DESANDER OVERFLOW DESIGN

 DESIGN OF DESANDER FLUSHING
Qf = 0.20Qd
Qf = inflow volume of submerged orifice (m3/s) Qf = 0.696 m3/s
Qf = Ai x Cv x Ca x (2xgxH)^0.5 Assume V= 3 m/s
Ai = bi x (dh + hi), dh = 0.10-0.15m Areq.= 0.23 m2
Cv = coefficient of velocity = 1/(1+f) USED D= 0.5 m
f = coefficient of inflow loss AREA= 0.2 m2
Ca = 0.6 approximately Design Velocity= 3.54 m/s
INTAKE SIZE:
w= 0.6 m f= 0.5
d= 0.6 m Cv= 0.666667
Ai= 0.36 m H= 0.9 m
hi= 0.45 m
dh = 0.15 m
Qf = C x Bsp x hsp ^1.5 Assume value
Qf = 0.363 m3/s
hsp = 0.3 m Qd= C*Bsp*hsp^1.5
C= 1.8 Constant Bsp= 11.766 m
Bsp = 1.23 m say Bsp= 1.5 m
USE Bsp= 2 m
OVERFLOW SIZE:
2 x 0.3 m

DESIGN OF HEAD TANK

Vsc = As*dsc = B*L*dsc

where:
Vsc= 69.6 m3/s Head tank capacity (10 to 20 times the design discharge)
dsc= ho/2 m ,ho = height of head race
dsc= 3.6 m
B= 2 m hc= 0.697601
L= 9.667 m
say L= 29.001 m
