A set of generalised charts are presented in this article as a design aid for hydrologic sizing of grass filter strips. The charts express the volume of runoff and the peak flow rate from a grass strip and the residence time in terms of the size and surface and subsurface characteristics of the grass strip as well as the size and surface characteristics of the area draining to the filter strip. These charts are developed by using a mathematical model based on a kinematic‐wave formulation of overland flow and Green‐and‐Ampt formulation for infiltration. The results are obtained in terms of dimensionless parameters and generalised through the principle of hydrologic similarity. An example is included to demonstrate the use of the charts in a practical design problem. 相似文献

In the present paper, a novel numerical model based on the finite volume method is established to predict a time‐dependent, one‐dimensional, advection‐diffusion equation with variable coefficients in a semi‐infinite domain. The third‐and fifth‐order schemes are employed to solve the above‐mentioned equation. Totally, two dispersion problems are used to simulate various conditions as follows: (i) solute dispersion along steady flow through inhomogeneous domain and (ii) solute dispersion along temporally dependent unsteady flow through inhomogeneous domain. The inhomogeneity of the domain is provided by spatially dependent flow. The uniform node distribution is considered to divide the problem domain into a collection of smaller parts. Analytical solutions proposed in the literature are employed to demonstrate the accuracy and reliability of the suggested model. Meanwhile, the results of the aforementioned approaches are compared with the performance of the quadratic upstream interpolation for convective kinetics scheme. Lastly, the accuracy of the implemented schemes in developed model are discussed and evaluated. 相似文献

A simple method requiring only hand calculations is presented in this study that enables the use of the Green and Ampt infiltration model beyond the rain duration. The method takes into account that the runoff and infiltration processes continue for some period of time after the rain stops. Both the ground surface and subsurface characteristics are considered. A conjunctive overland flow‐infiltration mathematical model is employed for this purpose. A kinematic‐wave approach is used to model the overland flow, and the Green and Ampt equations are employed to calculate the infiltration rates. The governing equations are expressed and solved in terms of dimensionless parameters to enable the generalization of the results based on the principle of hydrologic similarity. A four‐point finite difference scheme is used to solve the governing equations. The results are presented in chart form. An example application of the proposed method is included. 相似文献

A mathematical model is presented for the residence time distribution in a submerged denitrification filter, in which pronounced tailing is experienced due to hold-up in the biofilm. Experiments with a dye tracer, Eosine-Y, and with Tritium show that adsorption of the dye makes it impossible to determine biofilm characteristics. The same is true for any tracer if nitrogen bubbles are present in the filter. An experiment with Tritium in the filter without bubbles indicates that the surface of the media is only partly covered with biofilm. Biofilm characteristics can be determined only with great uncertainty, due to uneven distribution. 相似文献

Trickling filters are essentially contacting devices which facilitate the adsorption of oxygen and organic material in waste water by a slime layer consisting of a gelatinous matrix interspersed with microorganisms. From a mechanistic viewpoint, therefore, the trickling filter is analogous to a fixed bed catalytic reactor. The characteristics of the catalytic surface, namely, the slime layer, are the major differences.Most of the previous studies on trickling filter analysis based on the above viewpoint have utilized a simple vertical wall or an inclined plane as the physical model. In this study, a circular tube containing flowing liquid forms the basis of the mathematical model permitting the determination, by use of experimental macroscopic data, of the reaction rate between dissolved oxygen and a thin layer of microorganisms attached to the wall within the system. The mathematical analysis assumes that both mass transfer and chemical reaction are important in the overall oxygen consumption process.The experimental data, based on the mathematical model, show that in a continuous flow, steady state system the reaction kinetics between dissolved oxygen and the attached thin layer of microorganisms does not depend on the dissolved oxygen concentration, and thus is kinetically zero order. This has been experimentally shown previously only for suspended cultures of bacteria and for the first time has been verified for slime beds. 相似文献

