The paper focuses on the assessment of second-order explicit numerical scheme for unsteady flows in sewers. In order to simulate the pressurized flow the 'Preissmann slot' concept is implemented. For simulation of the transcritical flow the original and improved McCormack scheme is used. The calculated results are compared with numerical solutions and laboratory measurements published in the technical literature. Moreover, the...

Problem przepływu wody w rurach kanalizacji deszczowej wiąże się z pewnymi specyficznymi zjawiskami zachodzącymi w przewodach podczas zjawisk burzowych. Jeśli rury zaczynają być całkowicie wypełnione wodą, można zaobserwować przejście z ruchu ze swobodną powierzchnią do ruchu pod ciśnieniem i odwrotnie. Takie zjawisko można zaobserwować również w kanałach kontrolowanych przez urządzenia sterujące, np. zasuwy. Ponadto ruch szybkozmienny...

The specific flood volume is an important criterion for assessing the performance of sewage networks. It has been shown that its value is greatly influenced by the layout of the sewers in the catchment area, which is usually expressed by a fractal dimension. Currently, only mechanistic models (such as SWMM) enable the determination of the impact of the layout of the sewers on flooding volume, but they require additional and robust...

Rainfall Intensity–Duration–Frequency (IDF) relationships are widely used in water infrastructure design and construction. IDF curves represent the relationship between rainfall intensity, duration, and frequency, and are obtained by analyzing observed data. These relationships are critical for the safe design of flood protection structures, storm sewers, culverts, bridges, etc. In this study, the IDF curves and empirical IDF formulas...
