Where q is the abstraction rate in m3 per day, and RO is the radius of influence of the well, which

1. A 54 hectare drainage basin containing 26hecare of residential area,with an aveage of 8 dwelling
units per hectare with 4 residents each,20hectare parcel zoned commercial area and 8 hectare open
area.

Waste water generation data

Residential = 120L/resident/day

Commercial = 16200L/hec/day

PeakI & I allowance = 9000L/hectare/day

Instructor: Zerihun Alemayehu 16
Water Supply and urban Drainage Assignments

For the waste water flow data given above determine

a) The average daily flow (ADF) from residential and commercial area.

b) The peak design flow(PDF)for a sewer serving this area taking peaking factor of 4

c) The diameter of the sewer for the above PDF if the ground slope is 1

Given: A tot =54ha, ACommercial=26ha, open area = 8ha

Aresidential=26ha, with an average of 8dwellings units per hectare with 4 residents each

Waste water generation data: Resident = 120l/resident/day, Commercial = 16200l/ha/day,

Peak I & I allowance = 9000l/ha/day,

Solution:

a) ADF of residential area = 26ha*8Du/ha *4res/Du *120l/res/day =99840l/day = 99.84m3/day ADF of

Commercial area = 20ha*16200l/ha/day=324,000l/day = 324m3/day

ADF from Res. &Comm. area = 99.84 + 324 = 423.84 m3/day

b) PDF = PF*ADF +allowance = 4*423.84 + 9*54 =2181.36 m3/day = 0.02525 m3/sec =1.515 m3/min

c) Enter the monograph with Q = 1.515 m3/min and s = 0.01

I read D =179mm  take standard diameter of 150mm,but to have a capacity of 1.515 m3/min ,the slope
has to be steepest i.e. s =0.03

Therefore select larger diameter D = 200mm at s =0.01, Qf =2 m3/min and Vf = 1.07m/sec

 With q/ Qf =1.515/2 = 75.75%, From partial flow diagram,d/D =65% = 0.65

 d = D*0.65 = 200*0.65 = 130mm of depth of flow

 With d/D =65% = 0.65, from partial flow diagram, v/Vf = 110% = 1.1

 v = 1.1* Vf =1.1*1.07 = 1.177m/sec. > Vmin = 0.6m/sec  no problem of sedimentation

Therefore, select D =200m, for slope = 0.01 =1%

2. Using the rational method, compute the design flow and required pipe diameter for the outfall
sewer shown in the figure for a 5-year storm. Take i = 1500/ (t+15) where t is in min. and i in mm/hr

Therefore, design flow of out fall sewer is Q = 36.55m3/min.

Enter the monograph with Q = 36.55 m3/min and s = 0.005

I read D =685mm  take standard diameter of 700mm,but to have a capacity of 1.515 m3/min ,the slope has to be
steepest i.e. s =0.0041

Therefore select larger diameter D = 700mm at s =0.004, Qf =40 m3/min and Vf = 1.71m/sec

 With q/ Qf =36.55/40 = 98.82%, From partial flow diagram,d/D =74.6% = 0.746

 d = D*0.746 = 700*0.746 = 522.2mm of depth of flow

 With d/D =74.6% = 0.746, from partial flow diagram, v/Vf = 112.5% = 1.125

 v = 1.125* Vf =1.71*1.71 = 1.92m/sec. > Vmin = 0.6m/sec  no problem of sedimentation

Therefore, select D =200mm, slope s = 0.005

Required; Sketch the profile of street and sewer

Solution:

Reach 1
Q = 40l/sec = 2.4m3/min S = (350 - 347.87)/80 = 0.026625

Enter the monograph with Q = 2.4 m3/min and s = 0.026625

I read D =179mm  take standard diameter of 200mm,but to have a capacity of 2.4 m3/min ,the slope has to be
gentle i.e. s =0.0135

Therefore select larger diameter D = 700mm at s =0.004, Qf =40 m3/min and Vf = 1.71m/sec

If s =0.0135, the rise in height = 0.0135*80 = 1.08m

Difference in ground elevation between two manhole = 350 – 347.87 = 2.13m

Cover = 2.13 – 1.08 = 1.05m < min.cover = 2m not OK!

Therefore with min.cover=2m, fix s =0.0275 and D= 200mm

Enter the monograph with s = 0.0275 and D = 200mm Qf =3.65m3/min and Vf = 1.80m/sec

 With q/ Qf =2.4/3.65 = 65.75%, From partial flow diagram, d/D =58.5% = 0.585

 d = D*0.585 = 200*0.585 = 117mm of depth of flow

 With d/D =58.5% = 0.585, from partial flow diagram, v/Vf = 106.5% = 1.065

 v = 1.065* Vf =1.71*1.80 = 1.92m/sec. > Vmin = 0.6m/sec  no problem of sedimentation

