URBAN DRAINAGE
1. Please describe the first flush phenomenon with special reference to the difference between pollutant
mass and concentration (including plots), as well as the role of first flush tanks 5p

2. Describe Infiltration and Inflows phenomenon in sewer systems, their differences and consequences
in the short and long term. Please also explain which sewer type (sanitary, storm, combined) are more
sensitive to these phenomena and why 5p

3. Assume a completely pervious surface (i.e. a green field), described by the following Horton
parameters:
IMAX = (40 + C2/2) mm/h;
IMIN = 5 mm/h;
Decay constant = 4
Based on the following rainfall parameters a = 42mm/h; n = 0.35, consider a constant intensity
rainfall event, whose duration is (30 + C1) minutes.
Please determine the net rainfall intensity (Rainfall that does not infiltrate) at the event onset, after 15
minutes and at the end of the event 5p

4. A concrete stormwater conduit (s=0.003; assume a reasonable value for the roughness coefficient)
drains the following catchment: Total area = (65000 + C2*2000) m2; CEQ = 0.65; LMAX = 500 m;
Rainfall parameters: a = (40 + C2/5) mm/h; n = 0.35. Please determine the appropriate pipe’s
diameter, so that 0.5<h/D<0.75 (1st step 2nd iteration = 5p)

5. Making use of the “Method based on rainfall only (R.M.)”, please determine the volume of a
detention tank, to be built at the downstream end of the following catchment:
Total area = 10ha = 100000m2;
CEQ = (0.5+C1/100);
a = (40 + C2/5) mm/h; n = 0.35
Max QOUT allowed = (80+C2) l/s 5p

6. SWMM computes the overland flow by means of the “sheet flow”


equation. Consider the following rectangular subcatchment
(A=12000m2; C=0.8; s=0.01) and rainfall intensity (i = 50+C1
mm/h). Determine the overland travel time (time required to travel
over the subcatch.) in the case of B=60m and of B=120m 5p
