Domestic Water Demand Calculation

Total number of one bedroom

= 19

Total number of two bedrooms

= 19

Total number of three bedrooms

=3

Total number of studio

=8

Water demand

= (27x150 Gal/Day)+(19x200 Gal/Day)+(3x250

Gal/Day)
= 8600 Gal/Day

Water demand for kitchens:

For main or production kitchen assume 3 meals/day/guest room

3 meals x 49 guest

= 147 meals/day

From AD standard 2 Gal/Meal

= 147 meal/day x 2 Gal/meal = 294 Gal/day

Consider other satellite kitchen in first and ground floor (staff dining)
=

294 Gal/day x 0.5

= 147 Gal/day

Water demand for kitchens

= 294+147 = 441 Gal

Total water daily demand

= (8600+441) Gal = 9041 Gal = 42m3

Fire water reserve (750 USGPM)

for one hour

= 171 m3

Total water ground tank

= 42 + 171 m3

= 215m3

Over Head GRP Tank

= 21 m3

1.

Raw water day storage

2.

Filter water will be reserved in 2 nos. GRP tanks one for cooled cold water and the other
for normal cold water, total capacity for the 2 nos. GRP tanks will be equal to
domestic water demand as follow:
a)

Cooled cold water will be used for guest rooms except WCs and hot water.
Total capacity

b)

= 6.7m3 (32% of filtered water)

Normal cold water will be used for guest rooms WCs, hot water and main
kitchens cold/hot water requirement.
Total capacity

= 14.3m3 (68% of filtered water)

Hot Water Demand

1. For Guest Rooms and Public Toilets
From (Ground to 9th) floors:
-

Number of guest room

= 56 room

Hot water storage for guest room 45 L/Room

= 45 L/Room x 60 Room
= 2520 L

No. of calorifiers = 3 Nos. each one

= 900 Lit.

Electrical heating load = 2700x(65-25)x4.187 / 3600x2Hr. = 63 KW

From (10th to 12th) floors:

-

Number of guest room

= 18 room

Hot water storage for guest room 45 L/Room

= 45 L/Room x 18 Room
= 810 L

No. of calorifiers

= 2 Noseach one=440 Lit

Electric heating load =880x(65-25)x4.187/ 3600x2 Hr.

= 21 KW

2. For kitchen and satellite kitchen

-

Assume we have 74 guest room and each guest room take 3 meals/day
74 room x 3 meals/rooms = 222 Meals

Hot water demand for 222 meals = 222 meal x 6 L/meal

= 1332 L

To consider satellite kitchens 50% from hot water

demand of main kitchen

= 666 L

Total hot water demand= 1332+666

= 1998 L

No. of calorifiers

= 2 Nos. x 1000 L (each)

Electric heating load

= 2000 Lx(80-25) Cx4.187/1Hr.x3600 = 130 KW

2 Nos. of calorifiers x 65 KW (each).

Pumps Sizing
1) Water Transfer Pumpset Located at B2:
Pump head = Static delivery head + velocity head + frication head + static suction lift +
0.5 bar (residual pressure) + 1 bar safety = 85m
Flow rate (Q) = V/2 Hr.

= 21 m3 x 1000 / 2x3600 = 3 L/s

2) Type Hot Water Circulation Pump Located at Basement 2

Flow rate (L/s)
Flow Rate

= Total length x Heat loss per meter

= (522)m x 20 w/m / 4.186x10x103 = 0.25 L/s ; use (0.5 L/s)

3) Water filtration pump flow rate = 21 m3/4 hr. = 1.5 L/s.

4) Booster pump set for CWS located at roof:
Total loading unit
Flow rate
Head

= 360 L.U
= 3 L/s
= 20m

5) Booster pump set for CCWS located at roof:

Total loading unit
Flow rate
Head

= 276 L.U
= 2.9 L/s
= 20m

6) Circulating pump set for CCWS located at roof:

Flow rate = Q / Cp x TC = 19.5 KW / 4.186 (23-16) = 0.7 L/s
Head
= 15m
7) Hot Water Circulation Pump Set for 3 Nos. Calorifier (Located at the roof):
Flow rate(L/s)

= T.L x (w/m) / 4.187 x 10 C x 103

= 548m x 20 w/m / 4.186x10x103 = 0.5 L/s

Head

= V2/2g + Static + T.L x 1.5 x 0.05m + pressure loss in calorifier

= 4/2x10 + Zero + (174x1.5x0.04)+ 4m = 15m

8) Hot water circulation pump set for 2 nos. calorifier (Located at the roof):
Flow rate
Head

= 0.5 L/s.
= 10m

HEX Capacity for Cooled Water Located at the Roof

- Cooled tank capacity

6.7 m3

- HEX capacity = (6.7x1000) L x4.186x(40-20)L

/ 8Hr.x3600

19.5 KW

- CHW flow rate = 24.5 KW / 4.186 x 6.7

0.7 L/s

1) Holding Tank Capacity for One Week

Domestic water demand for one day

= 45 m3

Considering 90% as drainage 0.9x54m3

= 41 m3

For 7 days storage Holding tank capacity

= 287 m3

Sewage lift station pump located at the holding tank (L/s) = 287m3 x 103 / 6 Hrs. x 3600 S/Hr.
= 12.3 L/s. / 2 duty
= 6.2 L/s
Head
= 20m
2) Sewage Lift Station Pump Calculation:
Total D.U for Toilet Located at Basement 1:
Total DU

17.6 L/s (DU)

Qww = K x (DU)

=
=

0.7 17.6
2.94 L/s

Flow rate for the sewage pump will be taken 7 L/s (for each pump) to match NFPA
requirement.
Head

= Dynamic + friction loss + residual pressure at reducing

manhole + static discharge head + static suction level
= (4/2x9.8)+(42x0.01x1.15)+1m+12.4m=15m (Head)

3) Sump Pump
- Sump pump located at upper part of the basement:
Flow rate

=14 L/s as per NFPA requirement / 2 pump (1

duty/1backup) = 7 L/s. (each)

Head

= Head for sewage lift station = 15m

Pit size:
The height for sump pump

= 1.4m + Depth of the last CB

= 1.4+0.67m = 2.0m

- Sump pump located at lower part of the basement:

Flow rate

=14 L/s as per NFPA requirement / 2 pump (1

duty/1backup) = 7 L/s. (each)

Head

= Head for sewage lift station = 15m

Pit size:
The height for sump pump

= 1.4m + Depth of the last CB

= 1.4+0.74m = 2.2m

Fire Pumps Calculation

Flow rate(for electrical &
diesel pumps)

= 750 USGPM

Flow rate for jockey pump

= 50 USGPM

Head

= Static head + velocity head + friction head + static

suction lift:
= 65m + (2)2/2x9.8 + (92m) x 1.5x0.04 mm
= 71m + 69m (6.9 bar) (Residual pressure at landing
valve) = 140m
