Water Supply and Drainage

Water Supply Drainage
Pool Filling Time = 6 hrs Main Drain Flow = 1.3 L/s
Water Supply Flow = 1.6 L/s Pool Emptying Time = 7.2 hrs
Make-up Water = 575 L/day

Pool Chemistry
Disinfection and PH Control Systems
Chlorination Type : Calcium Hypochlorite
Hypochlorinator Capacity = 0.6 L/h
Effect on Pool PH = Increase Alkalinity (PH Increase)
PH Balancing Chemical = Sodium Bisulfate
Sodium Bisulfate Rate = 0.5 Kg/dose
Require Mixing Container Before Hypochlorinator

Pool Heater
Pool Heat-up Rate Heat Loss from Pool Surface
Water Density = 998 Kg/m
3
Surface H.T Coef. = 0.06 Kw/m2.°K
2
Specific Heat of Water = 4.18 KJ/Kg.K Pool surface area = 23 m
Desired Pool Temp. = 27 °C Pool Temperature = 27 °C
Initial Pool Temp. = 20 °C Ambient temperature = 24 °C
Pool Heat-up Time = 48 hrs
Pool Heat-up Rate = 5.9 Kw Pool Surface Loss = 4.2 Kw

Heater Capacity = 5.9 + 4.2 = 10.1 Kw

General Notes

1. Pool inlets should be spaced less than 6 m apart and within 1.5 m of a corner
2. Vacuum cleaning outlets should be located so that a hose of maximum 15 m can reach any point
3. Supply and return piping of the pumps should have a maximum velocity of 5 to 6 ft/s
4. Surge tanks are not required with vacuum diatomic filters, skimmers or continuous flow gutters
5. Chlorine gas usage is limited to large pools and some local codes don't permit its use
