1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Geography

Thailand covers an area of about the same size as France and is situated on the land side south of China. The country lies to the west, north and east of the Gulf of Thailand, an arm of the South China Sea.

The country stretches from the north to south from 6–20 degrees latitude, north of the equator. On the southeast, it is bounded by Kampuchea; on the east and northeast by Laos; on the west, north and northwest by Burma; on the southwest by the Andaman Sea, a part of the Indian Ocean; and on the southern extremity by Peninsular Malaysia.

1.2 The consultancy

A consultancy was implemented to identify and evaluate the different problems in the fishery sites visited as they pertain to the engineering aspects of the aquaculture industry. Under the consultant's terms of reference, the assignment involved short visits to selected fresh-water and brackishwater fishery stations in the country, such as Chachoengsao, Phuket, Samut Sakhorn, Songkhla and Satul.

2. CONDITIONS OF STATIONS VISITED

2.1 Chachoengsao Macrobrachium Research and Training Centre

The centre is a central giant freshwater prawn (M. rosenbergii) research centre located in the Bangpakong district of Chachoengsao province, some 75 km from Bangkok.

The hatchery complex consists of:

40 - 10.5 ton concrete larval rearing tanks, 1.0 × 1.5 × 1.0 m on ground

60 - 45 ton concrete mixing/phytoplankton culturing tanks, 5.0 × 10.0 × 1.0 m on ground

54 - 160 ton experimental/research tanks, 10.0 × 20.0 × 1.0 m underground, with hollow-concrete block walls and earth bottoms

14 - 1600 m2 broodstock earth ponds (1 rai), 1.5 m deep

Freshwater and brackishwater earth basins, infrastructures and support facilities all in a 31-acre (12.55 ha) area which is adjacent to the national highway and the Bangpakong river.

Brackishwater supply for the Chachoengsao centre comes from the Bangpakong river, a fairly large river with tidal flow. Limitation in full hatchery production is caused by the periodic fluctuations in the water level of the Bangpakong stretch at the farm site and from annual and seasonal variations in salinity. Water is pumped or is allowed to flow during high tides through a concrete gate and into an earthern sedimentation basin through open canals.

Water use rate for maximum production is 210 tons daily. Possible use of municipal tap water was mentioned to substitute hauling by trucks, water from Chonburi, 17 km away.

A test bore was drilled at the hatchery site to a depth of 53 meters in 1978. Chemical analysis of the water from the test well showed the water to be high in iron and traces of heavy metals as manganese, magnesium, and zinc. When this water was once used as culture water in the larval tanks, larval kills of 100 percent were experienced1.

2.2 Phuket Fishery Station

The station is a marine centre located in the only island province of Thailand off the west coast of peninsular Thailand along the Andaman Sea at about 7 degrees 57 minutes north latitude and 98 degrees 24 minutes east longitude.

The island of Phuket receives about 95 inches (2.4 m) of rainfall annually most of which occurs from April to November. It is about 1 424 km2 for the main island and 37 km2 for the satellites. A causeway links Phuket to Phangnga in the north.

There are two seasons in Phuket; rainy season from May to October and the hot season from November to April. The highest temperature of Phuket is 35.5 degrees Centigrate and the lowest is 21 degrees Centigrade.

The Phuket Marine Biological Research Center, another fishery station in this locality, is located 10 km south of the city.

The hatchery complex which is 4 km south of Phuket city is located by the sea and consists of:

50 - 1 ton experimental concrete tanks

2 - 80 ton broodstock concrete tanks (for seabass, grouper, etc.)

3 - 50 ton broodstock concrete tanks (for P. monodon)

2 - 20 ton and one 40-ton altal tanks for diatom culture

5 - 100 ton tanks for zooplankton culture

6 - 40 ton larval concrete rearing tanks

1 - 150 ton concrete water reservoir

2 sand filter

20 - 1 ton circular fiberglass tanks

25 - ½ ton circular fiberglass tanks

2.5 ton cold storage, infrastructure and support facilities

Current research programmes are the seed production of Penaeus monodon and coastal aquaculture techniques and resources survey.

2.3 The Songkhla Coastal Aquaculture Development Centre

The centre is a brackishwater and freshwater seed production unit which started operation in 1974. During the visit, large-scale construction of additional tanks, support facilities and infrastructures for a proposed training and research programme has been going on.

