Numerical study of effects of flushing gate height and sediment bed properties on cleaning efficiency in a simplified self-cleaning device

Sediment accumulation in combined sewers can induce blockage and odor problems. Among various cleaning methods, using self-cleaning device-generated flushing waves has been thought to be an effective solution. In this study, a series of numerical tests were conducted using CFD software to investigat...
