Water Scenario
Water is a precious natural resource
On a global scale, total quantity of water available is about 1600 million cubic km.
The hydrological cycle moves enormous quantities of water about the globe. However,
much of the world's water has little potential for human use.

Estimating per Capita Water Demand
*lcpd- Litre per Capita per Day According to National Water Policy 2002 in the
planning and operation of Water Distribution
Domestic need 100 lcpd systems, water allocation priorities should be
Institutional need 20 lcpd broadly as:
Drinking water
Industrial need 30 lcpd
Irrigation
Fire demand 15 lcpd Hydropower
Water unaccounted for 35 lcpd Ecology agro-industries

Aquifer
A layer of soil or rock in which water
can move relatively freely
Wells
Dug Well
Intake of Water
Infiltration Galleries
When ground water exists in large volume just
below the ground level, long galleries are made
Darcy’s law
Q = [(H2 –h2)x K] / 2L
H
Q = Total Discharge of water
H = Static Water Level
h = Depth of water while pumping
L = Distance of influence zone
K = Coefficient of Permiability
River Intakes
The inlets are operated as per
• Requirement of water quantity
• The condition of water level in the source.

Street plan , topography and location of supply work and distribution storage establish
the type of distribution system and character of the flow through it.
S = Hydraulic gradient
Ring System
Radial System
Main
Sub Main
Minor Distributor
Advantages
Relatively cheap
Easy to design
Disadvantages
x At dead end water
becomes stagnant that
cause sedimentation and
water quality
deterioration
x Supply line has to be cut
off to a large area during
repair of an important
area
Dead End System
Main
Sub Main
Advantages
Stagnation of water is
avoided
During repair works a
district may be supplied
with water by other mains
or sub-mains
Disadvantages
x Costly construction
x Pipe length required is
being higher
x More number of valves
required
x Design of distribution
Grid Iron System network is complicated
Main
Sub Main
Advantages
Effectively increase the
efficiency of main supply
Each sub main is
connected with two
mains.
Disadvantages
x Length of the main pipe
line is higher compare to
others.
Ring System
Distribution Reservoir
Advantages
Water supply by both
direct pumping and
indirect method.
Radial System
Advantages
Repairs can be made and new
services laid without
interfering with traffic or
damaging the pavement
Disadvantages
x Costly Construction
