The economical flow velocity in the pipe line depends on the roughness coefficient, energy cost , construction cost and present worth factor. A theoretical study was done to study the influence of above factors on economical flow velocity. When the system consists of a single pipe and a p ump the ec onomical flow velocity uoes b~ar a definite relation to tha diameter for a given set of costs. b ut in a distribution system , economical flow velocity depends on the hyd raulics of the networK a lso. Statistical analysis was done to study the distribution of economical f low velocity tor each diameter and Kolmogorov - Smirnov test was used to test the goodness of fit UR - http://203.159.5.9/ait-thesis/detail.php?q=B20577 ER -
