Wave Mechanics and Hydrodynamic Wave Forces in Drinking Water under the Lake Pipeline in Burdur Lake – Turkey

摘要

Burdur Lake is one of the largest lakes of Turkey consisting of about 23 700 ha. Unfortunately, Burdur Lake area and the lake depth decrease each year. Additionally, the salinity increased twice in 30 years because of the aridity. Burdur Municipality Drinking Water Pipeline had been constructed under Burdur Lake in 2002. Groundwater drained from deep wells was flowed to Burdur city under Burdur Lake. Burdur drinking water pipe line under Burdur Lake was broken to pieces during the storms in 2008, 2010 and 2013.
