Abstract:Sediment accumulation in combined sewers can induce blockage and odor problems. Among various cleaning methods, using self-cleaning device generated flushing waves has been thought to be an effective solution. In this study, a series of numerical tests were conducted using a CFD software to investigate the cleaning efficiency of deposited sediment particles based on a simplified self-cleaning device. The CFD model was validated by the experimental and numerical results in the literature. Effects of several parameters including the flushing gate height, sediment bed thickness, sediment bed length and sediment bed position on cleaning efficiency were discussed. A relative accumulative transport rate was defined to analyze the cleaning efficiency. Results showed that the lowest height of flushing gate had the best effects on sediment removal. The flushing waves generated from sudden opening of the flushing gate were capable of cleaning sediment deposit in the given initial sediment bed thickness, length and position. The required time duration for cleaning the sediment deposition completely increased about 6, 3 and 3 times when the sediment bed thickness, sediment bed lenth, and distance between the flushing gate and sediment bed increased 10, 4 and 7 times, respectively. | |||
