PLUMBING
Plumbing: working with plumbum or lead; a plumber is somebody who
works with plumbum. It is originally derived from Roman civilization
practice: people used lead pipes in domestic plumbing around 40 BC.
In modern practice lead is used only in seals of water pipes. The
metal gets dissolved in soft waters and causes toxicity.
USA recently enacted legislation to remove lead from all water supply
networks. Fitting water supply pipelines in buildings and premises
however continues being called plumbing.
Historical Developments
Indus Valley Civilizations at Harappa and Mohenjodaro, about 2500
BC, used copper and iron pipes in domestic water supplies.
Formal plumbing with piped water supply and flushed toilets was
introduced in India by Britons during 19th century. Most plumbing
systems therefore have influence of British design.
Some Indian architects underwent training in USA during post
independence period, which influenced plumbing designs in
multistoried buildings. India adapted UPC India 2008 from IPC, USA.

EXAMPLE

Consider a commercial steel rising main 2 in diameter, 30m long,


flowing at 2m/s.
Diameter = 2 in = 2x25.4 mm = 50.8mm = 50.8x10-3 m
Area = x(50.8x10-3 )2/4= 2.03x10-3 => Flow = 0.004 m3/s

Using Moodys diagram, e/D = 45x10 /50.8x10 = 0.000089 => f = 0.029
Using tabulated value, f = 19 x 10-3
Using Hazen Williams formula, V= 0.849 CR0.63S0.54 =>
2 = 0.849 x100x (50.8x10-3 /4)0.63S0.54 =>
S = 0.158 = hL/L = fV2/2gD
=> f = 2gDS/V2 = 2x9.81x 50.8x10-3x 0.158/22 = 0.039.
Therefore head-loss = fLV2/2gD = 0.52 m by formula; 2.29 m by
tabulated f, 3.5 m by Moodys Diagram, and 4.7 m by Hazen Williams
formula. Use conservative estimate for design => head loss = 4.7 m.

EQUIVALENT PIPE LENGTHS


It is the length of pipe that produces the known amount of head loss.
Headloss through valve or fitting = KV2/2g; K = A Coefficient
Headloss through pipe length L and diameter D = fLV2/2gD
Equating the two expressions for head loss, L = KD/f
Thus the fitting is hydraulically equivalent to L length of D diameter
pipe. Similarly f1L1V12/2gD1 = fLV2/2gD or L = (f1/f) L1(V1/V)2 (D1/D).
For example if flow velocity at 1m/s through 2 in dia steel pipe is to
increased 2m/s then dia required for the will be 2/2 = 1.4 in. Using
1 in dia pipe, velocity = 1.74 m/s and equivalent length will be L =
(f1/f) L1(V1/V)2 (D1/D) = (19/21)x1x(1/1.74)(2/1.5)= 0.7m/m length.
Manufacturers of valves and fittings express the capacity and
hydraulic characteristics in terms of flow coefficient, which is flow per
unit pressure or head loss.

PUMPING MACHINERY
Pump Capacity requires specifying the following two quantities:
Rating = flow rate (lps) e.g. 24 lpm pump
Power = h Q /
= unit weight of water, 9.81 kN/m3
h = Total pumping head, m
Q = Total flow rate, m3/s
= Pump Efficiency
Centrifugal pumps are 60 to 85% efficient.
Bernoullis equation is used to calculate total pumping head.
Total pumping head Static head difference + total head loss
Total head loss Major head loss, due to pipe friction + Minor head loss,
due to pipe fittings.
For example for 2 in diameter main at 2m/s, flow Q=0.004 m3/s. If total
lift is 30m then total head loss = major head loss 4.57m + minor head
loss, say 30% of major head loss, 1.37m = 5.94m => Power required
for pumping = 9.81 x (30+5.94) x 0.004/0.7 = 2 kW. Electric motors
are about 90 percent efficient => Electricity required = 2/0.9 = 2.3 kW.

WATER HAMMER

Pressure in pipes increases when valves are suddenly closed. It may


burst pipes and/or damage pipe fittings like valves. It is called water
hammer pressure.
This increase in the pressure (kg/cm2 ) in rigid pipes is approximately
15 times the flow velocity (m/s), i.e. 15-30 kg/cm2 (or 0.15 to 0.3
MPa) for 1-2 m/s velocity of flow.

P = Water hammer pressure, Pa;


V = Flow velocity, m/s;
D = pipe diameter, m;

K = Bulk modulus of elasticity of water = 2.2 x 106 kN/m2 =2.2 GPa
E = Modulus of elasticity of pipe = 2.1x10 10 kg/m2 for steel = 210 GPa

WATER HAMMER
Nominal water hammer pressure for 3 steel pipes in municipal water
supply is 840 kN/m2. Water hammer pressure developed in smaller
diameter pipes used in building water supply is more than this value.
Causes of Water Hammer
Sudden closure of non return valves when pumps are shut-off
automatically, and
Sudden closure of quick closing valves at ground floor under high
pressure conditions.
Water Hammer Control Measures
Installation of water hammer arresters in the riser pipes
Proper gate and check valves for prevention of sudden closures, and
Piping designs restricting water pressure to permissible limits by
vertical hydraulic zoning, pressure reducing valves, etc.

