Budget
Runoff =A x R x C
A=Area in sq m
R= Annual rainfall in mm
C=Runoff coefficient
An example
A =200 m2
R = 500 millimeters
C = 0.80
Runoff = 80,000 litres
SIZE
Example:
Nos. of persons in a household : 5
Nos. of dry days in a year
: 200
Per capita consumption (lpcd) : 10
Water to store (non-monsoon period):
5 x 200 x 10 = 10,000 liters
So, size of storage tank to meet water demand =
10 cubic metres
SIZE
Availability
() Average annual rainfall
If rainfall is more than the demand, size for demand;
If rainfall is less than demand, size to rainfall
() Number of dry days
When rainfall is less than demand, plan for the most
scarce period
() Pattern of rainfall
When rain uniformly distributed size can be smaller;
() Type and size of the catchment
Larger the catchment, larger the size of the tank.
Demand versus
Availability
Demand
Demand versus
Availability
Demand
Nos. of persons in a household: 4
Dry days = 250 days; Scarcity period = 90 days;
Per capita consumption for only cooking and
drinking = 10 litres
1. Water demand for dry days = 4x10x250 = 10000 l
2. Water demand for scarcity period = 4x10x90 =
3600 l
So, size tank for dry days for only cooking &
drinking = 10,000 litres tank
Recommended = Overground tank
