Pipes and channels with spatially increasing flows in environmental engineering are referred to as collection conduits. Many water and wastewater treatment processes and other environmental engineering systems employ conduits which collect flow over the width or circumference of a basin, battery of parallel basins, or other defined length. Examples in water and wastewater treatment plants include tank effluent channels (settling tanks, aeration tanks, thickening tanks, etc.), skimming pipes, filter washwater troughs, filter underdrains, and submerged effluent collectors. Other examples include roof gutters, well screens, and street gutters and grates. The flow may enter the conduit at numerous discrete points or continuously along its length. An important (and sometimes overlooked) hydraulic feature of spatially‐increasing flows is the exchange of momentum associated with the acceleration of the inflowing water to the velocity of the flow in the conduit. In addition to providing adequate hydraulic capacity, properly functioning collector conduits can be important to process performance. This chapter presents methods for the design and analysis of collection conduits, with the emphasis on continuous inflow systems.
