Sažetak
The aim and objective of this paper is to appraise the ability of the Warka water concept to collect a drinkable water from horizontal and vertical types of the precipitation. Warka water is a concept that was designed by Italian designer Arturio Vittori and Swiss architect Andreas Vogler in order to provide a drinkable water for people in Africa [1]. According to their design idea, in Laboratory for hydraulic engineering at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, the scale model of the one type of the design called Warka tower is built [2]. The model is installed outside in the vicinity of the automatic meteorological station (Vantage Pro2 manufactured by Davis instruments, USA) at Kampus Trsat in Rijeka, Croatia. In order to analyse the Warka water concept ability, meteorological variables and the amount of collected water by Warka tower are measured. Meteorological variables are collected in a time step of the Δt=5 minutes for a period of two months. Analyses have shown a very good ability of the Warka tower to collect every type of usable precipitation in order to maximise the amount of the collected water.
