Can u please help me answer my question?... How can we know which equation should we use to calculate the population projection equation? If its log growth, linear growth.. or whatever
shouldn't we consider (10 years*365 d) for calculating volume at peak instead of 1 day? because at the end that you were explaining how to calculate the total volume, you mentioned that for volume at emergency we need to consider the population at year 10. So doesn't it need to be consistent for all three types of volumes?
Hi, good question. I believe the 10 years is already accounted for when solving for the population P_t after 10 years. So you wouldn't consider that when calculating the peak volume. On the FE exam, make sure you do this and not consider that 25% I discussed. So the FE answer for peak volume would be: V_peak = 364,446 L/day (1 day) = 364,446 L. The volume for emergency isn't typically tested on the FE. But if it is, the problem statement would clearly state what you should assume. From what I've seen: the volume for an emergency is typically taken as the average daily demand volume. The fire volume is simply going to be: V_fire = fire flow rate x duration of flow Hope this helps.
Great explanation
Thank you!

i know at least in this example, it was stated in the question but im not sure if its not stated
What other resources can we use to study this section? PLEASE!!!
Hi, the water resources section? Or this specific reservoir sizing topic?
Fundamental principles (population projections, demand calculations , reactors, etc)
@@nicolevalverde9171 I'll see what I can find, please send me an email at help@directhub.net
@@directhubfeexam sure thank you so much i just email you!!

@@directhubfeexam thanks a lot. That was a great and comprehensive explanation as usual. I will do accordingly for sure👍
Hi Saeedeh Lotfi, what resources did you use to study for this section? I can't find any resource!
Is this relevant for Civil FE?
No not really.