The Songkhla Coastal Aquaculture Development Centre is a fishery station of the Department of Fisheries located in Kao Seng in Songkhla province, in southern Thailand. Station physical facilities are an administration building in a 0.8 hectares hatchery buildings in a total area of 8 hectares, consisting of:

8 - 50-ton concrete larval/broodstock indoor tanks for P. monodon

6 - 20-ton outdoor concrete tanks each with a biological filter

2 - Outdoor concrete broodstock tanks

8 - 30-ton outdoor elevated concrete tanks for the culture of plankton

10 - 4-ton concrete fry tanks for Lates calcarifer, 0.5 m deep, with a biological filter for each

4 - circular, 20-ton outdoor concrete tanks for Lates calcarifer broodstock, and

14 - plankton tanks, 2 × 1 × 10 m

Seven kilometers from the Kao Seng station is the 20.5 hectares Tasaun shrimp farm at Songkhla lake, with ponds designed for shrimp grow-out. Fish nets and cages for the rearing of marine fish and for broodstock maturation of the seabass, grouper and the red snapper are located at Ban Boh Keng substation, 1.5 km from the main hatchery complex.

There has been a continuing research and studies on the refinement of mass production techniques of the marine shrimp, P. monodon and of the freshwater prawn, M. rosenbergii, and on fish nutrition research. The station has also continuing research and studies on seabass, mullet, oyster and the green mussel.

Training facilities are adequate for the training of shrimp/fish farmers and fisheries officers of the Department of Fisheries.

2.4 Samut Sakhorn

The Samut Sakhorn fishery station is a brackishwater shrimp farm in Samut Sakhorn province, southwest Thailand, at latitude 13 degrees 31 minutes north, and longitude 100 degrees 16 minutes east.

It was established in 1974 in a 90-hectare mangrove area bounded by the Chaopaya and the Tha Chin rivers. The station has the following ponds:

6 - 10 rai1 (16 000 m2) earth ponds

6 - 6.37 rai (10 192 m2) earth ponds

8 - 1 rai (1 600 m2) earth ponds

These are all nursery/rearing ponds for shrimps, utilizing about 19 percent of the total site area.

A man-made 800-meter open earth canal was built to connect the two rivers. This canal serves as a channel for water supply and drainage and is also used as a navigable waterway during high tides. The station is reached from the main highway by crossing the Chaopaya river and negotiating a road dike along the main canal.

The reference station for tide prediction in this area is Pak Nam Tha Chin in the west Gulf of Thailand. There are three types of tides in the Gulf: the diurnal, the semidiurnal and the mixed tide. The tide at Samut Sakhorn is a semidiurnal with irregularity.

It was noted that there has not been established a bench mark for tidal elevation.

Samut Sakhorn fishery station was established to provide grow-out facilities for P. monodon fry received from Phuket in addition to meeting the objectives outlined in a training programme such as:

  1. to conduct research in brackishwater culture in the rearing and production of P. monodon

  2. to conduct research on feeding techniques

  3. to provide training to fish farmers on various aquaculture techniques on the culture of P. monodon and P. merguiensis

Current research and training programmes have been going on in the subjects of mangrove environment and ecology and pond improvement with use of new technology. A plan has been slated for the utilization of the mangrove reserve for the culture of crabs, mussels and clams.

1 Rai is the Thai unit of area equivalent to 1 600 m2.

2.5 La Ngu, Satul

The Satul brackishwater fishery station at La Ngu district in Satul province is at the east of southern Thailand facing the Andaman Sea and sheltered by an island group in an area by the shore of about 250 acres (101 ha).

The hatchery complex consists of the following:

5 - 100-ton outdoor concrete tanks for finfish broodstock

10 - 50-ton outdoor concrete broodstock/larval tanks for shrimp

20 - 15-ton concrete algal tanks, and

6 - 3-rai (4 800 m2) earth ponds for grow-out

A wide area has been reserved nearby for the construction of 50 rearing pond units.

3. IDENTIFIED ENGINEERING PROBLEMS AND SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS

3.1 Chachoengsao

3.1.1 Problems

  1. Some earth ponds have been abandoned. These are the grow-out ponds which were built on permeable soil.

  2. There is a reduction in production during the dry season months due to lack of freshwater to control river water salinity during the rainy season.

