Training objectives

  • Basic concepts
  • Enable the modeler to test/evaluate, as part of a master plan for example, an additional solution to reduce spillage: network storage via tilting gates.

3D EAU training

Reducing spill - Integration of valves in a network model

Program

  • Reminder of the regulatory context for rainwater collection compliance

  • General presentation of the network storage solution and tilting valves in particular

  • Identification of storm overflows (DO) that contribute significantly to volume

  • Characterization of the water line in the vicinity of these overflows for the intense project rainfall (10 years)

  • Design of a project to equip the selected DOs with an overflow valve

  • Free use of the online pplication to obtain h/Q laws for these valves
  • Integrate overflow valves into the model
  • Evaluate the reduction in discharge volume
  • Quantifying the impact of intense rainfall (10-year return period: it’s important to reduce spillage without increasing flood risk).