Therefore, select D =200mm, slope s = 0.005

Invert Elevation
Manhole 1

Invert Elev. = ground elev. – Cover – pipe diameter

= 350.0 – 2 – 0.2 = 347.8m

Manhole 1

Invert Elev. = Invert pipe Elev.at MH 1 – fall of sewer

= 347.8 – (0.0275*80) = 345.6m

Reach 2
Q = 80l/sec = 4.8m3/min S = (347.87 - 347.00)/100 = 0.0087

Enter the monograph with Q = 4.8 m3/min and s = 0.0087

Water Supply and urban Drainage Assignments

I read D =440mm and V = 0.54m/sec,

 Cover = 347.87 - 347.00= 0.87m < min.cover = 2m not OK! And

V=1.92m/sec. > Vmin = 0.6m/sec  problem of sedimentation

Therefore, to get min cover =2m and to resolve problem of sedimentation use D=450mm and S =0.008

 Enter the monograph with s = 0.0275 m3/min and D = 450mm Qf =15m3/min and Vf = 1.62m/sec

 With q/ Qf =4.8/15 = 32%, From partial flow diagram, d/D =40% = 0.4

 d = D*0.4 = 450*0.4 = 180mm of depth of flow

 With d/D =40% = 0.4, from partial flow diagram, v/Vf = 90% = 0.90

 v = 0.90* Vf = 0.9*1.62 = 1.46m/sec. > Vmin = 0.6m/sec  no problem of sedimentation

Therefore, select D =450mm, slope s = 0.008

Invert Elevation
Since, size of pipe of reach 1 and reach 2 are different.Therefore, the crown of reach 1 should be at the
same elevation with the pipe crown elevation of reach 2.

Crown elev.at reach 1 pipe = invert Elev.of reach 1 pipe + pipe diameter

= 345.6 + 0.2 = 345.8m

Manhole 2

Invert Elev. = Crown elev.at reach 1 pipe – pipe diameter

= 345.8 – 0.45 = 345.35m

Manhole 3

Invert Elev. = Invert Elev.at MH 2 – fall of sewer

= 345.35 – (0.008*100) = 344.55m

Check min.cover = Ground elev.at MH3 – crown Elev.at MH3 347 – (344.55+0.45) =2m  OK!

4. Given: 100 person per hectare, Sewage contribution per capita = 375L/d,

Infiltration component =2270 L/ha/d, Minimum diameter = 200mm, n = 0.013

Required: Design the sewer system

Solution: refer figure on the question paper for manhole locations, area and street elevations data

Assumptions
o Per hectare flow is the same

o Cumulative water shed area enter upstream manhole is 35ha

PF  15.05Q 0.167
o Peak factor is calculated using the formula

Residential flow = 100 * 375 =37500 L/ha/d

Infiltration = 2270 L/ha/d

DWF = 37500 + 2270 = 39770 L/ha/d

PF  15.05Q 0.167  15.05 * 39770 0.167  2.57

PWF = 2.57*39770 = 102208.9 L/ha/d= 0.07098m3/min/ha

See Table 4 -1 for Calculation of Sewage Flows and

See Table 4 - 2 for Calculation of Pipe sizes and Velocities

Remarks:

o The pipe sizes which I read it from the monograph (column 7, Table 4- 2) are modified to the next largest
standard pipe size or to a size that accommodates the design flow at a desired depth. These selected sizes
are entered in column 9 of Table 4- 2.

o Note that: For the range of pipe sizes encountered in this problem, a desirable depth of flow is normally
from about half to three-fourths full. Many of the 200mm.minimum diameter pipes, because of the low

flows carried, have the design flow depth that are less than half the maximum depth. this can not be
avoided and does not create a problem as long as cleansing velocities are maintained (all velocities are
greater than 0.6m/sec)

5. Given: 10-yr frequency rainfall, i = 180mm/hr, length of Mh 9 to Mh 10 = 55m,

The rest are measured accordingly

Required: Design a storm drainage system to carry flows from the eight inlet area given in the fig.4

Solution: Refer figure on the question paper

Assumptions

o Assume a 5min.inlet time

o By assumptions clay soil to be predominant in the area, Appropriate c value are assumed

o Street slope is assumed

Remarks:

o Beginning at the upstream end of the system, compute the discharge to be carried by each successive
length of pipe, moving downstream. These calculations are summarized in Table 5-2.

o Note that: at each point down stream where a new flow is introduced, a new time of concentration must
be determined as well as new values of c and drainage area size. As the upstream inlet areas are combined
to produce a larger tributary area at some design point, a revised C values representing these combined
areas must be obtained.

For example, in the computation of the flow to be carried by the pipe from M-9 to M-8, the tributary area is A
+ B + c = 6.46ha, and the composite value of C will be

C
Ca i i

0.37 * 1.93  0.42 * 1.34  0.38 * 3.19
 0.38
a i 6.46

o At the design location the value of tC will be equal to the inlet time at I-8 plus the pipe flow time from I-8
to M-9(see table 5-2).

o Using the computed discharge values, select tentative pipe sizes(from Manning Monograph) for the
approximate slopes given in column 8 of Table 5-2.Once the pipe sizes are known, the flow velocities
between input locations can be determined.Normally,these velocities are approximated by computing the
full-flow velocities for maximum discharge at the specified grade.

o These velocities are then used to compute channel flow time for estimating the time of concentration by
using the formula
