3 CIE4491 Hydraulic design of urban stormwater systems

Stormwater systems – design steps

Quantify stormwater design flow rate

Run-off model, rational method

Determine pipe capacity based on full pipe flow

Computationally easier

Max Capacity is reached at 85% filling rate

Actual capacity is only 5% greater than for fully pipe, but not stable

Determine required Dh

Select standard D > Dh

Account for full pipe flow condition at maximum capacity

Account for part-full flow for all other conditions (esp. combined

systems – dry weather flow)

De Saint-Venant momentum equation

Q, A, z, W, t, r are discharge, flow area, bottom elevation, wet perimeter, wall shear stress and density.

y is the water depth (part-full flow) or pressure head (pipe flow)

Applicable for part-full flow and pressurized pipe flow!

It comprises 4 parts:

I. Advective acceleration (inertia)

II. Convective acceleration (changes in flow cross-section)

III. Gravity force

IV. Friction force

B is the surface width, y is water depth (part-full flow) or pressure

Part full flow: Internal storage at the free surface.

Each element behaves like a storage tank with surface area B*Dx.

The net discharge DQ is stored in the element.

Full pipe flow: B = 0, pipe elasticity and liquid compressibility are

neglected
