Download or read book Water Works and Pipe Distribution Classic Reprint written by Francis C. Moore and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Works and Pipe Distribution The force of gravity acting with an ample reservoir differs from pump pressure for forcing water through pipes, in the important respect that it is always ready for instant use without notification by means of electric wires, tele phones, etc., and is not liable to break down or get out of order like pumps or other direct pressure appliances. It, moreover, exerts, at all times, a steady pressure on the pipe system, reducing the liability of breakage to a mini mum. A gravity system has a decided advantage over a direct pressure pumping system in that (if pipes are of proper size) the full volume of flow is instantly available without waiting to fire up extra steam boilers.

Download or read book Water Transmission and Distribution written by American Water Works Association and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water distribution systems are made up of pipe, valves and pumps through which treated water is moved from the treament plant to homes, offices, industries, and other consumers. The types of materials and equipment used by each water system are usually governed by local conditions, past practices, and economics. Consequently, drinking water professionals must be knowledgeable about common types of equipment and operating methods that are available. Completely revised and updated, Water transmission and distribution includes information on the following: distribution system design and operation and maintenance ; piping materials ; valves, pumps, and water meters ; water main installation ; backfilling, main testing, and installation safety ; fire hyfrants ; water storage ; water services ; cross-connection control ; motors and engines ; instrumentation and control ; information management and public relations.--Cover page [4].

This book was released on 2007-01-22 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protecting and maintaining water distributions systems is crucial to ensuring high quality drinking water. Distribution systems-consisting of pipes, pumps, valves, storage tanks, reservoirs, meters, fittings, and other hydraulic appurtenances-carry drinking water from a centralized treatment plant or well supplies to consumers' taps. Spanning almost 1 million miles in the United States, distribution systems represent the vast majority of physical infrastructure for water supplies, and thus constitute the primary management challenge from both an operational and public health standpoint. Recent data on waterborne disease outbreaks suggest that distribution systems remain a source of contamination that has yet to be fully addressed. This report evaluates approaches for risk characterization and recent data, and it identifies a variety of strategies that could be considered to reduce the risks posed by water-quality deteriorating events in distribution systems. Particular attention is given to backflow events via cross connections, the potential for contamination of the distribution system during construction and repair activities, maintenance of storage facilities, and the role of premise plumbing in public health risk. The report also identifies advances in detection, monitoring and modeling, analytical methods, and research and development opportunities that will enable the water supply industry to further reduce risks associated with drinking water distribution systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conveyance and Distribution of Water for Water Supply: Aqueducts, Pipe-Lines and Distributing Systems, a Practical Treatise for Water-Works Engineers and Superintendents During the past fifty years, great progress has been made in the construction and operation of water works. Large aqueducts and reservoirs have been built, the efficiency of pumping engines has been improved, and the purification of water has been greatly advanced. A number of good treatises on water supply have been published during recent years, but as they all endeavor to cover the whole subject, they necessarily fail to discuss some parts in sufficient detail to be of practical value to the water works engineer and superintendent. A complete treatise on water supply, including the collection and storage of water, its conveyance and distribution, pumping engines, water purification, and the maintenance and operation of water works, would require several volumes. Some of these subjects have already been fully discussed in separate treatises, but very little has thus far been published about the distribution of water, the detection and prevention of waste of water by means of Pitot tube gaugings and water meters; about fire protection, high-pressure water systems, tapping machines, valve-inserting machines, water stage recorders, and the many other devices and appurtenances with which the water works engineer and superintendent should be familiar. The author has endeavored to cover these subjects in the present volume. The facts given were obtained by practical experience, observation, study and correspondence during a service of over thirty years as one of the engineers of the water works of the City of New York; first, on the construction of the New Croton Aqueduct and Reservoirs, and later as consulting engineer of the Department of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity of said city, which has charge of the maintenance and operation of the City's water works. In discussing the various appurtenances and devices used on water works - such as gates, valves, hydrants, water meters, water-stage recorders, etc., - the author has described the leading types and makes. It is hoped that this feature, which makes the book somewhat encyclopedic, will save the water works engineer and superintendent much time and correspondence when he has occasion to consider the merits of different makes of appurtenances and devices.