  3. Ground water quality and quantity are not suitable and adequate.

  4. Aeration by diffuser aerators are hardly acceptable as there was observed oil carry-over from the blowers to the culture tanks.

  5. The present pump performs at low efficiency as the discharge pipe flows only ⅓ full.

  6. The diesel electric generator should have a better constructed base. It was noted that the generator was without a governor. The floor slab of the engine room has settled appreciably.

  7. Except for sedimentation, pretreatment of culture water by filtering through the existing “sand filter” is not done.

  8. The biological filter which was tried experimentally did not work as it should.

  9. The Artemia hatching tanks are rectangular fiber glass containers and are improperly located.

  10. There is no engineering staff that takes care of the physical plant maintenance and repair.

3.1.2 Suggested improvements

(a) For the grow-out earth ponds which were built on permeable soil, a means shall be provided to retain water or to reduce seepage losses. The methods that may be used for sealing the ponds include soil compaction, use of clay blankets and use of waterproof linings. Ponds built on permeable, coarse-grained soils lack the proper amount of clay to form a seal. A 0.30 m thick clay blanket containing at least 20 percent clay shall cover the pond bottom and bottom and pond sides. Before the blanket material is laid, all rocks, tree roots and vegetation are removed. Remove 0.30 m of depth of the old pond bottom before the blanket material is laid. Compaction is necessary to attain maximum density. Wetting and drying will cause cracking of the clay blanket due to the expansion and contraction of the clay with changes in moisture content. This problem is eliminated by spreading a layer of fine gravel over the clay blanket. Mechanical protection is thus provided.

A deep trench can be cut around the perimeter of the pond at the base of the dike and this trench is sealed with the clayey material. Water-proofing material such as polyethylene film joined by heat sealing or with special adhesives is laid over the inside dike slopes and a layer of fine soil of at least 0.15 m thick is laid over the sheets. The pond side slopes are made flatter not to exceed 3:1 ratio of horizontal to vertical if the film is to be covered with a protective soil layer. The edges of the liner extend above the high waterline and the lower edge anchored into the perimeter trench built along the entire pond.

Ponds with sandy soil can often be sealed with time by spreading manure or cowdung cover evenly over the entire pond bottom.

Trenches cut for drain lines or for gates are common sources of leaks. Concrete collars are poured around the drain pipes and anti-seep walls are provided at the gate wall sides. Backfill is carefully placed by tamping.

A short visit to the Sa Ha Marine ponds in Klong Dan, Samut Prakarn, revealed to the writer a large excess of clayey soil material from the ponds which were being excavated. This material would make good clay blankets for the Chachoengsao earth ponds.

(b) Fujimura (1975) states that the limitations in production is caused by the seasonal salinity variations of the Bangpakong river which can be overcome by making use of the 54 to 160-ton research/experimental tanks as storage reservoirs, holding 8 640 (54 × 160) tons of water at a time. Through proper mixing at higher or lower salinity levels depending on the salinity of the stored river water and, with proper water management, a maximum of 8.4 runs (cycles) are possible annually.

The earth bottoms of the 54 160-ton tanks were observed to be of soil with potential acid sulphate characteristics. These tanks if used as storage for high (or for low) salinity water shall be bottom-sealed by pouring a reinforced concrete (base) slab, 0.15 m thick.

(c) A test bore at the Bangpakong hatchery site was drilled to a depth of 53 m in 1978. Chemical analysis of the water from the Bangpakong artesian well showed the water to be in heavy metal content, and when used as culture water in the larval tanks, larval kills of up to 100 percent were experienced.

No information was available on well drawdown and should the quantity be adequate, pretreatment methods for well water may be resorted to in the planning effort, like aeration for the removal of ferrites, softening, degassing, etc. Not much information was received to substantiate the reported problem of fish kills using deep well water and a programme to identify this problem may be needed before measures to pretreat water can be recommended.

(d) To prevent oil carry-over to the tanks, it may be necessary to change the old, worn out blowers as they are the cause for all carry-over. The lip seals should be checked and if necessary, replace them if a change to a new blower is not possible.

A check on air blower impeller internal clearance for “slip” prediction is a must for high air handling efficiency. Dealer-certified repair shops or factory trained personnel may be requested to do the repair job.

The air intake filter should be relocated so it shall be outside the blower shed and away from the exhaust gases. It shall be at the shady side of the building and protected from rain by a hood.

