| dc.description.abstract | This project is to design the water supply network to the new animal feed plant Trío Tech S.A.
The objectives of the project were: determine the most appropriate distribution network of water supply in addition to calculating the diameters and SDR suitable, sizing equipment such as centrifugal pump, hydropneumatic tank and water reservoir, a third objective was to determine what accessories are required for installation of the network, a fourth objective was to draw the plans of the distribution and location of network equipment, the last objective was to determine the economic cost of the water distribution network.
To develop the project a collection of concepts, mathematical equations and design parameters was performed, and then information about the requirements of the equipment and sanitary fittings installed in the plant was collected. Two networks were designed, one for drinking water and one for process equipment
For the drinking water network diameters of 50 mm and 31 mm with SDR 17 are obtained, reservoir tank at least 1,8 m³, the centrifugal pump must provide 31 gpm (1,96 l/s) to 57 psi (40 mca) and the minimum volume of the hydropneumatic tank is 117 gallons (0,443 m³). This network has a cost ₡ 1 263 094 ivi.
For the process network diameters of 50 mm, 31 mm, 25 mm and 18 mm are obtained, with SDR 17, minimum of 22 m³ reservoir tank, centrifugal pump should provide 42 gpm (1,96 l/s) to 80,6 psi (57 mca) and the minimum volume of the hydropneumatic tank is 148,9 gallons (0,564 m³). This network has a cost of ₡ 3 863 202, 66 ivi. | |
