Design flow definition

Design flow means the average annual flow or average daily flow specified in an approved facilities plan or approved plans and specifications, the flow specified in a WPDES permit, or the flow required to meet performance standards.
Design flow means the maximum volume of sewage a residence, structure, or other facility is estimated to generate in a twenty-four-hour period. It incorporates both an operating capacity and a surge capacity for the system during periodic heavy use events. The sizing and design of the on-site sewage system components are based on the design flow.
Design flow means the anticipated daily discharge from a building as determined in accordance with Sections IV and VIII F of the Technical Standards.

Examples of Design flow in a sentence

  • Design flow involves topics leading from initial requirements to a final implementation satisfying them.

  • Where drainage drywells are proposed as stormwater infiltration infrastructure, the required drainage drywell wall surface areas shall be determined using Darcy's Empirical Law as follows: Where: Q = Design flow in m3/s; A = Cross-sectional area of soil through which flow takes place in m2; K = Coefficient of permeability of receiving soils in m/s; i = Hydraulic gradient within proximity to the drywell.

It incorporates both an operating capacity and a surge capacity for the OSS during periodic heavy use events. The sizing and design of the OSS components are based on the design flow.
Design flow means the daily flow rate a facility is designed to accommodate on a sustained basis while satisfying all Aquifer Protection Permit discharge limitations and treatment and operational requirements. The design flow either incorporates or is used with appropriate peaking and safety factors to ensure sustained, reliable operation.
