DESIGN AND SIZING OF A SURFACE WATER PUMPING SYSTEM USING SOLAR POWER AT MANCHILA VILLAGE IN MARA REGIO

BACKGROUND  INFORMATION

Manchila village is located at Serengeti Municipal in Mara Region. Majority of the people of Manchila village are pastoralists and farmers.

Water supply to the village is from a reservoir(Dam). Water from this dam is used for domestic, livestock watering and Agricultural activities such as Irrigation. Sharing of water resource with livestock is not healthier, because it led to the outbreak of water borne disease like typhoid etc.

There is a need of separating the main use of water

PROBLEM STATEMENT

Sharing of water resource between human beings and livestock from the same source is challenge to Manchila villagers and has led to an increase of outbreak of water borne diseases

MAIN OBJECTIVES

The main objective of this project is to design and sizing a surface water pumping system using solar power from the dam to an overhead tank

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES

  • Estimate, solar, irradiation, temperature and humidity of the site.
  • Design and size surface water pumping system powered by solar.
  • Develop and test surface water pumping system.
