14.20 A square storage room is equipped with automatic sprinklers for fire protection that spray 1000galmin of water. The floor is designed to drain this flow evenly to troughs near each outside wall. The troughs are shaped as shown in Fig. P14.20. Each trough carries 250galmin, is laid on a 1-percent slope, and is formed of unfinished concrete. Determine the minimum depth h.
FIGURE P14.20 Water troughs for Problems 14.20 and 14.21.
14.21 The flow from two of the troughs described in Problem 14.20 passes into a sump, from which a round common clay drainage tile carries it to a storm sewer. Determine the size of tile required to carry the flow (500galmin) when running half full. The slope is 0.1 percent.
