3D EAU Studies
Ensuring optimal performance of collective sanitation through continuous monitoring of CSOs
Issues
Ensuring the optimal performance of collective sanitation
While Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs) are essential components of the existing sewer system, their discharge must be closely monitored to prioritize investigations and investments aimed at ensuring the efficiency of the sewer network
Hydraulic expertise of discharge points
Would you like to implement or improve the reliability of your monitoring point intrumentation?
3D EAU offers a hydraulic assessment of each measurement site to identify the optimal approach.
The 3D EAU Solutions
0D/1D modelling
COACHS method (Computations and their Applications in Channel Hydraulics for Sewers)
CFD (3D modelling)
Estimate flow using non-contact water level measurements combined with 0D modeling (literature-based flow laws) or 1D modeling (streamline analysis) to calibrate measurement devices.
Estimate the flow rate discharged through the pumping station’s overflow pipe using water head measurements and orifice flow equations derived from a European research project.
Measure flow using non-contact water level monitoring and 3D flow modeling to ensure highly precise calibration of the measurement device.
Here’s an example of how CFD can improve data collection on sewer efficiency.
Benefits
Enhanced insight into the performance of the sewer system
Site-specific instrumentation recommendations
Simplified computation of sewer spills through hydraulic modeling (0D/1D/3D) tailored to the site’s needs
Maximizing investment and operational cost efficiency
Scientifically validated approach, with successful implementation on hundreds of CSOs
