Part A: Design pipeline system for a problematic topography
A small city with current permanent population of is supplied from source, with an
transfers water to tank that has a maximum elevation of The longitudinal profile of
the ground is shown in the following figure. As you can tell, there is a high elevation of
located at from the source point A Answer the following questions in the given
order.
pts Based just on the morphology of the terrain ie not accounting the hydraulics do you have gravity or pumping driven network? Why?
pts Based only on the elevations of the source and tank what is the carrying capacity ie flow rate of the pipeline that connects the source with the tank T Give your answer
either in or cfs
pts Find the available pressure head ie term in the pipe at location where you
have a high elevation point. Give your answer in meters.
pts Based on your findings in question prove that the water supply system will not work. Assume that the energy grade line can be located up to below the ground
surface elevation of point A
pts Determine the actual maximum daily flow rate that the pipeline can carry
considering the hydraulic requirement of the for the energy grade line specified in
question Hint: Show on the sketch the "updated" energy grade line.
