Mixing at junctions in water distribution systems: an experimental study
The accurate prediction of solute transport in water distribution systems has become a critical component of efforts aimed at delivering clean drinking water safely to large urban populations. One of the central assumptions that water quality models have traditionally relied upon dictates that, in a four-way junction, two incoming flows of differing quality will mix perfectly to produce two outgoing flows of equal quality, and that such complete mixing occurs irrespective of the specific assemblage characteristics of any particular four-way junction. In this study, laboratory experiments were conducted in order to characterize solute mixing patterns at double-tee and wye junctions, both of which are commonly found in urban water distribution systems. Results show that mixing at double-tee junctions tends to be less than complete when the tee connectors are located adjacent to each other and mix to a greater degree than flows at cross junctions.
