Peak flow is the most severe flow thal could occur fon any day when considering daily flow fluctuations and infiltrations. ‘The peak flow is derived from the average flow by applying a peak factor for daily flow fluctuations. The peak factor shall be estimated from the following formula: Peak Factor = 4.7 (PE/1000)*"* Where PE = assumed population equivalent e II) Infiltration inflation Is the amount of groundwater that enters sewers through Gamage in the network such as cracked pipes, leaked joint seals and tranhole walls, etc. There are many variables affecting infiltration sage quality of workmanship, joint types, pipe materials, height of sue able above pipeline, soil type, etc. The peak factor above has ‘heluded the contribution of infitrations. The maximum allowable ‘Péitration rate shall be 50 liters / (mm diameter. km of sewer length. day). 24.6 Sewer Cleansing Velocities ‘The principal accumulants in sewers are slimes and sediments. The hydraulic requirements for cleansing the sediments of @ sewer differ from those required for cleansing the slimes of a sewer. 1) Sediment Cleansing 001-8 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS A M4 &CONTROL NO. “a. » | MaynrLap WarER SERVICES, INCORPORATED 001 “f " ‘PAGE NO. Technical Specifications 40 of 23 REV, NOPDATE | sewerage (00/29 Sep 10 For the removal of sediments, the traditional design approach has been to ee minimum velocity to be achieved at least once dally. Minimum velocity values at full bore of 0.8 m/s are commonly specified. However, it has been found that larger pipe diameters require higher Valocity fo cleanse the sediment. This is mainly due to higher sediment depths in large diameter pipes. ‘The movement of sediment is mainly @ function of shearing stress needed Tee rreysa sediment off the pipe wall. Similarly, shear stress is 2 function of pipe diameter. The type of sediment (ie. grain $20, specific gravity, ee oats) also influences the movement of sediment and, thus, the @ cones ye required shear stress. For design purposes however, only 2 single sediment type needs to be assumed. ll). Slime Cleansing ‘The removal of slime depends un the stress needed to shear sections of The {fom each other or from the pipe wall. However, the shear stress Fequired to remove slimes is not a function of pipe diameter The necessary ‘eauiretiress depends on the thickness of slime to be removed and the pipe sea al The degree of removal of slimes in any pipe material varies with the sewage velocity. Removal of large portion of slimes requires high sewage velocities. It has been found that 85% or more of the ‘sulphide producing ‘slimes are removed when the grade of the sewer is 2.5 times ‘of that for sediment cleansing. In _ __ velocit is ting such a nd_steet ‘sewer. Although increasing the velocity up to the erttical velocity will increase the amount of slime being sloughed off, the rate of sulphide production remains substantially unaffected by the thinner slime layer. ‘Therefore, the selection of steep gradient to achieve ‘velocities for full slime stripping is not a design requirement. 24.7 Pipe Roughness Except for very high velocities, sme will always be present. which will increase the pipe roughness. Abrasion by sediments will also impart 4 permanent increase in Toughness. Pipeline roughness decreases as the ‘velocity increases. However, aaa rmcuffcient data to accurately determine the pipeline roughness for a wide ange of velocities or at small incremental changes jn velocity. In addition, the Velocity of the sewage flow varies due to the factors such as daily fluctuations, “ferent type of catchment, diferent stage of catchment maturity, etc. Therefore, it _ fg not possible to select the pipe roughness with great accuracy. 001-10 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: Hl am &r CONTROL NO.

Although not as critical as the structural integrity integrity oft a section, the considerations for this frictional support of sof column tne ihe load on the flexile pipe to be less than the weight of Sot directly above the pipe. This frictional support may be lost with time and the design using prism load represents a conservative design.
