Abstract
A method for the numerical simulation of a rectangular sedimentation basin operating under steady or unsteady conditions is described. The computer model follows the spatial and temporal development of the influent particle size distribution toward the outlet of the tank. It is based on the fundamental mechanisms which govern particle motion and growth. The model accounts for the variability of the flow field and the particle size distribution in the tank and, from the local development of the particle size spectrum, predicts the overall performance of the settling basin.
