Özet

Rainwater harvesting (YST) system is a method of collecting rainwater and storing this free rainwater before reuse for a specific purpose. This system is widely used in most regions of the world that are suitable for local climatic conditions. Application of rainwater collection systems at optimum cost and design with low payback period is important for the sustainability and preferability of the system. In this study, the appropriate tank size was calculated for the rainwater harvesting system (YST) design process for the rainwater harvesting that can be obtained from the square and roof of the Karabük University Social Life Center, which has a hard floor and roof surface in the high area. Based on the scenarios designed by taking the existing warehouse volume of the university into consideration, the optimum storage method was decided for the YST system to be installed, considering the construction and warehouse costs. The study is expected to guide system builders and decision makers in the process of determining the warehouse quantity and storage method, which are the preliminary processes in YST system design. © 2021, TUBITAK.
