Download or read book How to design a Gravity Flow Water System written by Santiago Arnalich and published by Arnalich. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook teaches how to design drinking water systems and to do the calculations by hand. With minimal theory and through 28 progressive exercises, the most common scenarios are introduced one by one: branch lines, joining multiple sources, valley passes, pressure zones, and looped systems. Following simple, quick and reliable guidelines to achieve clear and tangible results for gravity flow water projects, the reader will learn how to decide on pipe diameters, check an existing design, and plan a system enlargement.
