Date = 5/5/2021

Basic input Data

Length of HRT = 3600.00 m 3.25 m
Diameter of HRT = 3.40 m
Cross-sectional area of HRT = 9.08 m2
Net Head = 455.02 m
Design Discharge = 1.93 m3/s
Factor of Safety = 1.60 Surge Shaft

Design outputs
Flow velocity in HRT = 0.21 m/s
Wetted Parameter = 10.68 m
Mean Hydraulic Radius = 0.85 m
Resistence factor of Tunnel = 0.708
Area of Surge shaft = 5.17 m2
Area of surge shaft (provd) = 8.27 m2
Diameter of surge shaft = 3.25 m
Radius of surge shaft = 1.625 m ∆Z= ∆Q√∑Lt/At OR
Height of up surge (Dz) = 5.00 m √g*As
Height of up surge (ymax) = 5.00 m
(Above static level)
Converting Shaft in to Tank
Height above tunnel = 332 m
Volume of water in shaft = 2788 m3 12 m
Surge tank desired hight = 25 m
Corresponding area of S.Tank = 112 m2
Diameter of Surge Tank = 12 m