EFFECTS OF WATER HAMMER


Ruptured Check Valve due to excess
pressure

Cyclic Fatigue in a fitting due to


repeated exposure to overpressure

WATER HAMMER ARRESTERS


Water hammer arresters are devices designed to provide protection against hydraulic shock in
the building water supply system.
Two types of devices air chamber and mechanical devices (Copper billows).

AIR CHAMBERS
Source: IPC 2012

AIR CHAMBER
Air chambers are large
diameter pipes (2 3 times
the
pipe
connection)
usually 450-750 mm long.
They have air trapped in
top portion which absorbs
the water hammer shock
waves.
They
are
sometimes
placed on top of a riser
pipe depending on the
pressure conditions.
They are provided with a
shut-off valve, a drain valve
and an air vent cock to
periodically renew the air.

AIR CHAMBER INSTALLATION

WATER HAMMER ARRESTERS


Water hammer arresters are
made by copper bellows or
rubber bags enclosed in a cast
iron body.
The bellow or bag is charged
with air or nitrogen which
absorbs excess pressure in the
pipe line.

Note: Bellow is a device


constructed to furnish a
strong blast of air. It is
therefore sometimes called
blast bag.

BASIC DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Use conservative designs.


Use 1-2 m/s flow velocity in all pipe design calculations.
Exact calculations are often thwarted due to pipes being available in
discrete sizes.
Pipes get scoured at high velocities; steel and CI may deteriorate at 34m/s; plastics, concrete, copper at 2-3 m/s.
In case of waste pipes, deposition of waterborne particles on pipe
walls starts at low velocities (viz. 0.3 m/s for inorganic particles; 0.6
m/s for organic particles). It reduces carrying capacity of pipes and
eventually chokes them. The minimum flow velocity in drains pipes
should be 0.8 m/s. This velocity is called self cleansing velocity, which
is of special concern in the design of building drainage system.
Wastes contain organic matter that decompose an produce noxious
gases like hydrogen sulfide and methane. These gases increase
pressure in pipes. Waste pipes are therefore never designed to flow
full. Instead, maximum depth of flow in these pipes is of the order or
80% of total depth of flow, viz. pipe diameter.

SEWERS

Sewers are designed to flow only partially full, say 80-85% =>d 0.8D
Average flow = 80-85% of water
supplied
Maximum Flow Twice of Average

Average Flow
Hydraulic Elements: h = D d
= 2 cos-1[ (D - 2h)/D ]
A = D2 /4 D2( sin)/8
P = D D/2
R = A/P
Design Procedure: Assume a pipe diameter and verify the following; otherwise
revise the diameter.
Check: Carrying capacity > Maximum flow at 0.8 depth and V=1m/s
Find depth at minimum flow using 0.8m/s velocity and find pipe slope for this
velocity.
Calculate depth of flow and velocity at maximum flow for the pipe slope
calculated in previous step. This velocity should be less than pipe materials
scousing velocity.

EXAMPLE
Design a sewer pipe for 100 occupancy in a residential building.
Solution
Assume water supply rate at 200 lpcd.
Assume wastewater produced at about 80% of water supplied.
Average flow of wastewater generated from the building is therefore
0.8x100x200 = 16000 L/d = 1.84x10-4 m3/s.
Minimum flow = 16000/3 = 5333 L/d = 0.61x10-4 m3/s
Maximum flow = 2x16000 = 32000 L/d = 3.7x10-4 m3/s
Normally 100mm diameter CI pipes are used in house sewers.
Check for carrying capacity at 0.8 depth:
h=0.2D, =2cos-1(0.6)=1060=1.85 rad
A = x0.12/4 0.12( sin)/8
= 7.85x10-3-0.01(1.85-sin 106)/8 = 6.74x10-3m2 .
At 3 m/s velocity, flow = 6.74x10-3 m2x3m/s = 0.02m3/s > maximum
flow. OK.

EXAMPLE

Minimum Flow Condition:


A = 0.61x10-4 /0.8 = 0.77x10-4m2
=> 0.77x10-4 = D2 /4 D2( sin)/8
= x0.12/4 0.12( sin)/8=7.85x10-31.25x10-3 (sin)=>sin=6.22
Solving by trial and error, =5.35
=5.35=2cos-1[(D-2h)/D]=>1-2h/D=Cos(/2)=-0.89=>h=0.95D
d=D-h = 0.05D = 0.005m;
P = D D/2 = 0.047m;
R=A/P =1.64x10-3 m;
V=0.8= 0.849CR0.63S0.54 =>S=0.32 for C=100, i.e. slope of pipe=1 in 3.1, say
1:3.
Maximum Flow Condition:
Q=AV =Ax0.849C(A/P)0.63S0.54 = 0.849x100xA1.63S0.54/P0.63
=> 3.7x10-4= 84.9x [D2/4 D2( sin)/8 ]1.63 (0.33)0.54/[DD/2]0.63
On Simplification, [D2/4 D2( sin)/8 ]1.63 = 7.9x10-6 [DD/2]0.63
Substituting, [7.85x10-31.25x10-3 (sin)]1.63= 7.9x10-6 [0.3140.05]0.63
Solving by trial and error, =5.25 => A= 2x10-4m2 =>V = 1.85 m/s < 3m/s. OK.

Flimsy
The term flimsy is used to describe the as constructed plan of the
internal plumbing constructed by a plumber to connect a house to
the sewer mains. Plumbers are legally obliged to provide the Water
Corporation with the as constructed plan or flimsy after completing
