Flow rate / Pump Q/pump 100 m3/h
Flow rate (all duty pumps) Q total 100 m3/h
0.028 m3/s
Calculating Sump Dimensions:
Assume inlet flow rate to the sump Qi = 0.9 Qp 0.025 m3/s
Assume number of starts / hour 10 starts/hr
Required cycle time 6 min
360 sec
Required volume V' = T/[(1/Qi) + (1/(Qp - Qi)] 1.0 m3
Assume liquid working depth (H) H 0.56 m
Area A' = V/H 1.7 m2
Assume sump width W 2.5 m
Calculated sump length L' 0.69 m
Selected sump length L 3 m For pumps accommodation,installation and maintenance
Actual working volume V=H*W*L 4.20 m3

Assume minimum liquid depth 0.8 m
(to be verified with the selected vendor)
Sump bottom level B.Lsump = L.W.L - Minimum water depth -3.88 m
Start level for duty pump Start levelduty pump = ILinlet pipe - 0.2 -2.52 m
Start level for standby pump Start levelSB pump = ILinlet pipe - 0.1 -2.42 m
Pump stop level Stop level = L.W.L -3.08 m To be verrified by vendor
