volume of Pumps in the field (Qin m3/s)


No Power of Pumps Water volume in the field Water volume (m3/s)
1 37Kw 176 L/s 0.176 m3/s
2 75Kw 738 L/s 0.738 m3/s
3 150Kw 630 L/s 0.630 m3/s
4 110Kw 1116 m3/h 0.310 m3/s
5 250Kw 650 m3/h 0.181 m3/s
6 410Kw 10000 m3/h 2.778 m3/s
Remark: Irrigation water in dry season is discharging as usual (full scale of pumps) but Irrigation
water in wet season discharge 70-80 percent of dry (in the pumps) because in wet season is
rainy and the soil is saturated that is the reason, the irrigation water demand is not high in wet
season. Example: Electrick Pump:75kw *4 (Veunkham Village)/ 4: quantity of Pumps

Solution: => Qin (dry) = 0.738 m3/s * 4 = 2.952 m3/s


=> Qin (wet) = 70*2.952/100 = 2.066m3/s
