The Main Objective Of This Topic Is To Highlighting The Use Of Pipe Distribution Network (PDN) Instead Of Canal Distribution Network (CDN) To Increase The Overall Project Efficiency Of Irrigation Project And Thereby Reducing The Stresses Due To Water Scarcity. For Achieving Maximum Benefits From PDN, Planning, Designing, And Construction Of PDN Should Be Done Carefully. In This Topic Guideline For Planning, Designing And Installment Requirements Of PDN System For Irrigation Are Provided. It Is Recommended That PDN System Could Be Economical And Feasible Over Conventional CDN Certain Extent And This System Is So Flexible That It Can Be Implemented As A New Scheme Or Used To Convert The Existing CDN.

 As Per MWRD Vision 20-20, Improve The Water Use
Efficiency of Irrigation System By 20%
 Increasing Demand of Water For Civilization &
Industrialization Reduces The Water Availability For
Irrigation Purpose
 Efficiency of Canal Distribution Network Is 49.1%
 Efficiency of Pipe Distribution Network Is 66.3%

4. 
 Chak Size 5 To 12 Ha.
 Equitable Water Distribution & Optimum Cost
 Alignment of Main Pipe Should Be Minimum
 Layout of Lateral Serve Max Area With Min. Length
 Sub Lateral- Considering Shape & Size of Chak.
GUIDELINES FOR PLANNING

5. 
 Velocity : 0.8-1.2 m/s
(Acceptable 0.6 m/s & Permissible 1.5 m/s)
 Min Driving Head : 1.2 m
 Effective Head : 0.6 m (Acceptable 0.3 m)
 Hf= L* (Q/CR)1.81
994.62 * D4.81

6. 
 Trash Screen : Restrict Entry of Debris, Floating
Matters
 Intake Chamber : To Collect Water From Main Canal
 Silt Trap : To Separate Silt Particles
 Air Valve : At every 300 m & summit location
(Diameter of Valve: 10% Dia. of Pipe)
 Anchor / Thrust Block : Change In Alignment & At
Every 200 m Interval
 Turnout : At Outlet of Lateral
 Electromagnetic Flow Meter : For Measuring Flow
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
(PROVISIONS)

7. 
 Hydraulic Testing : To Ensure Pipe Rating, Leakage-
Proof
 Sluice Valve : For Regulating flow, For Maintenance.
 Crop Compensation : Rupees 50000/ Ha.

9. 
 PDN system saves water over conventional canal
distribution network system.
 The maximum benefits of the PDN system can be
utilized if planning and design of PDN system
should be done carefully.
 When land cost is comparatively high then adoption
of PDN system is more suitable.
