Abstract

This paper describes a simulation method for the design of retention storages, overflows etc. in storm sewer systems. The method is based on computer simulation with real real rainfall time series as input and with a simple transfer model of the ARMA-type (Autoregressive moving average) applied to a storm sewer system. The output of the simulation is the frequency distribution of the peak flow, overflow volume etc. from the overflow or the retention storage. The parameters in the transfer model are found either from rainfall/runoff measurements in the catchment or from one or more simulations with an advanced hydraulic computer model.
