Problem 1: A new building site is very flat and, to avoid excessive excava- tion and possibly the need to pump, the sewers are to be designed for the minimum grades possible while still achieving a self- cleansing velocity of 0.65 m/s at peak flow. At the beginning of the development the flow is estimated to be 10 1/s at daily peak and, in the future, this will rise to 40 1/s. Assume k, 0.6 mm and determine an acceptable pipe size and grade. %3D

The sewage from an area of 400 acres is to be carried by a circular sewer at a velocity not less than 2.5 fps. Manning’s n = 0.013. The population density is 16 persons per acre. Find the maximum hourly and minimum hourly flows. Determine the pipe size required to handle these flows and the required slope. Assume typical per capita sewage quantities and typical peak factors for the determination of maximum and minimum hourly sewage flows.

b.) Estimate the peak runoff flow rate observed in the combined sewer system in cfs generated only from storm water.
A municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) receives a flow of 5.0 MGD. The WWTP does not have an equalization basin and therefore can have a peak hour flow that is 2.5 times the average daily flow. The WWTP has two circular, upflow clarifiers operating in parallel. The clarifiers must be designed to meet the following conditions: 1,000 gpd/ft (maximum) Average overflow rate = Peak overflow rate = 2,500 gpd/ft° (maximum) Basin depth = 10 ft What is the diameter of each primary clarifier? Hint: calculate the diameter for each a. of the given conditions, and select your diameter based on your results.
