: Example 16.8. A storage reservoir is situated al a distance of 6 km froma city of 3 lakh population. The total loss of head from the source to the city is not to exceed 20 m. Taking the daily demand | of 200 litresicapita/ day, pumping is to be done for 12 hours only, determine the size of supply main by(a) Darcy-Weisbach formula taking coefficient of friction as 0.015 (b) Hazen- Willams formula, taking C = 130. Assume minor losses equal to 10V?/2g. Solution: Max. demand= 300000-x 200 = 60 x 10° litres/day Since puming is to be done only for 12 hours a day, _ {60 x 10° ee - = (Ox) 107° = 1.389 cumecs.
