13 MODEL PLAN 13

14 SO WHAT IS THE PURPOSE? Ohio WEA AWWA 2014 Technical Conference & Expo l Manage solids and provide uniform flow distribution at diversion structure MODEL PLAN Avoid certain phenomena at Pump Station Submerged vortices Free surface vortices Preswirl magnitude and fluctuation with time Nonuniform distribution of velocity in space and time at the impeller eye Entrained air or gas bubbles Can have adverse affect on pump performance and can lead to maintenance issues HIS

15 HYDRAULIC INSTITUTE STANDARD Ohio WEA AWWA 2014 Technical Conference & Expo l Prove design deviating from standard Pump station exceeds threshold capacity of standard Individual pump exceeds threshold capacity of standard Screens creating high velocity jets near pump intakes MODEL PLAN Significant cross flow velocities compared with pump bay Properly apply standard for good hydraulic performance, or prove a custom design HIS

16 MODEL DOMAINS Ohio WEA AWWA 2014 Technical Conference & Expo l Influent PS Physical Model Influent Control Structure CFD Influent Control Structure Physical Model N MODEL PLAN CFD to cover high flows not feasible with physical model 16

17 MODEL ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Ohio WEA AWWA 2014 Technical Conference & Expo l Influent Control Structure Even flow distribution Sediment collection prior to screens MODEL PLAN Influent Pump Station Wet Well Free surface vortices Subsurface vortices Swirl angles Velocity distribution No industry standard on physical model acceptance criteria for diversion structures 17
