1 WEF Webcast: Optimizing Clarifier Design and Performance CFD Modeling as a Tool for Clarifier Design Outline of Presentation What is CFD? Typical Applications Activated Sludge Example Projects Benefits of CFD 1
2 What is CFD? Log Jam Courtesy of Flow Science, Inc. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) requires the use of a computer to study the dynamic behavior of liquids and gases. How does it Work? NEORSD Junction Box ARCADIS Using the Navier-Stokes equations, and an expression of continuity, CFD programs calculate flow through thousands of control volumes that make up a model. 2
3 Typical Applications Straight Hydraulics Rating Curves Flow Splits Headloss Mixing Disinfection Solids Settling Grit Settlement Activated Sludge NEORSD CSOTF - URS Headloss and Mixing Strong Mixing occurs downstream of first overflow baffle and in drop shaft Frequency End of Mixing Chamber End of Pipe Additional mixing (conditioning) occurs in pipe that connects to the distribution box Percent Deviation from Perfect Mixing Mattabassett Wastewater Treatment Plant Wright Pierce 3
4 Disinfection Contact Time T m Time when maximum concentration of tracer exits contact basin (measured from time when a slug test is initiated) Calumet Water Reclamation Plant CH2M Hill / ARCADIS Chlorine contact tank design and upgrade Solids Settling Intake Design - ARCADIS Transport and settlement of particulate matter 4
5 Activated Sludge To simulate clarifier flows, relative motions from sludge settling are computed from a balance between buoyancy and viscous forces (i.e., a drift-flux velocity). An unstable density distribution is initialized - the heavier material sinks and separates. Activated Sludge (a) 11 (a) Density Distribution Circular Clarifier (red is high density) (b) Depth Varying Velocity Distribution (r = ½ R) E E E E E+00 (b) CFD simulations can effectively predict flow patterns caused by density differences within settling tanks. 5
