This document provides diagrams and calculations for the level and flow of water in a cooling tower basin and pump sump system. It includes: 1) Diagrams showing the elevations of the maximum, normal, and minimum water levels in the cooling tower basin and pump sump. 2) Calculations of the dimensions, flow rate, and slope required to maintain a velocity of 0.3 m/s for gravity flow through the channel between the cooling tower and pump sump. 3) Diagrams of the pump installation layout in the pump sump, including dimensions of the pump, screen, and stopgate configuration.

Flow through CW channel to CW & ACW pump sump

For gravity flow in open channel , Mannings Formula has been used

Mannings Formula V = 1.486/n X R 2/3H a1/2

Where, V = Velocity
n = Constant ( assumed for concrete channel)
R = Hydraulic Radius = Area/ Wetted perimeter
=by/(b+2y) (b = width, y = depth)
Ha = Energy Gradient b=
= ha/L, where ha = head difference & L = channel length

Calculation:

1. CT 1B to mixing with CT 2B:


This will be the slope if the velocity is accepted as 0.3 m/s, which may not be acceptable.
Inputs:

V = 3.28 ft/s Flow (Q) = 10.6944 m3/s y= 4.87 m R= 6.8439136


= 1 m/s
L = 84 m Area (A) = 35.56 m2 b= 7.30 m
n = 0.013
b/y = 1.5/1 Hence, b = 1.5 y Velocity = 0.30078 m/s = 0.986565434 ft/s

To maintain this velocity at the outlet of CT basin Ha = 3.0558027E-07


ha = 8.4193477E-05
This ha will drop when total run will be = 3272462.54657 ft
Maximum flow of CW & ACW in one CT (Q) = 38500 m3/hr

From continuitity equationb, Q = A x V

Area of the cross section (i.e. b x y = A) of the channel = 10.69 m2

Therefore, depth (y) of the channel = 2.67 m


& width (b) of the channel = 4.01 m

Hence, R = 1.14 m
= 3.7534492074 ft

and Ha = 0.0001411528

Therefore, ha = 0.0118568321 m

2. After mixing of CT 2B:

Inputs:

V = 3.28 ft/s
= 1 m/s
L = 94 m
n = 0.013
b/y = 1.5/1 Hence, b = 1.5 y
Maximum flow of CW & ACW in one CT (Q) = 77000 m3/hr

From continuitity equationb, Q = A x V

Area of the cross section (i.e. b x y = A) of the channel = 21.39 m2

Therefore, depth (y) of the channel = 3.78 m


& width (b) of the channel = 5.66 m

Hence, R = 1.62 m
= 5.3081787748 ft

and Ha = 8.8920668E-05

Therefore, ha = 0.0083585428 m

3. After mixing of CT 1A:

Inputs:

V = 3.28 ft/s
= 1 m/s
L = 36 m
n = 0.013
b/y = 1.5/1 Hence, b = 1.5 y

Maximum flow of CW & ACW in one CT (Q) = 115500 m3/hr


From continuitity equationb, Q = A x V

Area of the cross section (i.e. b x y = A) of the channel = 32.08 m2

Therefore, depth (y) of the channel = 4.62 m


& width (b) of the channel = 6.94 m

Hence, R = 1.98 m
= 6.5011647308 ft

and Ha = 6.785917E-05

Therefore, ha = 0.0024429301 m

4. After mixing of CT 2A:

Inputs:

V = 3.28 ft/s
= 1 m/s
L = 60 m
n = 0.013
b/y = 1.5/1 Hence, b = 1.5 y

Maximum flow of CW & ACW in one CT (Q) = 154000 m3/hr


From continuitity equationb, Q = A x V

Area of the cross section (i.e. b x y = A) of the channel = 42.78 m2

Therefore, depth (y) of the channel = 5.34 m


& width (b) of the channel = 8.01 m

Hence, R = 2.29 m
= 7.5068984148 ft

and Ha = 5.6016511E-05

Therefore, ha = 0.0033609907 m

Hence, total h a for the entire run of channel = 0.0260193 m


= 26.019296 mm
y=

ft
