Design of sewer system

Design Criteria Consideration


(1) Design Flow
(a) Sanitary Sewer
Q design= Peak sewage flow + Infiltration
(b) Partially Combined Sewer
Q design= Peak sewage flow +Storm flow+ Infiltration
WASA Criteria (Peak sewage flow = Storm flow)
Q design= 2 x Peak sewage flow + Infiltration
Design Criteria Consideration
(2) Design Equation
Manning’s formula is used for sewer flowing under gravity

𝟐 𝟏
𝟏
V = . R 𝟑. S 𝟐
𝒏

V = velocity of flow m/sec


R = Hydraulics mean depth = Area/Perimeter
= D/4 (Circular Sewer)
S= Slope of sewer
n= coefficient of roughness for pipe (0.013-0.015)
Design Criteria Consideration
(3)Minimum Self cleansing velocity
• Sanitary sewer = 0.6m/s
• Storm sewer= 1m/s
• Partially combined = 0.7m/s
(4)Minimum Sewer Size
• 225mm for lateral WASA
Commerically available diameter of Sewer in mm
Numerical
1. Design a sanitary sewer to serve a population of
7000 persons. The per capita water consumption is
400 lpcd. Adopt suitable design criteria
Numerical
2.Calculate the size and flow of a separate trunk
sewer serving a population of 0.2 million and having a
per person water consumption rate of 400 liter per
capita per day.
Note:
• Value of n =0.013 may be used
• Take infiltration as 10 % of average sewage flow.
Numerical
3. Design a sewer for a maximum discharge of 650
L/sec. Consider manning’s roughness coefficient of
0.013, the gradient of sewer is equal to 0.0001.
Numerical
4. A sewer pipe is serving an estimated population of
35000 persons. If the average water consumption of
area is 350 liters per capita per day. Design the
sanitary sewer that will avoid the solid deposition and
should also be able to handle the peak sewage flow.
Use design Criteria
Numerical
5. Calculate the size and slope of an partially
combined sewer serving a population of 15000
persons. How many extra persons can serve if the
slope is doubled. The per capita water
consumption is 400 Lpcd.
Sewers Flowing Partially Full
• It is necessary to determine velocity and depth of
sewage in a pipe when it is flowing only partially
full.
• For this , use of graph will allow quick computation
of the hydraulic elements of partially flow circular
sewer.
Sewers Flowing Partially Full

• For using this graph , it is necessary to calculate the hydraulics elements or design
parameters when a sewer is flowing full.
• Then by calculating the ratio of any two known hydraulic elements partially flow
sewers elements can be calculated
Significance of partial flow study
Conditions during partial flow, must frequently
determined in combined/ partially combined sewers
due to following reasons:
1. To investigate velocities during dry weather flow to
eliminate possibilities of deposits occurring in
pipes.
2. Knowledge of depth of flow is of value in designing
sewer intersections. Large sewers should be
brought together at elevations so that water may
not back up into the other.
Numerical
6. A 600mm circular combined sewer is laid on a slope
of 0.0021 and it is flow full with n=0.013.What will be
the velocity and depth of flow when sewer is carrying
0.054m3/sec discharge.
