Chapter 1 Laws of Conservation
In fluid dynamics, the continuity equation states that, in any steady
state process, the rate at which mass enters a system is equal to the rate at
which mass leaves the system.
The differential form of the continuity equation is:

u is the flow velocity vector field.
In this context, this equation is also one of Euler equations (fluid dynamics).
The Navier–Stokes equations form a vector continuity equation describing
the conservation of linear momentum.
If ρ is a constant, as in the case of incompressible flow, the mass continuity
equation simplifies to a volume continuity equation:[1]
which means that the divergence of velocity field is zero everywhere.
Physically, this is equivalent to saying that the local volume dilation rate is
zero.

flow is the same at every section
of the channel. Uniform flow can

Hydraulic Jump
When the flow is
supercritical in an
upstream section of a
channel and is then
forced to become
subcritical in a
downstream section, a
rather abrupt change in
depth usually occurs and
considerable energy loss
accompanies the
process. This flow
phenomenon, is known
as a hydraulic jump.

Conservation of Energy (3)

Slide - 60 Comprehensive Sewer Collection System Analysis


Conservation of Energy
Conservation of energy involves a balance in total energy, expressed as
head, between any upstream point of flow and a corresponding downstream
point, including head losses caused by friction and the viscous dissipation of
turbulence at bends and other appurtenances (i.e., form losses or minor
losses). The energy equation states that the incoming energy plus the energy
gain (addition) equals the outgoing energy plus the energy loss.

Chapter 5 Biochemical Oxygen Demand
Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is
the amount of dissolved oxygen needed
by aerobic biological organisms in a
body of water to break down organic
material present in a given water sample
at certain temperature over a specific
time period. The term also refers to a
chemical procedure for determining this
amount. This is not a precise
quantitative test, although it is widely
used as an indication of the organic
quality of water.[1] The BOD value is
most commonly expressed in milligrams
of oxygen consumed per litre of sample
during 5 days of incubation at 20 °C and
is often used as a robust surrogate of
the degree of organic pollution of water

Passive Layer
The passive layer of sediment is

unchanged during any simulation. It
effectively just acts as a constriction on

The active layer is made up of mobile
sediment that can be eroded,
transported, and deposited during a
simulation.

Slide - 77 Comprehensive Sewer Collection System Analysis


Chapter 5 Hydrogen Sulphide

Slide - 78 Comprehensive Sewer Collection System Analysis


Chapter 5 Hydrogen Sulphide
HYDROGEN SULFIDE PARAMETERS
These parameters are available when the H2S option is selected. Hydrogen Sulfide results are generated in addition to any
other pollutants entering the system. Note that BOD must be defined as a pollutant and enter the system to simulate
Hydrogen Sulfide generation and propagation.
Pollutant - Enter the pollutant ID used to predict Hydrogen Sulfide buildup and transport. This pollutant (BOD) must enter
the drainage system via runoff, groundwater, or node inflow for any hydrogen sulfide buildup or corrosion prediction to occur.
Reaction Rate Coefficient - A first order coefficient (per day) which varies with the type of waste. The default value is
0.23/day.
Temperature - average daily temperature for the region (in oC).
pH - The pH of the wastewater. The normal pH range of municipal wastewater ranges from 6.0 to 8.0.
Sulfide Flux Coefficient - The effective sulfide flux coefficient for sulfide generation by the slime layer in gravity sewers
(meter/hour). For conservative analysis (i.e., observed sulfide buildup generally less than predicted), the suggested values of
this parameter is 0.00032.
Sulfide Loss Coefficient - A dimensionless coefficient to account for sulfide losses by oxidation and escape to atmosphere.
For conservative analysis (i.e., observed sulfide buildup generally less than predicted), the suggested values of this
parameter is 0.64. For moderately conservative analysis a value of 0.96 is suggested.
Ionization Coefficient - A logarithmic ionization constant for hydrogen sulfide (unit less), a function of temperature and
specific electrical conductance of the waste water. Its value generally varies from 6.67 (at a temperature of 40oC and specific
electrical conductance of 50,000 micromhos/cm) to 7.74 (at a temperature of 10oC and specific electrical conductance of 0
micromhos/cm).
Soluble Sulfide (%) - The percent of total sulfides that occur in the soluble (dissolved) form for the wastewater, most
frequently known to vary from 70 to 90 percent.

Slide - 79 Comprehensive Sewer Collection System Analysis


Chapter 5 Corrosion

Slide - 80 Comprehensive Sewer Collection System Analysis


Chapter 5 Corrosion
CORROSION PARAMETERS
These parameters are available when the Corrosion option is
selected. Corrosion results are generated in addition to Hydrogen Sulfide and
any other pollutants entering the system.
Material-Type - The conduit material ( i.e., cement-bonded or ferrous) for
gravity pipes.
Cement-bonded Alkalinity - The alkalinity of the conduit material expressed as
CaCO3 equivalents (for cement-bonded materials only). This value
approximately ranges from 0.18 to 0.23 for granitic aggregate concrete, 0.9 for
calcareous aggregate, 0.4 for mortar linings, and 0.5 for asbestos cement.
Acid Reaction Coefficient - The coefficient of efficiency for acid reaction
considering the estimated fraction of acid remaining on the wall. This value
could be as low as 0.3 and will approach 1.0 for a complete acid reaction.
Relative Saturation - The relative saturation of Hydrogen Sulfide in the air
compared to equilibrium concentration (typically 2 to 20 percent), expressed as
decimal fraction.

Chapter 6 Detention and Retention Systems
Wet Ponds or Retention Systems are frequently used for water quality
improvement, groundwater recharge, flood protection, aesthetic improvement or
any combination of these. Sometimes they act as a replacement for the natural
absorption of a forest or other natural process that was lost when an area is
developed. As such, these structures are designed to blend into neighborhoods
and viewed as an amenity.

Dry Ponds or Detention Systems temporarily stores water after a storm, but
eventually empties out at a controlled rate to a downstream water body.

Slide - 82 Comprehensive Sewer Collection System Analysis


Chapter 6 Infiltration Basins
An infiltration basin (also known as a recharge basin or in some areas,
a sump), is a type of best management practice (BMP) that is used to
manage stormwater runoff, prevent flooding and downstream erosion, and
improve water quality in an adjacent river,stream, lake or bay. It is essentially a
shallow artificial pond that is designed to infiltratestormwater though permeable
soils into the groundwater aquifer. Infiltration basins do not release water except
by infiltration, evaporation or emergency overflow during flood conditions.
