Design and Implementation of Rain Water Harvesting for Domestic Usage
Water is a vital component for all people on the planet. We generally underestimate it as a result of its accessibility but when in shortage, it turns into our most valuable resource. Malaysia gets a high level of rainfall as the year progressed but not until June 2014. It is also highly proven that Malaysia faced a dramatic complication in reduction of rain fall on June 2014 which leads to 700,000 family units at Klang Valley were influenced by water disturbances brought by low water levels at water treatment plants in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur. Hereby, harvesting rain water for domestic usage is studied where archaeologist recent confirmation verifies that the catch of rainwater extent 4,000 years back and the idea of rainwater harvesting in China may go back 6,000 years. The discovery of harvesting rain water for domestic usage led Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN) and this project to an option or substitution in times of dry spell. The work also can reduce the water bill payment and supply continuous clean water to the residence. The major outcome of this work shows 20 L/s pump flow rate is chosen from three test cases for the rain water harvesting system using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software as it gives the best rain water velocity, pressure and turbulent kinetic energy distribution along the system.
