AAEES 2015 Innovyze Excellence in Computational Hydraulics/Hydrology Award Presented to Carnegie Mellon University Doctoral Student
Broomfield, Colorado, USA, April 23, 2015 — Innovyze, a leading global innovator of business analytics software and technologies for smart wet infrastructure, today announced that Amy Dale, a Ph.D. candidate pursuing a joint degree in the Departments of Engineering and Public Policy and Civil and Environmental Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, has been chosen to receive the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists (AAEES) 2015 Innovyze Excellence in Computational Hydraulics/Hydrology Award. Amy’s publications related to her work include a recent Feature article in Environmental Science and Technology.

Among her other achievements, Amy is a national 2010 Udall Scholar, a 2011 ARCS (Achievement Rewards for College Scientists) Scholar, a former NSF IGERT Fellow, and a current EPA STAR Graduate Research Fellow. She received a B.S. in Bioinformatics (summa cum laude) from the University of Pittsburgh in 2011.

This prestigious annual award recognizes a student whose research contributes to the knowledge pool in the area of Computational Hydraulics & Hydrology. Selection is based on original, innovative research of publishable quality and other factors. Both Master's and Ph.D. students are eligible.

Administered by AAEES and co-sponsored by Innovyze, the award consists of cash honoraria of $1,500 for the student and $500 for the major faculty advisor. A $500 travel allotment is also provided to the student recipient to attend the AAEES Excellence in Environmental Engineering and Science Awards Luncheon. The award selection is administered jointly by a committee consisting of equal members of AAEES and the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors (AEESP).

“Innovyze is pleased to present this signal award to Ms. Dale,” said Paul F. Boulos, Ph.D., BCEEM, Hon.D.WRE,Dist.D.NE, Dist.M.ASCE, NAE, President, COO and Chief Technical Officer of Innovyze. “We are proud to further her future in this critical field, and play a small part in her efforts to make the world a better place through her work. On behalf of everyone at Innovyze, enthusiastic congratulations to her.”

Orifice and Weir flow calculations

Note: Orifice and Weir Flow Computations The orifice flow calculation proceeds as follows: 1. Initially and whenever the setting (i.e., the fraction opened) changes, flow coefficients for both orifice and weir behavior are computed as follows: a. For side orifices: Define Hcrit = h/2 where h is the opening height. b. For bottom orifices: i. For a circular orifice, compute area over length (i.e., circumference) as AL = h /4. ii. For a rectangular orifice compute AL = h*w/(2*(h+w)) where w is the opening width. iii. Compute Hcrit = Cd*AL/0.414 where Cd is the orifice discharge coefficient. At step 1b, the critical head for the bottom orifice, where orifice flow turns into weir flow, is found by equating the result of the orifice equation to that of the weir equation Cd*Area*sqrt(2g)*sqrt(Hcrit) = Cw*Length*sqrt(Hcrit)*Hcrit or Hcrit = (Cd * Area) / (Cw/sqrt(2g) * Length) The value of Cw/sqrt(2g) for a sharp crested weir is 0.414.

EMC Washoff in SWMM5

Image
There are four steps to using EMC concentrations in your network: 1. Define your pollutant by adding a pollutant using the Data=>Quality=>Pollutant command : 2. Define the Land Use by using the Data=>Land Uses command or the Land Use Editor: 3. Define Buildup to be None by clicking on the None Tab: 4. Define the EMC Washoff concentration by clicking on the Washoff Tab: This is where you would add a GW concentration More: http://www.swmm2000.com/
