Poster
Understanding the uncertainty in the discharge capacity estimation of the round crested side weirs in UDS University of Belgrade, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Serbia To limit the downstream hydraulic load and/or upstream water level, hydraulic structures as side weirs are commonly used in combined sewer systems (CSSs) and urban drainage systems (UDSs). The flow conditions established around and over the side weir are complex, hence particular care must be taken in describing their discharge capacity. Fundamental issue is the assessment of the side weir discharge coefficient. Modern tools for UDS management, such as Digital Twins, require reliable estimation of the side weir discharge capacity, allowing for efficient monitoring and modelling of their operation during significant rain events. Here, a particular case study of the Belgrade UDS long side weir is analysed, where the single point measurements of water level were taken to quantify the total spill volume. It was illustrated that by employing existing models for discharge coefficient estimation, uncertainty can reach unacceptably high levels. Future steps and monitoring campaign is discussed to allow for more reliable estimation of the side weir operation. | |
