Main Pipe
A "water-service" pipe extends from a potable water source to the interior of a building. Inside the building the "water-service" pipe becomes a "water-distribution" pipe.1 A water service pipe must be rated for the pressure produced by the water source and in the service line by pumps or static differences. it is common to rate water service lines for more than 160 psi (11 bar) and temperatures below approx. 75oF (25oF)
Commonly used materials in water service pipe lines are Cast iron pipe (ductile pipe) - used in large water mains PE - Polyethylene PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride PB - Polybutylene Asbestos cement pipe
After asking mechanical and civil engineers in Qatar. We decided to us PVC due to inexpensive price also, it is recommended to be used with diameters less than 10 inches.2 PVC Hazen-Williams Factor Poisson's Ratio @ 73F PVC schedule 40 minimum thickness for 6in pipe PVC schedule 40 maximum water pressure for 6in pipe3 PVC schedule 80 minimum thickness for 6in pipe PVC schedule 80 maximum water pressure for 6in pipe3 Modulus of elasticity of PVC (Ep)
Water Hammer
In our project the longitudinal stress in the main pipe is neglected So ( k= ( (5/4 ) - ) = 1 ) and the equation to find the composite elasticity Ec will be : 1/Ec = (1/Eb) + (D/Ep* e)
For PVC with diameter of 6 in. (150 mm) we start our assumption to find the thickness to be used (from the standard thicknesses) as well as the type of pipe that will carry the pressure without failure.
Try schedule 40: Minimum thickness e = 7.11 mm, Ep = 2.83 GPa, Pipe maximum pressure = 1240 kPa Using the water hammer equation to find the pressure rise P: P = C Vo 1/Ec = (1/Eb) + (D/Ep* e) = (1/2.15E9) + (0.15/2.83E9 * 0.00711) Ec = 126 MPa C = ( Ec/) = (1.26E8/999) = 355.5 m/s P = C Vo = ( 999 * 335.5 * 2.34 ) = 831.07 kPa P Total = ( 831.07 + (45.7 * 9.81) ) = 1279.389 kPa P Total = 1279.389 > 1240 kPa So we have to choose another schedule to satisfy our case.
Try schedule 80: Minimum thickness = 11 mm, Ep = 2.83 GPa, pressure capacity = 1930 kPa
1/Ec = (1/Eb) + (D/Ep* e) = (1/2.15E9) + (0.15/2.83E9 * .011) Ec = 190 MPa C = ( Ec/) = (1.9E8/999) = 435.263 m/s P = C Vo = ( 999 * 435.263 * 2.34 ) = 1017.5 kPa P Total = ( 1017.5 + (45.7 * 9.81) ) = 1554.104 kPa P Total = 1554.104 < 1930 kPa Thats mean schedule 80 is satisfy or case Then use for pipe PVC 6 in. schedule 80 with wall thickness 11mm
Design Procedure:
1- Finding the total energy at Junction J. using energy equation between free surface at the reservoir and junction J considering friction losses and Gate valve minor losses. 2- Selection of pipe diameter for the inner network pipes. 3- Using Excel file to apply Hardy-Cross method for each loop. Using WaterGEMS to get first assumptions. 4- Checking over each junctions to make sure that conservation of mass satisfied. 5- Using WaterGEMS to check the results and the satisfaction of design criteria.

To find check over the total static head at each building and to find the flow at each pipe with high accuracy we used WaterGEMS. And the result is shown in the following tables:

Figure 11-3: Minimize Maximum Difference where Wnh and Wnf represent a normalized weighting factor for observed hydraulic grades and flows respectively. They are given as:
The weighting factors may also take many other forms, such as no weight (equal to 1), linear, square, square root and log functions. Other variables include: Hobsnh designates the nh-th observed hydraulic grade. Hsimnh is the nh-th model simulated hydraulic grade. Fobsnf is the observed flow. Fsimnf is the model simulated flow. Hpnt notes the hydraulic head per fitness point. Fpnt is the flow per fitness point. NH is the number of observed hydraulic grades. NF is the number of observed pipe discharges.
Results
There are two ways to look into the project using Darwin Designer. That are both satisfy the criteria of design and more accurately. I. II. Either to look to each pipe by its self to satisfy the required demand and total static head at each building. Using nominal diameters.6 Looking into two groups of pipes that will satisfy the design criteria. This look is more preferred from engineering point of view to reduce minor losses and to be easier construction wise.7
