Summary: | This paper describes an investigation into the scale effect of model sizes on the
particle retention efficiency of the stilling pond type storm sewage overflows. The
scaling criteria for model-prototype similarity were examined. Data from previous
studies on scale effect were reviewed and analysed and their shortcomings discussed.
A qualitative comparison of the present model results with the prototype data obtained
by Saul (1977) were presented and confirmed the findings that an increase in model
size resulted in a decrease in the efficiency of a chamber |
