There is an increasing need to screen water in surface water collection systems to remove floating debris and small aquatic organisms to protect receiving water bodies. Recently, the Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority (AMAFCA, New Mexico, USA) has actively introduced structural debris removal from storm-water facilities as a best management practice. In the South Diversion Channel Project, AMAFCA’s objective is to divert the flow at the upstream end of the existing concrete structure and remove debris from this flow using Coanda-effect screens before allowing it to re-enter the channel. Design limitations, such as access to the debris removal site, existing components of the concrete structure, topography of the site, and need for flow-regulating structures complicate the design. This paper shows how numerical modeling tools (Delft3D-FLOW model) and physical modeling can be used in conjunction to observe flow patterns in a diversion structure and around Coanda-effect screens, estimate design parameters and thereby provide design recommendations.
