I need to bring water from a creek at about 2400 metres elevation for 1000 metres down a steep slope to a drill sump located at about 2050 metres elevation.
I'm planning to use a 2 inch HDPE open pipe for this and am trying to determine how much water this will provide, and if I need to worry...
I'm not a pumping expert but need to figure out whether it would be possible to lower the level of an alpine lake by pumping so that a water intake can be installed.
Facts:
1. The lake is about 700 m long, 200 m wide.
2. The inflow is about 2 m3/s.
3. I need to lower the lake level 10 metres...
