## Municipal Water Demand Estimation

Water demand planning starts with population and per-capita consumption estimates.

### Formulas

**Average daily demand = Population x Per capita consumption**

**Peak day demand = Average x Peak day factor**

Per-capita consumption includes domestic, commercial, industrial, and losses (unaccounted-for water). Peak factors account for seasonal and daily variation.

Esempio Risolto

A town of 10,000 people with 200 L/person/day consumption and 1.5 peak factor.

  1. Average daily = 10,000 x 200 = 2,000,000 L/day = 2000 m^3/day = 2.0 MLD
  2. Peak daily = 2000 x 1.5 = 3000 m^3/day
  3. Peak flow = 10000 x 200 x 1.5 / 86400 = 34.7 L/s
