Evaluation of Intermittent Water Supply System
and Design of 24x7 for a residential area in Mysore,
Karnataka, India
Abstract
Water is a basic need for life, without water life would not exist. Today in Indian scenario
about one in every nine people lack access to good quality water. Although water is
renewable it is finite and precious. Now-a-days due to increase in water demand resulted in
depleting ground water resources that in turn increased in the capital cost for water supply
thus, alternative methods for conservation are to be developed one such is 24x7 which helps
to prevent deliberate wasting of water in comparison to intermittent water supply system. In
this paper along with the design of the 24x7water supply system for existing intermittent
water supply system water quality analysis is being done. Designing of Water supply system
is made using LOOP and EPANET and compared for their efficiency.
Keywords: Water, Quality, Design, LOOP, EPANET, 24x7, Intermittent
1. Introduction
Water supply system is an infrastructure for the collection, transmission, treatment, storage and
distribution of water for homes, commercial establishments, industry, and irrigation, as well as for
public needs as firefighting and street flushing. Of all municipal services, providing of safe
drinking water is perhaps the most vital. In all cases, the its role is to fulfill both quality and quantity
requirements. It has remained the most severe issue for the Urban Local Bodies (ULB), whether they
are located in water abundant or water starved region.
1.1 Intermittent System of Supply
In this case, water is supplied at regular intervals for certain period of the day (either in the morning
or in the evening). Water supply systems do not operate as designed hence, reservoir capacities are
often underutilized, and valves suffer wear and tear [1]. Since, water is supplied by zoning the

distribution system, more man power is required [2]. During non-supply hours, pipes are empty and
dirt water enters pipelines at vulnerable spots and water is contaminated [1]. Large doses of chlorine
or other disinfectants are required to make water safe from microbial pollution [3]. Due to limited
hours, peak factor is often in the range of 4 to 6 in most of the systems [4]. Therefore, large sizes of
pipe mains are required for strengthening the network to meet the hydraulic requirements [4].
Inconvenient supply hours affect poor people. Large size of storage is required and consumers have to
pay for pumping. Also, it results in poor sanitation practices leading to increase in health risks and
mortality. Due to intermittent water supply, often meters go out of order resulting in loss of revenue.
Besides, due to uncertainty consumers store a large quantity of water and waste it before collecting
fresh water again. This adds to a huge undue wastage of precious treated water.
1.2 Continuous System of Supply
In this case, water is delivered continuously to every customer of the service 24 hours a day, every
day of the year, through a transmission and distribution system that is continuously full and under
positive pressure throughout all of its pipelines and networks. In this system, pressurized water supply
overcomes shortcomings of intermittent supply and ensures customer convenience and benefits the
poor. Continuous high quality water supply system reduces contamination level as the pipes are under
positive pressure and entry of contaminants into the pipes is restricted [4]. Life of distribution
networks increases as steady pressure in the pipes causes less damage to the pipes. A better demand
management is possible due to elaborate metering and effective leakage control. It also results in less
storage of water or none at all, which in turn reduces wastage of water. Continuous supply of pure
water boosts the economy and attracts more industries and businesses [4].
1.3 Objectives of the Paper
The main objective of this study is to verify the existing water distribution network (intermittent) and
designing of 24x7 water distribution system using computer software’s for the selected DMA of
Mysore city. The specific objectives are:

2.4 Software for water supply distribution system
2.4.1 Preloop
To find out the nodal demand at each node, Sri Jayachamarajendra college of Engineering, Mysore
has developed software called PRELOOP for Integrated Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Scheme
under World Bank assisted project. The data required for PRELOOP software include:
Pipe Data – Pipe number, connecting node numbers, Pipe length, Hazen-Williams coefficient,
number of persons per house, existing number of houses and house connections in each link (pipeline)
and proposed number of house and house connections.
Node Data – Node numbers and corresponding elevation (Reduced level).
HGL Data – Source node number and node head.
This software is used for calculating the nodal demand and all the input data along with nodal demand
will be transferred to LOOP software.
2.4.2 LOOP
LOOP version 3.0 menu driven computer program written in BASIC is used for the design of water
supply distribution system for both existing and proposed. LOOP program will accept any looped,
partially looped/branched or completely branched network. LOOP uses the Hardy-Cross algorithm to
determine the flow corrections to the assumed flows in pipelines [8]. The flow correction is based on
the concepts of maintaining the flow continuity at node and maintaining a sum of zero head losses
around any loop[8]. Once the flows are determined that meet the above conditions, HGL elevations at
each node can be easily calculated. The LOOP program can accommodate network containing a
maximum of 500 pipes and 400 nodes. It includes cost analysis also and Hazen-Williams equation is
used in the program to calculate the head loss and velocity.
2.4.3 EPANET
EPANET is a computer program that performs extended period simulation of hydraulic and water
quality behavior within pressurized pipe networks. A network consists of pipes, nodes (pipe
junctions), pumps, valves and storage tanks or reservoirs [6]. EPANET tracks the flow of water in
each pipe, the pressure at each node, the height of water in each tank, and the concentration of a
chemical species throughout the network during a simulation period comprised of multiple time steps.
In addition to chemical species, water age and source tracing can also be simulated. The data required
for the EPANET software include:
Node Data – Node number, Elevation, Nodal Demand
Pipe data – Pipe number, Length, diameter, C-factor (Roughness)
Tank data – Bottom elevation, Diameter, Initial and Minimum water levels, Initial water quality.
Running under Windows, EPANET provides an integrated environment for editing network input
data, running hydraulic and water quality simulations, and viewing the results in a variety of formats.
These include color-coded network maps, data tables, time series graphs, and contour plots.