The installation of individual oil filters and traps near each culture tank is a very good solution to the oil presence problem. Periodic cleaning of these traps have to be done and this activity is recorded in a logbook for blower operation and maintenance to be kept by the physical plant personnel.

(e) Where the suction pipe is larger than the pump's intake, the use of an eccentric reducer prevents the formation of air pockets that reduce the pump's capacity.

The suction line, being a very long one, should be checked for slope. When the suction is long and the water level in the river is below the pump's centreline, the suction line must slope up to the pump. It may be a good idea to relocate the pump nearer the suction well.

It was observed that the pump was not installed properly inasmuch as there was no mounting base and the electric motor prime mover was exposed to the elements. It is suggested that the pump be relocated so as to be nearer the suction well and a pump shed be constructed.

An elbow should never be placed in a horizontal position near the suction nozzle. Use an eccentric reducer, two pipe diameters long between a long radius elbow and the intake.

(f) The diesel engine was installed on a very weak base which settled and thus put the directly coupled electric generator out of alignment. Provide a heavy and rigid concrete foundation for the engine.

Install a governor as this is necessary to compensate for loading effects on the diesel engines. Diesel engines are usually built for a certain load and it does perform efficiently when run at full load or at not less than two-thirds load. Engine wears fast at overload.

Most modern engines operate well with little attention. Consequently, the operators become lax and they forget to do the necessary work as keeping a logbook for operation and preventive maintenance. It is advisable to use one.

(g) The production of abundant and suitable water for storage in reservoirs can be achieved by the use of a gravity sand filter. Though simple in its configuration, it can make a number of changes in the character of the river water, if properly designed. The existing filter does not have the capacity to meet the demand for water quantity and quality. A new filter should be designed and constructed.

Water should be pumped from the Bangpakong river or is allowed to flow into the settling basin through concrete gates and concrete-lined canals. The settling basin should be properly designed for rate and efficiency of sedimentation and ease of cleaning. The sand filter should be constructed near the settling basin, elevated, and water is pumped from the settling basin into the filter. Filtered water flows by gravity into the storage underground tanks through the existing open channels or concrete flumes on the dikes. An elevated water tank will be used to provide water for backwashing of the filter. Wash water is wasted through open drains to the river. Water post treatment will not be necessary.

(h) The present cultural practice common in fish culture is the flow-through system for improving water quality but when suitable supply is used to capacity, the need of biological filter should be considered. Some considerable work is yet to be done in this kind of filter design as certain parameters have to be known as ammonia load, total water flow, retention time, filter medium. The depth is usually not less than a meter in order to provide the head when there is clogging of the filter medium. This medium is usually not less than 2 cm in diameter to avoid clogging. Back-washing is therefore avoided when there is no clogging.

(i) Mass production of the brine shrimp larvae can be fully achieved if cylindrical tanks with sloping bottom are used and are located in a separate, roofed shed.

(j) The biologists and hatchery personnel have some familiarity with the electrical, piping and the rest of the physical plant and they may be able to do repair and maintenance work, but hatchery management requires that there should be a complement of engineering personnel to take care of plant maintenance and repair.

It is suggested that a shed should be constructed to house all the larval and fry tanks located outdoors so that there will be no work interruption during times of bad weather and during a hot day.

3.2 Phuket

3.2.1 Problems

  1. Blower installation and operation for aeration need to be improved.

  2. Improvements in the electrical installation are necessary for operator's safety.

3.2.2 Suggested improvements

(a) Intake location inside a machinery room is a common installation practice in all centres. Intakes should be located outside the machinery room, usually at the north or south side of the shed or below the building overhang.

Considerable noise observed at the inlet air opening which is objectionable, is reduced by the use of silencers provided there is no pressure drop across.

(b) Hatchery personnel and technicians can aid in keeping the electrical system in the work area in a safe operating condition by constant visual inspection of all electrical equipment and devices.

A potential hazard to the operator exists when electrical equipment is not grounded. A ground system may be made of gauge six bare copper wire connecting the equipment and a copper clad steel rod driven into soil at a depth of at least 2.5 m. Water pipes or well casings serve as grounds just as well.

All switches and convenience outlets are of the waterproof type if these are installed in a wet work area, otherwise if plain switches and outlets are used, these shall be installed in the dry area and within a convenient distance from the hatchery tanks.

