Evaluación del sistema primario de abastecimiento del barrio La Paz - Chocó Andino : Evaluación hidráulica.

Abstract

This project proposes improvements in the supply system of the La Paz neighborhood through a hydraulic analysis carried out in the EPANET program, beginning with a study of the catchment, where an adequate analysis of the supply source has been carried out, analyzing the works recruitment that were implemented empirically by the inhabitants of the neighborhood; These collection works do not have any maintenance plan or people trained to carry it out. The conduction line was implemented by donating a high-density polyethylene pipe with an internal diameter of 63 mm, without performing technical and hydraulic analysis. Surveys were carried out where it was extended that currently the La Paz neighborhood has a population of 28 inhabitants and two shops, a restaurant that has the capacity to receive 40 tourists and a hotel with the capacity to receive 25 tourists; The flow that supplies the La Paz neighborhood was calculated by the volumetric method in the distribution tank and by the ultrasonic meter in the conduction pipe. The design flow of 0.57 L/s is determined for a future population of 60 inhabitants using censuses published by the INEN and the surveys carried out in the neighborhood, maximum hourly and daily flows were calculated for the future population. The distribution tank was evaluated determining the current tank volume of 18.79 m3 and the future volume, making a comparison to establish if the tank will continue fulfilling its function in a period of 30 years. The improvement for the supply system of the La Paz neighborhood will be changed, with the design of a triangular landfill, it will implement air and drain valves, it will replace the pipe and connection accessories in the reserve tank according to the results and analysis obtained.
