4. Calculate the requisite size of a combined circular sewer serving an area of 200 ha with a
population of 100000 and supplied with water at 200 lpcd. Take time of entry and time of
flow of rainwater to be 5 and 15 minutes, respectively. The run-off coefficient is 0.45.
Permissible maximum velocity in the sewer is 3 m/sec. Calculate pipe diameters for
separate sewers also.
[tc=20min, I = 84mm/hr, Qstorm=21m3/s, Qsewage=0.2 m3/s; at 2m/s A = 10.6m2=>Dia for
combined sewer =3.67m=>Provide 4m dia or equivalent sewer. Separate: 4m dia + 350mm
dia for sewage]
5.
Given the drainage area in figure, calculate the discharge at the outfall using the
rational method. Assume flow velocity at 0.9 m/s and I mm/hr=3276.5/(t+19), t is in min.
R=0.5, A=1 ha, ti=7min R=0.4, A=2ha, ti=5min L=200m R=0.7, A=3ha, ti=4min L=200m
Assume 1m/s velocity, tf=6min, tc=16min, I =93.6 mm/hr, Q=0.473 m3/s, => 0.78m dia at outlet
=>Provide 800mm dia =>V=1.17m/s at s=0.002. OK