3.3 Songkhla

3.3.1 Problems

(a) Pollution from a fish meal plant which is located near the Kao Seng station continues to be a hazard especially that which results from liquid effluents that stem from regular washing of fish pits, etc. and from the water used in fish unloading system. Reports received by the writer stated a continuing discharge of acidified and organic effluent to the harbour, although this has been kept to a minimum.

Odour emissions from this fish meal factory are never controlled and reports stated this pollution from fish vapour emissions is in larger amounts during the day seasons.

(b) Reports indicate that the underground water is not suitable for culture use. Freshwater for domestic and hatchery use is taken from the municipal water supply.

(c) The low tidal range at the shrimp farm at nearby Songkhla lake necessitated the installation of two propeller pumps, in 0.40 m diameter pipes. Bypass gates were installed for tidal flow, which is hardly half a meter in range during the dry season.

(d) There is no supply of freshwater in the shrimp farms and control of water salinity is not achieved.

3.3.2 Suggested improvements

(a) Air pollution from vapour emissions from the nearby fish meal factory although disagreeable is not considered hazardous to health. Efforts to eliminate the disagreeable odour are generally unnecessary and expensive in any case.

Much can be done in the area of minimizing or totally preventing organic effluents from being dumped into the harbour. There should be developed strict, tight national regulations for the control of industrial wastes. In a properly managed factory, the liquid pollution is kept to a minimum by thickeners and settling tanks that provide the method for recovery of solids. Definitely, the discharge of industrial acidic effluentsinto the harbour should be prohibited by government authorities.

(b) A consultation, if possible, be established between the water supply authorities and the office of fisheries in order to improve the quantity of water for the fish farms.

(c) The use of propeller pumps is warranted by the situation of low head and high discharge. The pumps are quite small and small propellers need to run faster but will require larger power. If the pump diameter is made larger, the propeller tip velocity increases with increase in propeller diameter and cavitation results. Bigger propellers must therefore turn slower.

The pump diameter may be increased and the speed of rotation decreased. The power requirement for this case is appreciably reduced and the operation becomes more economical.

(d) It is necessary that water salinity must be controlled with suitable and adequate freshwater supply that must be provided.

3.4 Samut Sakhorn

3.4.1 Problems

(a) Observation and study of the tidal conditions near the site is necessary to make the most of tidal flow in future designs of the ponds.

(b) A deep well, 200 m deep and using a 6-in (0.15 m) casing provides freshwater for domestic and farm use. The ground water, however, contains iron in solution.

(c) A two-bladed propeller pump runs at 3 400 rpm and this pump delivers water from the brackishwater source to the ponds. Water from the Tha Chin and Chaopaya rivers appears turbid. Secchi disk readings are at an average of from 43 to 59 cm during the dry season months and from 21 to 35 cm during the rainy season for both rivers. Salinity readings are at values of from 16 to 33 ppt.

(d) The width of the peripheral canal in relation to pond side dimension is small. The central pond platform does not contain water at all times as it should for culture of natural food.

3.4.2 Suggested improvements

(a) Bench marks for tidal elevation must be established by running a closed-level loop. These will serve as base reference for future vertical surveys and pond bottom elevations determined from these bench marks. The observed difference in time of about 120 minutes between the occurrence of the high (and low) tides at the port of reference and at the farm site may also indicate an appreciable tidal ratio and so efforts should be done to determine this ratio. Its use rectifies actual tidal conditions for heights at the farm site.

Visual estimates by the staff give a rough value of 3 m difference between the low tide and the average ground elevation. Assuming that soil conditions and funds permit, excavations may be carried to such depth to make full use of tidal flow.

(b) Many ground waters contain iron in solution in such quantities that may make such water unsuitable for use. In water relatively free from organic matter, iron is precipitated by aeration, and the precipitated iron removed by filtering through a sand filter. Conditions that are necessary for successful water treatment may be determined by experiment. The elevated water tank can adequately provided the head necessary to operate the spray nozzles or tricklers and the sand filter.

(c) In the case of Samut Sakhorn or for most farms, the use of axial flow propeller pumps is warranted by the situation of low head and high discharge. The pumps are small in diameter and so in order to obtain a high discharge, the pumps are run at high speed using high power. Cavitation does not necessarily result with small pumps as that used in Samut Sakhorn. If the pumps are made larger in diameter, the slower it must turn and so power requirement would be small, and the discharge is large. This would result in an economical pumping operation. The slower the propeller must turn the lesser would the fry mortality be as they pass through the pump.

