CALCULATIONS FOR HEAD LOSS USING HAZEN WILLIAM

EQUATION

 Maximum daily demand = MDD = 300 m3/day

= 0.00347 m3/sec
 Roughness Coefficient = C = 130
 Depth = D = 10 m

Using Hazen William equation,

H L=0.1347 m

 Factor of safety = FOS = 10 ft = 3.048 m

 Losses in pumping chamber = 10 ft = 3.048 m
 Depth of W/T from ground surface = 30 m
 Height of storage tank from the ground surface = 20 m
 Total head loss = HL = 0.1247 + 3(3.048) + 30 + 20

= 59.2687 m ≈ 60 m

STORAGE DESIGN

 Depth of water tank = 10 ft

 Minimum level of water in tank = 0 m
 Initial level of water in tank = 1 m = 3 ft
 Maximum level of water in tank = 3 m = 8 ft
 Time factor = 12 hrs
 Demand = 25% of MDD

= 0.25 (1032)

= 258.308 m3/day

Volume of tank = OHT * Time

= (258.308) (0.5)

= 129.154 m3

Area = volume/depth in m

= 129.154/3.0488

= 80 m2

Since,

π 2
Area = d

80= π/4 d2

d = 10.0 m ( diameter of over head tank)
