The aim of this book is to provide the reader with an understanding of the analysis and design aspects of water distribution system. The book covers the topics related to the analysis and design of water supply systems with application to sediment-transporting pipelines.
One of the first steps in water distribution systems (WDSs) design process is the pipeline routing, defined as geometrical projection of a designed network. The analogical step can also be found in designing of other elements of technical infrastructure, such as energy lines or roads.
Map your run, walk or cycle using our route planner to accurately measure distance on a map. The route will automatically follow the one best suited to your activity (running, cycling, walking or hiking). Display distance traveled in kilometers or miles.
The common analysis of pipe network often demonstrates to determine the flow rates and pressure drops in the individual components of the pipe network. Water utilities typically use specialized software to solve these issues automatically.
The water systems are designed for a predecided time horizon generally called design period. For a static population, the system can be designed either for a design period equal to the life of the pipes sharing the maximum cost of the system or for the perpetual existence of the water supply system.
(d) storm water drainage with type, size and quality of pipes, ground and invert levels and gradients and (e) all existing and proposed roads and paved surfaces.
The calculator for the calculation of pipe networks is based on the node method. For an efficient calculation, I recommend that you study the instructions in detail (10 min) and sketch the pipe network before entering data for pipes and nodes.
