520 |a Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is used to study the effect of wind on the performance of a rectangular secondary sedimentation tank (SST) in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). Unlike most of the previous CFD modeling studies which evaluated the wind effect on the sedimentation tank in only water treatment plants, this study evaluates a rectangular SST in a WWTP at different wind speeds and directions, and under different inflow loading conditions. The wind is qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed for a range of wind speeds and directions as well as loading rates. The net effect is to change the three-dimensional hydrodynamics profiles, effluent suspended solids, and sludge blanket height. The simulation results show that the wind deteriorates overall clarification performance of the rectangular SST and has little effect on the sludge thickening under mild wind conditions until the speed increases an extreme windy condition. These CFD simulation results suggest that in strong windy climates, covering SSTs or protecting them from strong winds may be justified. PRACTITIONER POINTS: This is the first comparison of wind effects on a rectangular secondary sedimentation tank The effects of varied flow conditions, wind directions, and velocities are compared Wind-induced currents in the settling tank negatively affect removal efficiency Winds have strong negative impact on the performance of sedimentation tanks
