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

- Three-dimensional simulations were used to model how a temperature difference between the incoming water and tank water influences the flow pattern and residence time in a detention tank. Buoyant, neutrally buoyant and negatively buoyant incoming jets were simulated. The simulations were compared with measurements for neutrally buoyant jets in a large-scale model of a detention tank (13 × 9×1 m). The results show that a negatively buoyant jet gives slightly less effective volume, defined as the time when 50% of added tracer has passed the outlet divided by the nominal residence time, than a neutrally buoyant jet. The flow pattern for a negatively buoyant jet at low densimetric Froude numbers consists of a current that travels along the bottom towards the outlet and a counter current at the surface towards the inlet, while the neutrally buoyant jet excites a surface jet with two large eddies on each side of the jet. This implies that the short-circuiting will decrease when a negatively buoyant jet at low densimetric Froude number occurs in the tank. The difference between the flow pattern excited by a buoyant jet and a neutrally buoyant jet is small.

Three-Dimensional Simulation and Physical Modelling of Flows in Detention Tanks - Studies of Flow Pattern, Residence Time and Sedimentation

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Improving effluent water quality to receiving waters using stormwater ponds and storage tanks is acknowledged to be an effective method. The performance of the method depends however on flow conditions such as velocity distribution, short-circuiting currents and the volume through which the influent water flows, the so called effective volume. Enhancing performance, e.g. increasing the settling of suspended solids in stormwater ponds, demands better design and a deeper understanding of fluid dynamics. The overall objectives of the work reported in this thesis are to study the possibilities of using a generic Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software and three-dimensional flow simulations as a design-engineering tool and to enhance knowledge of fluid dynamics in stormwater ponds and detention tanks. To be able to use three-dimensional simulations as a design tool, it is important that the simulations can predict the important flow features of ponds and tanks. Comparative studies were made using numerical and physical modelling in a large-scale model of a detention tank and a small-scale model of a storage tank. The flow pattern and residence time were analysed in the physical model of the detention tank using drogue tracking and impulse tracer tests. Sedimentation efficiency and distribution of sediment on the tank bottom were studied in the storage tank. Good agreement is found between measured and simulated flow patterns, residence time and particle removal for high inflow velocities. For low flow rates, difficulties were encountered in both the measurements and the simulations. Simulations show that an island placed in front of the inlet, so that the influent water hits the island perpendicularly, is most efficient for avoiding short-circuiting currents and extending the residence time in a rectangularly shaped pond. A subsurface berm placed in front of the inlet does not have the same impacts on short-circuiting. Moving the inlet so that only one circulation is created in the tank, extends the time needed for the initial tracer to reach the outlet, but the effective volume decreases. Denser influent water may change the flow pattern and decrease the effective volume. The suggested bed shear stress boundary condition for particle contact with the bottom is simple but gives reasonable results and can be used to estimate removal efficiencies and possible location of sediment.

- Utvecklingen av datorernas kapacitet under 80-talet skapade nya möjligheter att bättre använda grundläggande samband för analys inom många teknikområden. Ett av dessa var analysen av strömning i vatten- och avloppssystem där flödena är mycket starkt varierande i tid och rum och därmed svåra att simulera
