An aqueduct is required to supply water to the community.
Data:

  • Families = 12
  • Average members per family = 3 people
  • Breakfast, lunch and dinner = 15 total liters / family
  • Showers = 10lt / person, one daily shower
  • Kitchen wash = 13lts / day
  • Total distance of the pipeline to the storage tank = 1200 meters
  • Total height H from the pump point to delivery to the tank = 70 meters

Determine:

  1. Estimation of the total volume of the recommended tank, an autonomy of at leas 2 days of storage.
  2. It is required to propose a pump that allows at least filling the tank between 5 to 12 hours operation, it must include details of the pump, as well as its curve
