Subject: Calculation for determining bottom level of sluice gate in common wall between CCT

and CWR
(i) Let bottom of gate (1.5m X 1.5 m) = y
(ii) Headloss in gate acting as port = 0.2 m
(iii) Minimum WL in CCT = y+1.5+0.2
= y+1.7
(iv) Headloss from CCT to common Filtered water channel = 0.4m
(v) TWL in filtered channel
= y+1.7+0.4
= y+2.1
(vi) Floor level in wash water pump room = 75.3 m RL
(vii) Height of plinth frame and volute = 1.55 m
(viii) Top of volute = 75.3 + 1.55
= 76.85 m RL
(ix) For priming (v) > (viii)
y +2.1 > 76.85
y > 74.75
Say 75.00
Conclusion:
Install sluice gate in CCT-CWR with sill level at 75.0m.

Subject: Additional comments for Air blower in filter Annex building and installation of sluice
gate in CCT-CWR
Air blower set in filter Annex building drawing No. LE170612-P-WS-WT-GA-2018

Acoustic hood is shown for air blowers. Air blower set with pulley and V belt is proposed as shown in GAD
of filter annex building. From maintenance point of view V belt requires inspection for which acoustic
hood will have to be taken out frequently. Considering above it is proposed to provide direct coupled Air
blowers set.

Sluice gates in CCT

It is also seen from filter Annex building drawing No. LE170612-P-WS-WT-GA-2018 that water in common
filter channel is required to be maintained above volute of pump, to ensure priming without aid of vacuum
pump. To achieve priming top water level in the common filter water channel is required to be maintained
at about 76.85m.

This can be maintained only if some control is kept on downstream units. Most suitable control
arrangement would be to raise sluice gates, SG -04 & SG-05 as shown in the GAD of CWR and pump house
to 75m RL, instead of as shown in R2 version of drawing No. LE170612-M-WS-CW-GA-1015 & drawing No.
