Sump Pit Calculation

The document outlines the calculations for a sump pit, detailing inflow and outflow rates, effective sump depth, and pump cut-in levels. It includes formulas for determining the time for duty pump start and stop, as well as the maximum start/stop cycles per hour. The results indicate that the maximum cycles are acceptable as they are less than 10 times per hour.

Title : Sump Pit Calculation


DH
Total Simultaneous Inflow (Qin) = 18.4 l/s
Out Flow of Pump (Qout) = 19.4 l/s
Level Between Lowest Pipe Invert &
0.1 m
Alarm Level (DH) = H
Effective Sump Depth (H) = 1.19 m
Internal Sump Cross Sectional Area (A) 4 m2
Depth to Cover Pump Suction (h1) 0.2 m
Cut-In Level of Duty Pump (h2) 0.15 m
Cut-In Level of Standby Pump (h3) 0.42 m
Difference of Alam Level & Standby Pump
0.4 m
Cut-In Level (Dh) =

1000 x 0.15 x 4
Time for Duty Pump Start =
18.4

= 32.6087 sec.

1000 x 0.15 x 4
Time for Duty Pump Stop =
1

= 600 sec.

For Max. Start/Stop Cycle Per Hour of 3600


One Pump = 32.6087 + 600

= 5.69072 & 2.84536 (for 2 Pump)

For Max. Start/Stop Cycle Per Hour is Less Than 10 Times, Therefore, It is Acceptable
Qout

High Level Alam


Dh
Standby Pump Start

h3 Duty Pump Start

h2 Pump Stop
h1

Use Equation 1000xh2xA/Qin

Use Equation 1000xh2xA/Qout-Qin
