On the Modeling of Inflow and Infiltration Within Sanitary Collection Systems for Addressing Nonlinearities Arising from Antecedent Moisture Conditions
Abstract
The deterioration of sanitary collection systems results in increased storm water and clear-water entering the system through inflow and infiltration (I&I). These systems are often not designed to handle the resulting wet weather flow rates caused by I&I. The effectiveness of improvements in sanitary infrastructure relating to I&I depends entirely on the ability to accurately forecast I&I response. Currently, there are no modeling tools available that specifically model I&I within sanitary collection systems. Thus, the ability to accurately forecast I&I response and make effective recommendations for sanitary collection system improvements is currently limited.