Peak factor - As per CPHEEO [7] a peak factor is to be 2 to 3,which varies according with the
population. In the present study peak factor was calculated by monitoring the time required for the
completely filled Service level reservoir to get completely empty which was carried out for one week
and calculated as 1.25 with 4 hours of supply.
Residual pressure and minimum pipe size - The minimum and maximum residual pressures are kept at
7m and 20m respectively. The minimum pipe size adoptedis 90 mm, 6KSC, PVC pipes.
Elevation of the Reservoir - The staging height off the existing reservoir is 15m.

The results clearly show that Residual chlorine and MPN are interdependent variables, Also it shows
that amount of chlorine added for the purpose of disinfection in Phase 2 (during summer) is not at
detected and the required level of disinfection is not at all reached thus, resulting in consumer Dis-
satisfaction. Other Parameters vary significantly within the desired limits is because of water age [5],
pipe material [10] etc.

The present population is supplied with a water supply rate of 110 lpcd, for the projected continuous
supply considered is 135 lpcd and as per CPHEEO [7] the supply rate for institutions in case of
continuous supply is 45 lpcd, Restaurants is 70 lpcd, hospitals is 340 lpcd, Constructions, Apartments
and vacant sites it is 135 lpcd. At present newly constructed 15 Lakh liters capacity service level
reservoir is in operation, hence for 24x7 water supply scheme the tank could be filled twice as per the
above calculated demand requirements.
3.5 Verification of existing water supply network for the present demand
The DMA 6300 is divided into part 1 and part 2 for the purpose of the water distribution due to
variation of reduced level. The Lower elevation i.e., part 1 is provided with water supply all at once

without any control valves whereas, higher elevation i.e., part 2 is provided with control valves to see
that pressure is maintained at every consumer end. With a present water supply rate of 110 lpcd and
‘C’ value of 100, using LOOP and EPANET programme for existing water distribution system was
verified table 3.8 shows the pipes and nodes with high head loss and negative pressure for both
software due to smaller diameter pipes and high demand.

3.6 Remodeling of existing water supply distribution system
After verifying the carrying capacity of the existing water supply network for the existing demand and
ultimate demand i.e., for design period 2044 it was observed that the diameter of some of the existing
pipes were inadequate to carry the flow for ultimate demand. Hence this necessitated going for
remodeling of existing water supply distribution network. Remodeling was done based on the concept
of providing parallel pipes table 3.9 and 3.10 below shows the details of remodeling using LOOP and
EPANET.

4 Conclusions
Finally based on the study carried out following conclusions were drawn;
Characterization results showed that there was a prominent factor prevailing in the existing
supply network that was responsible for the unacceptable water quality resulting in high MPN
count.
The residual chlorine was not sufficient during the summer periods as the analysis results
during March-April 2014 were below detectable levels and thus, showed that proper
quantification of the disinfectant is to be done before adding so as to ensure safe drinking for
consumers.
The simulation results showed that there were some low pressure nodal points prevailing and
also high head loss had occurred network which had to be provided with parallel pipes to
solve the problem and provide continuous water supply system.
Peak factor determination was done for a period of one week, where it was found 1.25 but as
per CPHEEO for 4 hours supply it should be 3 in case of existing system
At present newly constructed service level reservoir is constructed and being put into work of
15 Lakh liters capacity however, for continuous supply scheme the tank has to be filled twice
as per the water demand calculation as per the survey done which resulted in the value of 24,
82, 250 Liters per day.
The remodeling option adapted here is by providing parallel pipes which seems more
economical when compared to laying new pipes entirely in the DMA 6300.
