1) Pump capacity required considering filter backwash. Unit

No. of Filter bed provided = 14 Nos.
Length of Filter bed = 10.5 m
Width of Filter bed = 8 m
Area of Filter bed = 84 m2
Backwash rate = 600 Liter/min/Sqm
Assuming Backwash Duration = 10 min
backwash Water Generated for backwashing one filter bed = 504000 Liters
= 504 cum
No. of Filter Backwash in one day = 14 Nos.
Backwash interval for Two consicative filter Backwash = 102.857 Munits
Discharge of Drain Pump Required to empty the sump for next
= 4.9 m3/min
backwash
= 294 m3/hrs…………….I
2) Pump capacity required considering Clarifier sludge Drain.
Diameter of Clarifier = 58.5 m
Side water depth 3.15 m
Volume of Clarifier = 8462 cum
Volume of sludge to be drain 2% of volume = 169.2 cum
Time allowed for clarifier drain in single withdrawl = 30 min
Capacity of Drain Pump Required = 338.49 cum/hr
Capacity of drain pump required = 340 m3/h……………… II

From…... 1 and 2
Capacity of drain pump required Max. from (1) and (2) = 340 m3/h

Hence offered Capacity of drain pump = 340 m3/h

Type of Pump = Submersible
Invert level of drain sump = 7 m
Discharge level/disposal level of Sludge = 13 m
Static Head required = 6 m
Assume loosed 15% = 0.9 m
Provide operating head = 7 m
Pump & motor combined efficiency considered = 0.63

Pump Bhp
where
P h(kW) = hydraulic power (kW)
q = flow capacity (m 3 /h) = 340 m3/h
p = density of fluid (kg/m 3 ) = 1001 kg/m3
g = gravity (m/s 2 ) = 9.81 m/s2
h = differential head (m) = 6.9 m
P h(kW) = q p g h / (3.6 10 6 ) (1) = 10.41 kW
Power in Bhp = 13.95 Bhp
