POKHARA UNIVERSITY

Level: Bachelor Semester – Year : 2002


Programme: Full Marks: 100
Course: Watert supply Engineering Time : 3hrs.
Candidates are required to give their answers in their own words as far
as practicable.
The figures in the margin indicate full marks.
Attempt all the questions.

1. Describe objectives underlying public water supply. Discuss river and 15


reservoir intakes with sketches as collection components for public water
supply scheme.

2. a) A survey was carried out in 1981 in rural village of Gorkha district 10


and following data were obtained: population 5500, 2 offices, 1 health
post, a school with 250 day students, number of cows, goats, pigs and
chickens are 40,62,6,570 respectively.
Determine total water demand of the village for design year 2022 in
annual population growth rate is 1.80%
b) State different water borne disease with causes and examples of each. 5
3. Difference between surface and underground sources of water from 15
quantitative and qualitative point of view. Describe stream and river
crossing with neat sketches.
4. A tow with population of 2 lakhs needs water supply at 135 litres per 15
head. The variation in demand is as follows:
5am -5 am 25%of total
1 am – 12 noon 25%of total
12 noon – 17 pm 20%of total
17 pm – 19 pm 20%of total
19 pm – 24 midnight 10%of total
5. Explain living organism in water with suitable examples. Describe in brief 15
the various types of materials used for manufacturing of water supply
pipes.(Quality of water and Conveyance of water)
6. Define plain sedimentation. The dimension of setting zone of a continuous 15
flow rectangular sedimentation tank is 57m *19m*3m. Find flow velocity
of water for effective removal of 1.025 mm particles at 25 0 C. The
specific gravity of particle is 2.65 and kinematic viscosity for water is
taken as 0.9 centistokes.
7. Write short notes on (Any Two)
a) Reservoir intake
