Tubewell question for Agriculture people

[umair221]

so far that really is my best option...

we have proper computerised graphs for waterflow which tells pump efficiency and load

[qwertypoiu]

You dont have any other option.. .. be it feasible or not...

Ji sir. Why?

we have maximum 5" dia here, so i was amazed,, plz make a video next time u visit there

A 125 feet deep bore cost 85k rs. Pipe had 7 inch dia.
The price includes labor, fan, pipe etc, complete set up.
Peter was extra and 20hp cost 42k.

Ji sir. Why?

Haroon bhai the dia must be 7 inch while the radius will be 3.5 inch.

Buddy, thanks for bothering yourt grandpa. More than I asked for...

Cusec sir, is the flow rate. 1 cusec = 1 cubic foot of water per second. Other units are liters per second, galons per minute etc etc.

I would also help if someone could give me specs of the flow rate and power consumption (or diesel). I want to calculate if the cost of water is feasible for my project, which is agriculture industry related.

You have to have the velocity to calculate the flow. A 4 inch dia pipe will have area of 0.087 sq.ft wecan only calculate the flow when we have the velocity. We must have 17.24 ft/sec velocity to attain 1.5 cusec flow. The velocity i think is too high to attain. You have to use a large dia pipe.

It must have been 7 inch dia while 3.5 inch radius.

Edited the post for correction.

@zia1288 aaho you are right. I need English coaching

Haroon bhai the dia must be 3.5 inch while the radius will be 7 inch as 7 inch dia is too much for the tube well.

It must have been 7 inch radius while 3.5 inch dia.

Zia you are wrong...radius is half the diameter!!! i wasn't expecting this from a guy like u with engineering background

buhat acchhe!!

about 3.5 years ago i got myself installed a tubelwell at my farmhouse in Lahore... depth was 400 feet, dia was 8/6 inch with outer pipe of 5 inches... i did calculate the flow rate during installation time but dont remember it now as it was just a formality and not something i was looking upto as a benchmark. Anyways till now i have been operating it on a 25 horse power peter engine but will switch to electricity after the wheat season. peter engine running on middle to high speed will consume 2.25/2.5 litres diesel per hour...
now remember that their are 2 water levels and in lahore the depth in agriculture areas comes to around 100/150 feet and 350+ feets. to access a level of 300 Feet plus you need a turbine as by hand you can not go below 250/300 feet max. you would require a pit of about 50/60 feet if you want to stick to the old by-hand method.
you can get a solar tubewell installed as well.. its a proven technology now. submersible pumps are also available but i did not want to experiment and thus took the safer route by opting for the decades old design. during my search for a reliable person/company i visited the relevant people at daroghewala as well as the market near railway station and settled for Nawab Tubelwell. they are the ones installing tube well all over DHA as well as at all Gourmet facility. During the installation phase and during the last 3/4 years as well i have found them to be highly reliable as they have catered to all complaints or requests from our side.

I just want to know contact details of people who do this kind of thing, boring and installation of tubewells....

Saad Asif at 03335338035 can help you with solar tubewells if you need.

Lol mixed it up. The dia is Actually 7 inches while the radius will be 3.5 inches

I still do need coaching classes. After spending a few years in Deutschland, English vocabulary has gone down the drain.

radiusis still the same in German according to google translate. Get a plumber to check your drains properly buddy....

Haste richtig gesagt aber the need to learn German was for normal life and nothing technical.
We are told here to learn English all our lives. Europe told me, you need to learn at least Spanish here to get on with your life.
It was way problematic in the start. Met many fellow countrymen who were less educated but way ahead than me when it came to speaking and understanding Deutsch.

Fark par jata hy brother.

Ab Spanish thori thori, Deutsch guzare ki aur English kaam chalane k liye a gyi hy

laikin phir b radius to same hi hota ha na

[Haroon_Tarar]

Ustad ji samjho. Mainu radius da mtlb nhi aanda.
Degree degree hoti hy. Pipe 7 da ve. Radius bnao ya diameter. Tuhada masla

Okay guys, I've contacted a few companies...including the one @umair221 suggested. And there's a problem...they are all divided into two "kinds". there's the boring guys and then there's the pump+engine/motor suppliers. So they just don't understand what I need...

All I need is ground water of good quality with continuous flow rate of 1.5 cusec in burki area (cantt.), Lahore. And I want someone to give me a complete cost estimate and estimated energy requirements at full capacity. This is what I need.

So if someone knows of a company that does everything for me.......plz do tell me.

[Vajih102]

Didn't you contact the guy i told you ov?

call Zaki @ 0324 493 322 2..
you can get the required specs for under 6.5 lacs. Water quality in the area is good in the lower water column.. got it tested myself from 2 places (both non government)

Solar is too expensive bro....I'm guessing I need ~15-20kW. With solar panels at a minimum of 60rs/watt, that's gonna cost me more than a million just in solar panels and I need water 24/7....That's why I didn't contact...

Can you pm me the water quality test results....? And what parameters did you get tested...

And thanks for the contact, I'll try it....