(d) The peripheral canals should be made wider so that the canal width ratio to pond side dimension is about 1/7. The central pond platform should be excavated to a desired depth that there shall always be about 0.30 to 0.40 m depth of water for growth of the natural food.

3.5 Satul

3.5.1 Problems

  1. Fouling of the 6-in (0.15 m) suction pipe is an ever present problem.

  2. There was observed vibration of the engine foundation. The engine cooling fan was not provided with a protective cover.

  3. A plan to install another pump was mentioned to possibly supplement the existing one and at the same time provide backup.

  4. Leaks through the sides of the concrete gates were seen.

  5. Pond maintenance and inspection of the cultured species are quite difficult to do regularly inasmuch as the embankments are very high.

  6. Tidal range is in the order of 3 to 4 m. There may be difficulty in the manipulation of the gate slabs during times of high water.

3.5.2 Suggested improvements

  1. It is recommended that the diameter of the suction pipe be larger than the suction flange diameter of the pump. This is of advantage when high suction lift exists. Suction head loss due to fouling will be minimized.

  2. The foundation should be made heavier to reduce vibrations. It should also be rigid enough to avoid any wear on the bearings due to misalignment. Safety measures require that a protective screen cover should be provided over the cooling fan.

  3. For efficient handling of large volumes of water, a mixed flow volute pump is recommended.

  4. Provisions made to prevent undermining or washing around a concrete gate structure are important considerations in gate design and construction. Care must be taken in backfilling the side walls. To obtain the required length of creep for water under or around the structure, and to obtain this length, cut-off toe walls and wing walls must extend well into the bed. The depth of the cut-off toe walls at the inlet to the structure is equal to 1/2 the depth of water on the floor when in clay soils. The path of water percolating below and around the sides is made equal to 4 to 5 times the full depth of water on the floor of the gate. Anti-seep collars may be provided at the sides.

  5. Berms are provided at the pond side of a high dike or embankment to serve as a walkway to facilitate maintenance and inspection by the pond operator. Berms are made equal to about a meter in width and shall be a little above the pond water level.

  6. A simple gate mechanism of the windlass type may be provided especially at the main gate in order to facilitate easy control of inflow and outflow of pond water in and out of the ponds.

ANNEX A
AERATION

It seems clear that the problems of aeration existing in one particular centre visited are in many respects similar and so one particular solution to a problem that exists in one site may apply to a similar problem that is encountered in another.

The following guidelines give some standard and accepted practice with regards to air supply for diffuser aerators:

  1. Existing installations for all stations may have to be modified to that which could result in cleaner air and improved blower efficiency. Generally, the air intake should be located outside and at the coolest part of the building. Outside intake is usually best because the cooler air takes up less volume and the machine compresses a greater weight of air on each stroke. Efficiency is increased and the machine stays cooler. The outside intake filter should be protected from rain by a hood and from solids by a screen cage. The north side of the shed under an overhang or the shady side of the building is generally the best location of the air intake.

  2. Intake filters should be provided and these should be inspected and cleaned periodically. Air intake filters remove the dust and grit and the removal of these substances is important to protect the blower from wear on parts. Clean air is also provided. A logbook of maintenance and operation should be kept and this must show when the filter was cleaned last.

  3. Blowers are used in preference to a compressor as blowers deliver air at high volume and at low pressure.

  4. The usual source of oil is the blower. This is due to blower temperature and, at high pressure, oil is vaporized. This oil must be removed before it goes to the culture water.

  5. At least two blowers are required to assure continuous service and each with a separate power source. The blowers are connected so that only one operates at a time. When its output falls below the specified amount, the second blower cuts into service. A pressure actuated device shall be installed to trigger a relay-type alarm should there be an interruption of air supply. A secondary shaft may be fitted to each blower for an on-line gas or diesel engine in case of electrical failure.

Figures 2 and 3 show a home-brew design of a manometer pressure-measuring device which may be used to trigger an alarm when the pressure drops at a certain extent or when there is a loss in air pressure.

