Water Supply System Design

Water Supply System Design

In this course I would like to teach you simple method of Water Supply System design. After this course you will be able to confidently use excel sheets in design of accurate and economic Water Supply Networks.

The course consists of 5 sections:

Section 1: Introduction about Water Supply System, and about the structures and components of the course.

Section 2: Water Demand Forecasting

Section 3: Hydraulic Losses includes:

3.1 Bernoulli Equation

3.2 Friction Losses

3.2.1 Friction losses (hf) from Darcy–Weisbach

3.2.2 Friction losses (hf) from Hazen–Williams & Manning

3.2.3 Friction factors

3.2.4 Example of Friction losses (hf) by Darcy–Weisbach

3.2.5 Example of Friction losses (hf) by Hazen–Williams & Manning

3.3 Minor losses

3.4 Example of hydraulic losses calculation (Friction losses & Minor losses)

3.5 Example of required pressure calculation in water supply system

Section 4: Maximum pipe capacity & Optimal diameter includes:

4.1 Maximum pipe capacity and example by Excel sheet

4.2 Optimal diameter and example by Excel sheet

Section 5: Water Supply Network Design includes:

5.1 Branched Network Design and example by Excel sheet

5.2 Looped Network Design and example by Excel sheet

In this course the excel sheet will be used in the design, because excel sheet simplify the calculation due to the relationships between the cells are by equations so when you change any value, all calculations of design will be automatically changed. You can use the same excel sheet of design, just you have to insert your input data and you will get the results, but just you have to check the results and change the inputs if you need.
