Simulation of Urban Rainstorm Waterlogging and Pipeline Network Drainage Process Based on SWMM

Abstract

Urban flood has already become weaknesses of flood control system in China. Flood and pipeline drainage calculation based on hydraulics model plays a key role in flood monitoring, warning and control management. On the basis of the topographic maps (high-precision DEM), underground drainage networks, land use and rainfall data in Enshi City, a SWMM-based urban flood model is constructed, which is applied to calculating rainstorm waterlogging and pipeline drainage process under the designed storm probability of 0.01, 0.02 and 0.05, and the designed storm period of 1 hour and 3 hours. The pipeline drainage peak flow of different pipeline type is also retrieved. And results suggest that SWMM is a reliable urban storm water model, which is suitable for urban storm flood simulation and pipeline network drainage analysis.
