INTRODUCTION
Water distribution networks are the
most important part in the distribution of water
and purpose of these networks is the
distribution of water in the city for normal
consumption and distribution of water under
certain pressure. The purpose of distribution
system is to deliver water to consumer with
appropriate quantity and pressure. Distribution
system is used to describe collectively the
facilities used to supply water from its source
to the point of usage.

Objectives of Project
Water distribution network and review of
sources & quantity of water
Details of overhead tank and sump of
Mehsana city.
Methods of water distribution system in
Mehsana city.
Calculation of Population and water
requirement in future.
Fire demand

Scope

l. It should convey the treated water up to

the consumers with the same degree of
purity.
2. Sufficient quantity of treated water
should reach for the domestic and industrial
use.
3. It should be economical and easy to
maintain and use.
4. It should be able to transport sufficient
quantity of water during emergency.
5. During repair work, it should not cause
obstruction to the traffic.

CONTI

6. It should be safe against any

future pollution.
7. The quantity of pipes laid should
be good and it should not trust.
8. It should be water tight and the
water losses due to leakage should
be minimum as for as possible.

Source and quantity of water

distribution in Mehsana city

1)Narmada water treatment plant (WTP)

2)Bore
well
On an average, MMC draws 26 MLD from Narmada
canal and 6 MLD from bore well capable of
transmitting of total 30 MLD of discharge in
Mehsana
city
The average per capita water supply is around 110
lpcd with a daily supply for 45 minutes twice a day
Tube wells are an alternate source of water supply
in MMC. Depending upon the area served, the tube
wells work from 1 to 18 hours every day. Based on
the capacity of pumps and working hours, the water
supplied is believed to be 06 MLD from about 30
tube wells.

Layout Of Water Distribution Network system In

1. Highway Feeder Zone - The zone is

being supplied water through 13
existing tube wells.
2. City Feeder Zone - Water supply
need to the zone is fulfilled by 17
existing tube wells.
The average per capita water supply is
around 140 lpcd with a daily supply
around one to two hours, depending on
the availability of ground water during
different seasons.

Water Demand
For Rural Area : 70 liters/capita/day
For Urban Area : 1. With Drainage Facility140 liters/capita/day

Using equation ,
Pn = P + nI
Where,
Pn = Future Population after n decade
P = Present Population
n = Number of decade
I =Average Increase in Population
Now For 2020,

P = 1,65,696
n=1
I = 21,783
Putting this values in equation 1 we get,
Therefore
Pn = 1,65,696 + (1) (21,783)
Pn = 1,87,479
Similarly we get,

Calculation of Water supply

Mehsana city has population 165696 in 2011 and
present water supply is 18.72 MLD & for population
252828 in 2050 water should be supply 28.56 MLD
Water used in fire fighting
The water consumption is depend upon the
type of fire and which vehicle to be used.
In Mehsana city, approximately 05 cases of
fire fighting are occurred per year
4 vehicle of each vehicle having capacity of
15000 litre.

Conclusion
Till now we have gone through overview of the water
distribution system, i.e. how water is distributed to the
consumers from the intake. We know that the population
of the whole Mehsana city is increasing day by day and
so water demand in future is also increasing day by day.
To meet this demand current water distribution system is
not capable to meet future demand.
Everywhere people are increasingly with controlling the
pollution of both surface and ground water. Ground
water is the main problem, especially where cities have
to rely on their own ground water for the fresh water
provision.
