Area of Science:

  • Environmental Engineering
  • Fluid Mechanics
  • Computational Hydraulics

Background:

  • European legislation now mandates strict control over wastewater discharges into natural environments.
  • Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) present unique hydraulic challenges requiring precise management strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate and validate 1D and 3D hydraulic modeling techniques for combined sewer overflows (CSOs).
  • To develop and test computational tools for accurately simulating CSO hydraulic behavior.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a specialized 1D computational tool for modeling the hydraulic complexity of side weirs in CSOs.
  • Testing and application of the Fluent calculation code for 3D hydraulic modeling of CSOs.
  • Validation of both 1D and 3D modeling approaches using experimental data from a small-scale model.

Main Results:

  • A functional 1D computational tool was designed to handle the intricacies of side weir hydraulics.
  • The Fluent code proved effective for 3D hydraulic simulations of CSO structures.
  • Both modeling methods demonstrated good agreement with experimental data, confirming their validity.

Conclusions:

  • 1D and 3D hydraulic modeling are essential tools for controlling CSO behavior under new European regulations.
  • The developed 1D tool and tested 3D Fluent code provide reliable methods for managing wastewater discharge.
  • Validated modeling approaches support compliance with environmental legislation governing CSOs.
