Solution: Data : Population : 1$0^5$, Overflow rate=25m/day
Tank depth=3.2 m.
Assume the rate of water supply to be 200 lit/hr/day
Daily Demand=rate of water supplypopulation=2001$0^5$=2*1$0^7$lit/day=$\frac{2*10^7}{24}$ =833.33$m^3$/hr
Overflow rate=$\frac{Q}{A}$=25m/day=$\frac{25}{24}$m/hr
here, $\frac{Q}{A}$=$\frac{25*100}{24*60*60}$=$V_s$=$\frac{25}{24*36}$=0.028cm/sec
3.Detention time=$\frac{Depth of tank}{overflow rate}$=$\frac{3.2}{25/24}$=3.072 hrs
4.Capacity of the tank = Hourly DischargeD.T=833.333.072=2560$m^3$
5.Surface area of the tank =$\frac{capacity}{depth}$=$\frac{2560}{3.2}$=800$m^2$
Providing two units, surface area of one unit=400$m^2$
- Tank dimensions: Let length of tank=4*width ∴ L=4B
Surface of the tank, A=LB=4BB=4$B^2$
4$B^2$=400
$B^2$=100
∴B=10m
L=4*B=40m
Provide 2 each Of size 40 m 10 3.5 (assuming free board=0.3m)
