Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 1

Which sewer is having the maximum fluctuations in sewer discharge?

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 1

The fluctuation in sewage discharge is found to be maximum in the lateral sewer.

The fluctuation in sewage discharge reduced from lateral sewer to branch sewer, from branch sewer to the main sewer and from the main sewer to outfall sewer. An example of the respective fluctuation values are given below:

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 2

The Maximum velocity through a circular channel takes place when the depth of flow is equal to:

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 2

Maximum velocity occurs at 0.81 times the diameter and maximum discharge occurs at 0.95 times the diameter.

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 3

For the Sewer of size 550 mm, it is designed to run “x” times full. The value of x is

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 3

Sewers are never designed to run at full depth. If the size of the Sewer is less than 400 mm, these are designed to run half full. If the Sewer size is in the range of 400 to 900 mm, these are designed to run 2/3rd full. When the size of Sewer is more than 900 mm, these are designed for 3/4th full.

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 4

Consider the following statements for Sewers

1. Maximum Daily Discharge is two times average daily discharge

2. Maximum Hourly Discharge is three times average daily discharge

3. Minimum Daily discharge is Half of the average daily discharge

4. Minimum Hourly discharge is 2/3rdof the average daily discharge.

Identify the incorrect Statement?

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 4

(i) Maximum Daily discharge = 2 × Average Daily Discharge

(ii) Maximum Hourly discharge = 3 × Average Daily Discharge

(iii) Minimum Daily discharge = 2/3 × Average Daily Discharge

(iv) Minimum Hourly discharge = 1/3× Average Daily Discharge

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 5

Two pipe system of providing building drainage consists of

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 5

In this system, two sets of vertical pipes are laid, i.e., one for draining night soil, and the other for draining sullage. The pipes of the first set carrying night soil are called soil pipes, and the pipes of the second set carrying sullage from baths etc., are called sullage pipes or waste pipes. The soil pipe as well as the waste pipe, are separately ventilated by providing separate vent pipes or antisiphonage pipes.

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 6

The slope of a 1.0 m diameter concrete sewer laid at a slope of 1 in 1000, develops a velocity of 1 m/s, when flowing full. When it is flowing half – full, the velocity of flow through the sewer will be

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 6

For,

Where d is depth of flow

v is flow velocity at depth d

D is diameter of sewer

V is flow velocity at full flow

∴ v = 1.0 m/s 

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 7

A watershed of area 90 hectare has a runoff coefficient of 0.4. A storm of duration larger than the time of concentration of the watershed and of intensity 4.5 cm/h creates a peak discharge of

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 7

Peak flood by rational formula is given by QP = 136 KPcA
Where, K = Co-efficient of run off; pc = intensity (cm/hr); A = area in hectare

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 8

The drainage discharge of a town of 10 hectares area, consisting of 50% cc paved (k = 1.0), 30% unpaved (k = 0.20) and remaining as wooded (k = 0.10) with a maximum rain intensity of 5 cm/hr, would be computed by Rational formula, as equal to ----

Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 8

Overall, co-efficient of runoff (K or I)

 

Discharge, Q = AIR/360

A = Area in hectares

R = Intensity of rainfall in mm/hr

I = Co-efficient of run-off.

Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 9

In a city of population 2 Lakhs, the average per capita water demand is 135 L/c/day. To provide with the sewerage facilities in the town sewer is to be designed. Calculate the design discharge (m3/s) through the branch sewer if it is given that sewer is designed to carry 3 times the average discharge. Assume 80% of the water supplied in the city enters in the sewer


Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 9

About 80% of the water supplied in the city enters in the Sewer.

Average discharge through the Sewer

QAvg = 0.25 m3/sec

QDesign = 3 × QAvg

QDesign = 3 × 0.25 = 0.75 m3/sec

QDesign = 0.75 m3/sec

*Answer can only contain numeric values
Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 10

Calculate the minimum velocity (m/sec) required to transport Coarse sand through a sewer of 35 cm diameter with sand particles of 0.97 mm diameter and specific gravity 2.59, and organic matter of 4.75 mm average size with a specific gravity of 1.42. The friction factor for the sewer material may be assumed as 0.04 and roughness coefficient of 0.013. Consider k = 0.05 for inorganic solids and 0.07 for organic solids.


Detailed Solution for Test: Environmental Engineering- 3 - Question 10


Where Vsc = self cleaning velocity or minimum velocity in m/sec

k = constant depend upon type of Particle present in the Sewage

f = friction factor

d = size of particle under consideration(m)

For inorganic solid i.e. Coarse sand

VSC1 = 0.389 m/sec

For organic solid

 

VSC2 = 0.523 m/s

Minimum velocity required will be maximum of VSC1 and VSC2

So, VSC = 0.523 m/sec