A computational flow analysis using the concept of the inflow age was conducted to evaluate the flow characteristics and retention time depending on the shape and number of inlets and outlets in an oxidation pond. The oxidation pond was rectangular in shape with a width‐to‐length ratio of 3, a depth of 3 m, an area of 500 m2, and square‐shaped inlet and outlet. The flow rate of the mine drainage was set to 5 L/s. The computational flow analysis showed that the homogeneity and inflow exchange efficiency were the highest when the width‐to‐height ratio of the inlet and outlet was 0.5, while they were the lowest when it was 1.0. The number of inlets in the oxidation pond had a significant effect on the flow characteristics in the pond, whereas the number of outlets had no significant effect. The homogeneity and inflow exchange efficiency appeared to be the highest when the number of inlets was two. 相似文献

We determined spatial variations in potential denitrification activity and the controlling hydrological as well as biochemical processes in the sediments of a Swedish treatment wetland. Hydrological processes, including water residence times, were analyzed using a 2D depth-averaged flow model and the denitrifier community structure was analyzed using denaturing gradient gel electrophoreses (DGGE) of nosZ genes, encoding nitrous oxide reductase. In addition, we provide a theoretical basis for evaluation of denitrification rates useful in nitrate-limited conditions. The results demonstrate that potential denitrification rates differed significantly between the sampling locations (CV=0.34). The variations were best described by concentration of nitrogen in sediments and water residence time. DGGE analyses indicated that a few key populations dominated and that the community diversity increased with decreasing nutrient levels and increasing water residence times. Moreover, we found that denitrification rates in terms of Menten and first-order kinetics can be evaluated by fitting a mathematical expression, comparing denitrification and other nitrogen-transforming processes to measured product formation in nitrate-limited experiments. 相似文献

Modeling can play a particularly useful role in ultraviolet (u.v.) disinfection because of difficulties in measuring u.v. dose and the immediate results of disinfection. This model predicts bacterial survival in flow-through systems. The calculation takes into account the complex intensity patterns, non-ideal flow patterns, and non-linear curves of log survival vs u.v. dose. Based on the organismal dose-response, the number of survivors in each fraction of the residence time distribution is calculated separately and summed to calculate the average survival. The model uses as input data: the average u.v. intensity within the system, the residence time distribution, and an experimentally determined dose-survival curve in a simplified system where dose can be directly measured. The predictions of the model corresponded well with measured survival in a u.v. pilot plant study. The model was used to show the effects of flow dispersion on average survival by varying residence time distribution. Measures of capacity and efficiency of u.v. systems were derived and illustrated experimentally in simple cylindrical batch units and in two multiple lamp units. 相似文献

The determination of residence time is of major interest in terms of the characterisation, design and modelling of most environmental engineering processes, where a proper and homogeneous fluid distribution is often essential, and especially in the domain of wastewater or waste material treatment. In this paper, two different numerical methods for obtaining theoretical predictions of residence time distributions using the finite volume method are used. The first one consists of solving a transport equation of the local mean age of the fluid, which is the average time that a fluid particle takes to reach any point of the domain from a supply inlet. The result obtained is a spatial distribution of the local mean age of the fluid, which may be displayed as isocontours in the space domain considered. The second one consists of injecting a virtual particle stream (i.e. a fluid particle having the same density as the surrounding fluid, and treated numerically as a tracer) and measuring the time elapsed between the injection and the termination of the trajectory using a Lagrangian reference frame. The result obtained is expressed as an exit time distribution and may be displayed as a histogram. Finally, a comparison with measurements of mean residence times of tracers in a lagoon is made in order to establish the relevance of this method in concrete form. The prediction enables the instantaneous determination of the geometrical characteristics of the flow that contribute actually to the residence time dispersion. Its appropriate use prior to the design of water treatment and waste material treatment installations should contribute to prevent undesirable flow patterns such as short-circuiting and dead spaces. 相似文献

Temperature as an alternative tracer for the determination of the mixing characteristics in wastewater treatment plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The hydraulic characteristics, i.e. the residence time distributions, of wastewater treatment plant reactors are usually determined using conventional tracers. This paper aims to present an alternative approach based on wastewater temperature. The step in temperature change, e.g. from stormwater events with cold rainwater, is used as a tracer signal. The method was verified using lab- and pilot-scale tests that showed very good agreement of the time series estimated both with conventional and temperature tracer methods. Results from lab-scale tests exhibit a zone with a minor water exchange of about 10% of the volume of all reactors, while the respective zone in the pilot-scale tests was estimated at about 30% of the total volume. The short-circuit flow was more than 50% of the inflow resulting from gaps between the walls inside the reactor cascade. An application example shows the importance of reliable residence time distribution underlying activated sludge modelling and the uncertainty associated with neglecting the determination of appropriate flow-through characteristics. 相似文献

