distribution system
method of water distribution
Appropriate water pressure is necessary at various points in the distribution system, and each user should receive the required amount of flow
Pressure in the pipe line is required to compel the water to reach every location.
gravity system
The most dependable and cost-effective distribution system
The water head available to the consumer is only the bare minimum
Water flows in mains due to gravitational pull; there is no need for pumping
pumping system
Pumping without a storage system is sometimes known as pumping without a storage system.
Pumps with a high lift are required
dual system
The pump is connected to both the mains and the high reservoir
More dependable and cost-effective
layout of distribution system
The goal of the distribution system is to provide consumers with water of suitable quality, quantity, and pressure.
layout of distribution network
Because distribution pipes are typically installed beneath road pavements, their patterns closely resemble road layouts.
In general, there are four different types of pipe networks, each of which can be utilized individually or in combination for a specific location.
they are:
Dead End System
It's ideal for historic towns and cities with no discernible route plan.
Radial System
Different zones have been established throughout the area.
Water is pumped into the distribution reservoir, which is located in the center of each zone
Grid Iron System
It's best for towns with a rectangular layout, as water mains and branches are set out in rectangles.
Ring System
The supply main is laid all along the outskirts of town, with sub mains branching off of it.
valves
The supply main is laid all along the outskirts of town, with sub mains branching off of it
Different types of valves are:
line valves
sluice valves
globe valves
scour valves
air valves
relief valves
reflux valves
float valves
fire hydrants
