摘要
Onsite rainwater harvesting is an inexpensive water source for indoor use; it is also a sustainable water management practice, since it contributes to the reduction of runoff volume and peaks, and to the control of non-point source pollution. The aim of this paper is to provide a method for sizing rainwater harvesting tanks based on the local daily rainfall record, the served family size, the roof collection area, the roof type, the in-house water uses, and other factors. Various methods used worldwide are presented and compared. The application of these methods is made using a 10-year daily rainfall record from a meteorological station near Kimmeria Village in Xanthi, Greece.
