Water is to be supplied to the inhabitants of a college hostel
through a supply main. The following data are given :
Distance of the reservoir from the hostel = 4000 m.
Number of inhabitants = 3000. consumption of water per day
%3D
of each inhabitant =
180 litre, loss of head due to
friction = 18 m, coefficient of friction for the pipe f = 0.007 if
%3D
the half of the daily supply is pumped in 8 hrs, determine the
size of the supply main.