When stochastic simulation of inflow turbulence random fields is employed in the analysis or design of wind turbines in normal operating states, it is common to use well-established standard spectral models represented in terms of parameters that are usually treated as fixed or deterministic values. Studies have suggested, though, that many of these spectral parameters can exhibit some degree of variability. It is not unreasonable to expect, then, that derived flow fields based on simulation with such spectral models can be in turn highly variable for different realizations. Turbine load and performance variability would also be expected to result if response simulations are carried out with these variable flow fields. The aim here is to assess the extent of variability in derived inflow turbulence fields that arises from the noted variability in spectral model parameters. Simulation of these parameters as random variables forms the basis of this study. A commercial-sized 1.5 MW concept wind turbine is considered in the numerical studies. Variability in turbulence power spectra at field points on the rotor plane and in turbulence coherence functions for separations on the order of a rotor diameter and smaller is studied. Using time domain simulations, variability in various wind turbine response measures is also studied where the focus is on statistics such as response root-mean-square and 10-min extreme estimates. It is seen that while variability in inflow turbulence spectra can be great, the variability in turbine loads is generally considerably lower. One exception is for turbine yaw loads whose larger variability arises due to sensitivity to a coherence decay parameter that is itself highly variable. Finally, because reduced-order representations of turbulence random fields using empirical orthogonal decomposition techniques allow useful physical insights into spatial patterns of flow, variability in the energy distribution and the shapes of such empirical eigenmodes is studied and a simplified model is proposed that retains key variability sources in a limited number of modes and that accurately preserves overall inflow turbulence field uncertainty. 相似文献

Filters are used in heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems for both commercial and residential buildings
to protect the equipment and improve indoor air quality in conditioned spaces. Although there are many benefits of using the
air filter in an air-conditioning system, the resistance associated with it can increase fan energy use and may adversely
affect air-conditioning system performance and efficiency. The paper explores the impact of air filtration on energy consumption
for a typical air-conditioning (AC) system with constant- or variable-speed fan. A whole building simulation model is used
to simulate the annual energy consumption for various air-conditioning system capacities, different levels of filter cleanliness,
and various filter minimum efficiency reporting values (MERV). The results indicate that with a constant-speed fan, the cooling
energy use increases as the filter gets dirty over time and the energy use in the fan may increase but this depends heavily
on the investigated fan performance curve. With a variable-speed fan, the fan energy use increases with a dirty filter but
the cooling and heating energy uses are slightly affected. The fan energy use rise due to the dirty filter depends mainly
on air system capacities, filter MERV ratings, and the degree of the filter cleanliness. 相似文献

This paper discusses the effect of ventilation duct as a particle filter by modeling particle deposition in ventilation ducts, which is the reason that ventilation ducts could “filter” particles. An Eulerian model is employed to predict the particle deposition velocity onto the wall and floor from fully developed turbulent flow in ventilation ducts [Zhao B, Wu J. Modeling particle deposition from fully developed turbulent flow in ventilation duct. Atmospheric Environment 2006;40:457–66], while an empirical equation is proposed to predict the particle deposition velocity onto the ceiling combined with experimental data and, another empirical equation by McFarland et al. [Aerosol deposition in bends with turbulent flow. Environmental Science and Technology 1997;31:3371–7] is used for predicting the particle penetration through the bends, which are hard to analyze by theoretical method. 相似文献

There are two main ways to obtain better knowledge of the hydraulics of ponds, namely measurements and simulations. In this study, the applicability of using three-dimensional simulations as an engineering tool in stormwater pond design was investigated. To do this, three-dimensional simulations were compared with measurements of flow pattern and residence time in a large physical model of a detention tank (13 × 9 × 1 m). The agreement between measurements and simulations concerning both flow pattern and residence time distribution curves was found to be good for high flow rates. 相似文献
