 Procedures to be followed inorder to size a water supply pipe
1 Make a diagrama of the pipeline system to be considered
2 number the pipes begning at the point of least head numbering the main pipe run first then the branch pipes
3 Make a table to show the loading uits and flow rates for each stages of the main run.
calculate and enter loading units and flow rates.
4 Calculate design flow rate at each flow level by using sheet 2
5 Make an assumption of the pipe sizes.
6 work out frictional resistance per meter
7 Determine the velocity of the flow
8 measure length of the pipe under consideration
9 Consider frictional resistance in fittings( equivalent pipe length)
10 Add column g and column h to find effective pipe length
11 Inorder to find the total head consumed the head loss per meter run should be multiplied by the effective pipe
12 The progressive head is the cumulative of column J.
13 Record avilable head at point of delivery. Available head is the elevation difference between the two considered
14 Compare progressive head with avilable head to confirm pipe diameter or not. If for any pipe it is found that the
size gives a progressive head that is in excess of the avilable head or is noticeably low, it will be necessary to rep
sizing operation using a revised assumed pipe diameter. ( if the residual head is less than 2 the assumption sho
