Water Supply and Urban Drainage (Ceng-3171)

Mini Project [15%]

The population of Addis Ababa city was estimated to be 5 million in 2010 and 2 decades earlier
than that population in the city was 4.2 million. Due to the city cannot supply enough amount
of water to the people; the Addis Ababa City Administration Office want to expand the water
supply projects for 1/20th of its population with the design period of 2050.

Water is to be withdrawn from a canal near the city that runs for 16 hours a day with the depth
of 2 m. The average consumption per person to be within the design year is 110 l/day. Assume
the velocity through the screens and bell mouth are less than 16 cm/sec and 32 cm/sec
respectively. According to the given data, design the bell mouth inlet for canal intake and
calculate the head loss in the intake conduit if the treatment work is away 2.8 Km. Draw the
neat sketch of the canal. Assume any necessary data if required.

Rules:

1. Write your every findings and report in a clear and neat format
2. No cheating if the answer of two or more groups are the same, both of you will get ZERO
3. Sketch of your design need to be using Auto-CAD (if possible)
4. Assume any necessary data

Hint (Required): Execute these tasks one at a time accordingly

1. Forecast the population of the City with the correct method and reason out why
2. Determine water demand.
3. Design coarse screen
4. Design bell mouth entry
5. Design intake conduit
6. Calculate the head loss using Hazen-Williams and Darcy Weisbach equation
7. Draw your design with free hand sketch showing with all the necessary dimensions of
the intake