The inverted bell is cut from a short piece of PVC pipe, 4 inches (0.10 m) in diameter. This bell dips into a reservoir made out from a 6-inch (0.15 m) or bigger PVC pipe and contains water which acts as a seal. To the bell is attached a brass rod that holds it in position. A calibrated spring is connected to the rod to balance the bell, and a pair of contacts attached for the alarm mechanism.

The pressure is indicated by the difference in height of the liquid in the bell and reservoir. With the atmospheric pressure in the reservoir and tube at level 0, both surfaces of the gage liquid stand at that level (normal position). With the increase in pressure, the gauge liquid in the bell drops a distance dy and rises a distance h in the reservoir. If A and a are the cross-sectional areas of the reservoir and the tube respectively, and specific gravity S for water equals unity,

A × dy = a × h(1)

By the principle of variation of pressure with depth and starting at 1, in terms of feet of water,

O + hx(s) + dy = p/w(2)

The value p/w is the operating (maximum) pressure inside the bell, expressed in feet (m) of water. Simultaneous solution of the above equations gives h and dy. Areas A and a are the cross-sectional areas of the 6" (0.15 m) and 4" (0.10 m), reservoir and bell, respectively.

The values h and dy determines the length of the bell (and reservoir). As an example, for the Chachoengsao station, which uses a medium pressure Sutorbilt blower, Type 4M8, 78 cmf capacity at 1500 rpm, the operating pressure is 7 psi (0.492 kg/cm2), the following computations for the determination of the length of the bell is,

0.7854 × 62 × dy=0.7854 × 42 × h (1)
36 × dy=16 × h
Starting at 1, in terms of feet of water,
0 + h × 1 + dy = p/w=7/0.434 = 16.12 (2)
0 + 36 × dy/16 + dy=16.12
dy=16.12 × 16/52
dy=4.96 in. (12.95 cm)
h = 36 × 4.96/16=1.96 in. (27.94 cm)
h + dy = 11.96 + 4.96=16.92 in. (40.53 cm)

A practical length for the inverted bell would be 24 in (0.60 m) and that of the reservoir, 30 in (0.76 m).

Figure 4 shows a sketch of the manometer-automatic alarm for the Chachoengsao fishery station. The positioning of the electrical contacts and the related wiring for the alarm is shown. A no-pressure situation triggers a battery-operated alarm

ANNEX B
P U M P S

Centrifugal pumps account for the majority of pumps used in all the fishery stations visited. Where conditions of low head and high discharge exist, the propeller type pump is used.

There were some sub-standard installations observed and it appears that no station keeps a log of operation, maintenance and inspection activities.

Pump foundations should be heavy enough to minimize vibrations and be rigid to avoid any misalignment. Proper alignment of the shaft reduces wear on the bearings, packing and wearing rings.

Generally, for pumps which operate with suction lifts, the suction line diameter is made one or two sizes larger than the pump flange size to insure the maximum suction head. An eccentric reducer is placed between the line and the pump flange.

It is desirable to place a length of straight piping between the long-radius and the suction flange.

Where in all installations, the discharge pipe empties above water level, no backflow is experienced but a gate valve should be used to regulate the flow.

Since all the centrifugal pumps are not submerged in all of the installations, provisions should be made to prime it, for pumps which are not self-priming. Water from the elevated reservoir or from the municipal water supply may be admitted to the pump and suction line.

Inspection requires that the pump should be dismantled periodically and examined for excessive wear or corrosion. The foot valve should be inspected regularly as it may become jammed or its strainer may become clogged with fouling. The suction lines get clogged with barnacles and when this happens the pump operates with insufficient available suction head. Under these conditions the flow and the discharge pressure may be reduced.

Air leakage into the suction line or pump casing may be present. The joints should be checked for all leakage which may occur at the joints or at the packing boxes.

Pump performance is best determined by the measurement of its capacity and the most practical method is to discharge water into a tank and the change in volume may be found for a given time interval.

A test for speed is important since all other measurements are based upon it. Instruction books from the manufacturers give practically all the data for maximum pump performance and also the directions for the maintenance and operation of such pump.

The operation of propeller pumps at the Songkhla station were observed and they were found to be best pumps for situations of low head and high discharge. Since power requirement increases with a small discharge, the propeller and pipe must be made so that the pump will turn at slower rate. It appears that the 100 hp diesel prime mover is too big a power for a small discharge through a 16-inch pipe.
