting commercially available size `d=1.85\ m`
