This depends entirely on why the water is dirty. If the water is contaminated with chemical pollutants or pathogenic organisms it could make you very sick if you drank it. If on the other hand the water is merely contaminated with clay or silt it is unlikely that there would be many negative health effects. As a general rule however, avoid drinking any water that you do not know to be safe.

Clean water is added to a tank full of dirty water. After some time the tank is full of clean water. Dirty water disappears. What is the principle and how does it work?
The principle is 'dilution': with the first addition of clean water to dirty water, the dirty water becomes less dirty because it is diluted by the clean water. With the continued addition of clean water to dirty water, eventually the dirty water will be completely diluted and there will be no dirty water left; it will all be replaced by clean water.
