Abstract
In this project, the water distribution network of Al-Kahlishah will be design. Al-Kahlishah area is located 5 Km from the center of Jenin.
the total surface area is about 780 Dunum It rises around 250 m above mean sea level.
Because of the lack of a water distribution network, the residents of the area resorted to other sources to obtain drinking water, which increases the cost of water for the people of the area.
in addition to the lack of other sources permanently.
Based on the above, we designed a water distribution network for the Al-Kahlishah area by pumping water from a well belonging to the Municipality of Jenin, sufficient to meet the needs of the residents of the area. We visited the Al-Kahlisha area, collected information, and conducted interviews with the residents of the area to find out the water needs of individuals and to see the nature and topography of the area.
After that, we inserted the area maps and contour lines into the (GIS) program to obtain the shape of the existing and proposed streets in order to know the initial shape of the network.
We entered this information into the (WaterCAD) program to calculate the appropriate diameters and pumps to design the network work at the best efficiency.
