Design of Scour Protection for Intake well structure
INPUTS:‐
Coefficient for shape of the structure K = 2 circular/ cylindrical
Mean current velocity U = 1.85 m/sec
Specific gravity of rock armor Ss = 2.4
2
Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/sec
Unit weight of armor stone γs = 26 kN/m3
Diameter of the structure D = 3.19 m
Height of the structure L = 10.63 m
2
Diameter of armor stone, D50 = 0.692 ( K.U)
2g ( Ss ‐ 1)
= 0.345 m
Weight of armor stone, W50 (min) = (D50)3 . γs
= 1.067 kN
Weight of Gradation fractions, W100 (max) = 5 . W50(min)
= 5.333 kN
W100 (min) = 2 . W50(min)
= 2.133 kN
W50 (max) = 1.5 . W50(min)
= 1.6 kN
W30 = W50(min) / 1.7
= 0.627 kN
W15 (max) = 0.75 . W50(min)
= 0.8 kN
W15 (min) = 0.31 . W50(min)
= 0.331 kN
Thickness (depth) of design, (below water)
1/3
r = (W30 / γs )
= 0.3 m
Scour depth, Sm = 0.06 . D
= 0.19 m
Length/dia of extent for protection, Ls = 0.75 . D
= 2.4 m
Provide 110 kg armor stones upto 300 mm depth above seabed for radius 2.4 m from
outer diameter of intake structure. (as per drwg attached)
