Storm sewer systems may experience storm geysers, raising concerns about public safety. A
thorough understanding of the influential factors of the geysers is essential yet insufficiently …

Geysers can occur in storm sewer systems during heavy storm events, leading to public
safety concerns. In this study, a physical model as well as a transient three-dimensional …

Stormwater systems are subject to operational issues while undergoing rapid filling during
intense rain events. In various instances, air–water interactions take place, and it is possible …

Geysers in dropshafts of stormsewer systems are consecutive eruptions of a mixture of gas
and liquid that can attain heights of more than 30 m. The present study investigates the …

ABSTRACT A 3D computational fluid dynamics model based on a volume of fluid (VOF)
approach is presented to simulate air-water interactions and transient pressures in T …

The violent nature of storm sewer geysers has been puzzling researchers worldwide for a
very long time. This paper investigates the geyser simulation methodology using a small …

Stormwater geysers are commonly observed as explosive releases of air-water mixtures
from municipal systems, which can cause property damages and human safety concerns. In …

Transient flows in stormwater systems can lead to damaging and dangerous operational
conditions, as exemplified by geysering events created by the uncontrolled release of …

Stormwater systems undergoing rapid filling may present a variety of operational problems,
one such being the displacement of manhole covers, which can threaten both traffic and …

Geysers in storm sewer systems occur due to the uncontrolled release of trapped air through
dropshafts. This study presents an unsteady three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid …
