1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Northwest Hydraulic Consultants(NHC)is pleased to submit this Scope of Work(SOW) and cost estimate
to support HDR in the hydraulic design of the Phase 2 Deep Water Intake for Brushy Creek Regional
Utility Authority(BCRUA). Our proposal is based on information provided in Exhibit B—Engineering
Services provided in an email dated August 7, 2014.
1.2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Phase 2 project consists of a permanent raw water intake in a deeper location on lake Travis to
deliver water by gravity to a new high capacity pumping station located adjacent to the City of Cedar
Park Water Treatment Plant(WTP).The pumping station will convey water to the Phase 1 raw water
pipeline on Trails End Road. Phase 2 includes multiple key elements that will result in the construction
of a deep Water Intake System with an ultimate capacity of 141.7 million gallons per day(MGD).These
elements include an intake assembly,maintenance building,gravity flow tunnel, pump station,
transmission tunnel, and electrical improvements, The intake capacity is allocated among the owners
with BCRUA WTP (105.8 MGD),the City of Cedar Park WTP(23.9 MGD),and the City of Leander WTP
(12.0 MGD).

2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
Scope of Work tasks is defined as per Exhibit B—Engineering Services Document,dated August 7, 2014.
TASK 1.0-PROJECT MANAGEMENT,COORDINATION AND MEETINGS
Task 1,1-Project Administration
NHC will provide monthly progress reports with an updated schedule with each invoice.
TASK 5.0—INTAKE AND SITE 4 MAINTENANCE FACILITIES
Task 5,3,1.3—Perform CFD Modeling of the Selected Alternative
A review of design challenges posed by intakes of WTPs can be found in AWWA and ASCE
(1990)'. Depending on the location and orientation,velocity on the screen could be highly non-
uniform.Adjacent intakes or screens could interfere and degrade their capacity. Intakes
withdrawing water from a lake or a river could affect aquatic organisms such as juvenile fish. If
endangered species are present, intakes should include screens to minimize impingement and
entrainment.A custom designed screen may need additional considerations,as internal support
structures could create eddies and dead-flow zones and increase head losses.
Scope of Work
Workshop
NHC will participate in a one day workshop at HDR's office in Austin to review the selected
design,determine data requirements from Hi]R, identify operating conditions, water levels for
the modeling,discuss possible improvements to the design,and review the schedule.
Two people from NHC are proposed for the workshop:Tom Demlow, Project Manager, and
Liaclat Khan,CFD Modeling Lead.
Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) Modeling
The proposed conceptual raw water intake assembly includes up to four intakes connected to an
84-inch diameter header,a lake-tap,and a 96-inch diameter gravity tunnel.The highest and
lowest elevations of the intakes are 660 and 565 ft-msl.As currently proposed,four intake levels
will be used, and only one of the intakes will be used to withdraw up to 141.7 NICD.
NHC proposes the use of STAR-CCM+,a state-of-the-art CFD modeling software package to
evaluate the selected Alternative determined in Task 5.3.1.2.
The following tasks will be performed for the initial evaluation of the hydraulics of the selected
intake layout:

CFD,HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS,and PHYSICAL MODELING SCOPE OF WORK-NHC updated Proposal
nh
+ Data Collection and Review:The data necessary for the study are bathymetry of the
lake,detailed drawings of both preliminary intake structures,and lake water levels
corresponding to intake withdrawal rates.This task assumes that all data and
information necessary for this study will be provided by HDR. NHC will perform a CWQC
evaluation before using them for the study.
■ take Bathymetrlc Data Processing: For an accurate prediction of the approach flow,
bathymetry of the lake extending sufficiently far from the intake will be necessary.The
bathymetric data to be provided by HDR will be analyzed and processed to create a 3-D
surface to define the lower boundary of the model domain. If requested, NHC will
provide a quote to acquire the necessary bathymetric information.
• Geometric Rendering of Model Domain:A 3-13 rendering of the selected intake will be
created,and will include the intake screens,riser pipe,84-inch header pipe, and a
segment of the 95-inch gravity tunnel.This intake will be combined with lake bed to
define the modes domain.
+ Computational Mesh Generation:The model domain for the selected intake
arrangement will be imported into STAR-CCM+,and a computation mesh will be
generated to resolve all the important geometric features. However, note that the
screen will be represented by the porous baffle option of STAR-CCM+,without resolving
wires creating the porous screen surface.
■ Baseline FlowSimulotion and Analysis;Appropriate boundary conditions will be applied
to simulate a steady state for withdrawal of 141.7 MGD through the screens.The model
results will be analyzed to visualize the approach flow,velocity distribution on the
screens,interaction/interference among the screens,and circulation pattern inside the
screen(for internal hydraulics).
The following tasks will be performed to optimize the hydraulics of the selected intake layout:
• Design Modification Modeling: Both the external and internal hydraulics of the selected
layout will be reviewed and design modifications will be proposed to improve hydraulic
performance of the screens and the intake. For the purpose of cost estimate and
schedule,this proposal assumes that three(3) modifications will be sufficient to finalize
the design. In addition to updating the model domain geometry,each design
modification will require remeshing.This proposal assumes design modifications will be
performed for the lowest lake water level at which the intake will be operational.
• Performance Verification Modeling:This task will verify that optimized design will
perform equally well for other lake water levels and water withdrawal rates. For the

recommendation.Fallowing a quality assurance review, NHC will provide a draft report

Assumptions and Limitations
The SOW,cast,and schedule of this proposal are based on the following assumptions:
• HDR will provide all data and information forthis study, including bathymetry of lake,
detailed drawings of the intake structure, and lake water levels,and operating
conditions. The SOW does not include task for field data collection.
• The proposed system consists of four intakes at different elevations. However,only one
intake will be used at a time to withdraw a maximum of 141,7 MGD. In case this
assumption is invalid, NHC will request additional work authorization from HDR for the
study.
• For each operating scenario, the CFR model will simulate steady state flow by applying
time independent boundary conditions,and assuming a horizontal water surface
throughout the model domain. further,thermal stratification of the lake, if any,will not
be considered in the CFD model.
• The design development task will be performed for three (3)design modifications.
Further, modeling of four(4)operating scenarios representing different lake water
levels and water withdrawal rates will be sufficient for performance verification, If these
assumptions become invalid, NHC will request additional work authorization from HDR
for completing the study.

TASK 7.0-PUMP STATION
Task 7.2—Preliminary Pump Station Layouts
Task 7.2-Develop Three Concepts
Workshop and Desktop Analysis
NHC will participate in a one day workshop at HDR's office in Austin to develop the
conceptual design alternatives for the pump station.Three preliminary alternatives have
been proposed including a single shaft, dual shaft,and individual pump shaft designs.
These will be evaluated and enhanced as need be.Two people from NHC are proposed
for the workshop:Tom Demlow, Project Manager, and Liaqat Khan,CFD Modeling Lead.
RCRUA PHASE 2 BEEP WATER INTAKE Page 4
CFD,HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS,and PHYSICAL MODELING SCOPE OF WORK-NHC Updated Proposal
nh
From the Design Criteria Workshop, up to three alternatives will be further developed.
The hydraulic evaluation for each concept will be further developed and refined.This
will include the potential for high flow pre-swirl,vortex formation, and unbalanced
velocities at the pump.This will be based on desktop evaluation along with the CFD
results(see Section 7.2.2).
Task 7.2.2—CFD Evaluation of the Three Concepts
Operational performance of pumps is strongly influenced by velocity distribution in the
approach channel, as determined by the wet well geometry and influent conditions.The
HI guidelines for satisfactory hydraulic performance of a pump include an average flow
pre-swirl of less than 5", less than 10 percent deviation of point axial velocity from the
mean, and the absence of vortices stronger than Type 1. (Note that these performance
criteria are for CFD modeling only,whereas for physical modeling the performance
criteria take into account non-steady hydraulics.) For the proposed pump station, a CFD
model will be used to evaluate three alternate layouts of the pump station to identify
the most promising option that will be further refined using a physical model.
Initial Evaluation of the Alternatives
The proposed raw water pump station will include a wet well shaft(s)approximately
300-feet deep, and approximately 10 submersible or vertical turbine pumps.
Alternatives being considered include single shaft,dual shaft,and individual shaft
designs. Exhibit B suggests evaluation of up to three layouts of the pump station to
identify the most promising option for further analysis. NHC will perform the following
tasks for each of the alternatives:
+ Data Collection and Review:The data necessary for this study are drawings of
the pump station for each alternative,and pump operating conditions.This task
assumes that data and information necessary for this study will be provided by
HDR. NHC will review the data and perform a C!A/QC before using them for
developing the model. In addition,considering low, normal,and high flows,the
review will also identify up to four(4)critical scenarios for performance
evaluation for each alternative(three flow rates at one water level and one test
at a different water level).
+ Geometric Renderings of Model Domain:The first step after collecting project
related data and information is generating a 3-D CAD rendering of each model
domain. Each model domain will encompass the wet well,the pumps,and a
sufficiently long segment of the 96-inch diameter inlet tunnel. Depending an the
water level in the lake,several model domains may be necessary.The SOW
assumes three model domains corresponding to low, normal,and high flows will
be sufficient forthe analysis.
• Computational Mesh Generation:The model domains will be imported into
STAR-CCM+,and computation meshes will be generated to accurately resolve
BCRUA PHASE 2 DEEP WATER INTAKE page 5
CFD,HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS,and PHYSICAL MODELING SCOPE OF WORK-NHC Updated Proposal
nim
the important geometric features of the model domain. Because of possible
changes in water level, up to three(3)computational meshes will be developed
for this task for each alternative.
Baseline Flow Simulation and Analyses: For each of the computational meshes,
appropriate boundary conditions will be applied,and the model will be run to
obtain a steady state solution.The results will be analyzed to visualize the
approach flow,determine pre-swirl and deviation of the velocity at the pump
bell throat,and identify surface and subsurface vortices. Up to four(4)model
runs for each alternative will be made and analyzed in this task.
• Selection of an Pump Intake Layout:The hydraulic characteristics will be
compared to determine a preferred pump station layout.This analysis will not
take into account any fatal flaws in terms of constructability or maintenance
and operating costs.
Completion of these tasks will result in nine computational meshes and 12 model runs.
Advance Selected Design using CFD(Preliminary 30%Design)
Design modifications will be made to improve the approach Flow,and reduce pre-swirl
and non-uniform velocity at the pump bell throat for each alternative. For the purpose
of cost estimate and schedule,this proposal assumes that three (3)design modifications
for the selected alternative will be sufficient to achieve an acceptable hydraulic
performance.This will result in three model runs at the worst operating condition
identified in the initial evaluation.
Assumptions and Limitations
The SOW, cost, and schedule of this proposal are based on the following assumptions:
F HDR will provide all data and information necessary for this study,including
conceptual-level drawings of the three layouts of the pump station.
+ The CFD modeling approach described in this proposal will simulate steady state
flow field in the model domain for each modeling scenario.This modeling
approach will not capture temporal variability of the vortices; however, most
reported CFD model studies have successfully used this approach for optimizing
pump sump hydraulics.
Task 7.2.4—Pump Station Alternatives TM
The hydraulic portion of the Pump Station Alternatives Technical Memorandum will be
prepared and submitted to HDR.This will include pertinent plots from the CFD analysis
for each alternative and other graphics as need be, Recommendations for one of the
alternatives will be included with justification.The results from design development of
the selected design will be included in the technical memorandum. NHC will provide a
draft report in electronic format(PDF)to HDR. Upon receipt of a consolidated set of
BCRUA PHASE 2 DEEP WATER INTAKE Page 6

comments,NHC will finalize the report and distribute an electronic(PDF)and five(5)
printed copies to HDR.
Task 7.3—Hydraulic Analysis
Task 7.3.4—System Pressure Surge Analysis
Project Understanding for Pressure Surge Analysis
NHC will perform pressure surge analyses for the pump station,gravity flow tunnel(i.e.,
deep water intake to the wet well at pump station),proposed pressure main/tunnel
(i.e.,pump station discharge to connection with Phase 1 raw water transmission main),
and the existing Phase 1 raw water transmission main.
The deep water intake capacity will be allocated to the City of Cedar Park WTP(23.9
MGD),the City of Leander's Sandy Creek WTP(12 MGD),and the Brushy Creek Regional
Utility Authority WTP(105.8 MGD).The ultimate capacity is 141.7 MGD.The Cedar Paris
WTP is adjacent to the pump station site,whereas the Sandy Creek WTP is located
approximately one mile downstream of the pump station and the Regional WTP is at the
terminus of the Phase 1 raw water transmission main.
The deep water intake will have the capability of removing water from Lake Travis at
various elevations between El.565 ft and El.660 ft. The 96-inch diameter gravity flow
tunnel between the deep water intake and the pump station(El. 500 ft)will be
approximately 1.7 miles in length.The pump station wetwell configuration will be
developed in Task 7.2. Ten (10)submersible or vertical turbine raw water pumps will be
installed in the wet well. Vertical pipes will be installed in the wet well between the
discharge of each pump and the 84-inch diameter pressure main/tunnel(EL 780 ft).The
concept level drawings show that surge relief valves are being planned for installation at
the pump station.The pressure main/tunnel will be approximately 0.5 miles in length
and will connect to the existing 78-inch diameter Phase 1 raw water transmission main.
The Phase 1 raw water transmission main is approximately 4.6 miles in length and
terminates at the storage tanks located at the Regional WTP.There are several
combination air and vacuum valves installed on the existing Phase 1 raw water
transmission main.
An analysis of the operation of the interim floating barge pump station near the Cedar
Park WTP and the open/close operation of the existing pressure reducing valves at the
turnouts to the Cedar Park WTP and Sandy Creek WTP are beyond the scope of NHC's
analyses. For this analysis,the take offs to the Cedar Park WTP and Sandy Creek WTP
will be treated as constant demands when they are open and zero demand when they
are closed.
Of primary interest for this project are the pressure transients created by the loss of
power to and start-up of the pumps at the pump station.

nhc
• A power failure at the pump station is likely to cause the worst-case pressure
transients in the system. For example,a loss of power to the pump station will
create a pressure drop wave that will propagate out from the discharge side of
the pump station and into the pressure main/tunnel and existing Phase I raw
water transmission main toward the Regional WTP. If the pressure drops
sufficiently low in the pipelines to create vapor pressure,vapor cavities will
form,and fluid column separation will occur. Upon re-pressurization of the
pipelines by flow reversal and/or a reflected water hammer wave,the vapor
cavities will collapse back into solution and the fluid columns will rejoin.When
the fluid columns rejoin,very high magnitude pressure spikes will be created
that could damage the pipelines.The pipelines may also be damaged by large
magnitude negative pressures resulting from the initial pressure drop wave
and/or large magnitude high pressures created by a reflected water hammer
wave.Simultaneously with the pressure drop wave,a pressure upsurge wave
will propagate out from the suction side of the pump station into the gravity
flow tunnel toward the deep water intake. If the pressure in the gravity flow
tunnel were to increase above the maximum allowable pressure for this
conduit,damage could occur.Also, if the pressure in the gravity flow tunnel
between the deep water intake and the pump station were to drop below the
crown of the pipe harmful negative pressures would develop that would have to
be eliminated with appropriately sized vents or other means. Furthermore,if
the water level in the wet well was to drop too low it could impact the
performance of the pumps when they are re-started.
+ If the pumps are brought up to speed too quickly,the pipelines downstream of
the pump station could be over-pressurized by an upsurge wave while the
gravity flow tunnel.could experience low or even negative pressures resulting
from the creation of a simultaneous downsurge wave.
NHC's pressure surge analysis will predict the maximum and minimum MGL envelopes
for the gravity flow tunnel, pressure main/tunnel and existing Phase 1 raw water
transmission main following pump power failure and pump startup,and will
recommend surge control,if necessary,to protect the system from adverse pressure
transients. Recommendations will also be provided for safely starting the pumps.
Technical Approach for Pressure Surge Analysis
NHC proposes to construct a pressure surge analysis model of the system using the
TransAM hydraulic transient analysis software.This Method of Characteristics(MDC)
based computer model has been used by NHC to perform hydraulic transient analyses of
pipeline systems with diameters as large as 22 ft and flow rates up to 1485 cfs.NHC has
used TransAM to perform hydraulic transient analyses for the City of Dallas,
Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, San Diego County Water Authority,
Los Angeles Department of Water and Power,the Southern Nevada Water Authority,

Calleguas Municipal Water district, Irvine Ranch Water District, City of San Diego,City of
Stockton,City of Lodi,City of Elk Grove and many other water and wastewater agencies.
TransAM has been extensively verified by comparison of computed transient pressures
and flows with those measured in the field (e.g.,Axworthy and Chabot,2004)and
laboratory(e.g.,Axworthy, et al., 20003),and predicted by codes developed by others.

Task 7.3.5—physical Hydraulic Model
Acceptance Criteria
The performance criteria to be used in evaluating the pump station wet well
configuration determined in Task 7.7 are based on the Hydraulic Institute 2012
Standards:
• Free surface and subsurface vortices entering the pump should be less severe
than vortices with coherent dye cores(free-surface vortices of Type 3 and sub-
surface vortices of Type 2).Dye core vortices may be acceptable only if they
occur for less than 10%of the time or only for infrequent operating conditions.
# Swirl angles, both the short-term (10 to 30 second model) maximum and the
long-term(10 minute model) average indicated by the swirl meter rotation,
should be less than 5 degrees. Maximum short-term (10 to 30 seconds model)
swirl angles up to 7 degrees may be acceptable,only if they occur less than 109
of the time or for infrequent pump operating conditions. The swirl meter
rotation should be reasonably steady,with no abrupt changes in direction when
rotating near the maximum allowable rate(angle).
• Time-averaged velocities at points in the throat of the bell should be within 109
of the cross-sectional area average velocity.
■ Time-varying velocity fluctuations measured at a point should produce a
standard deviation from the time-averaged signal of less than 10%.
Model Scale
Scale hydraulic models require that the force relationships in the model and prototype
are dynamically similar.To achieve this similarity, inertial to gravity, pressure,viscous,
8CRUA PHASE 2 DEEP WATER INTAKE Page 11
CFD,HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS,and PHYSICAL MODELING SCOPE OF WORK-NHC Updated Proposal
nhc
and surface tension forces must be the same between model and prototype;only a 1:1
scale model can achieve these criteria. Modeling at reduced scale involves identifying
the primary force relationship to accurately simulate prototype conditions,then
selecting a model scale to minimize any scale effects.
For free-surface flow conditions, inertial and gravitational forces are the dominant
farces that define the hydrodynamic flow conditions.As a result,the Froude number, as
defined below,is the key force ratio that must be equal in the model and prototype.
That is,

effects.Also,the model should be large enough to allow flow visualization,accurate
measurements of flow pre-swirl and pump inlet velocities,and sufficient dimensional
control.The Reynolds number relates to viscous effects and the Weber number relates
to surface tension effects,as defined below.

Based on HI (2012)3,the influence of viscous and surface tension forces is negligible if
the Reynolds number and Weber number at the model suction bell inlet are above
6x10 and 240, respectively.
Based on the above-mentioned scaling criteria, NMC proposes to construct and test a
1:5 scale physical model.This scale will be confirmed once the recommended design is

selected.Adherence to the Froude criterion for dynamic similarity leads to the following
range of scale ratios:
Modell Scale Relationships
Parameter Relation Ratio
Length Lr 1 :5.0
Velocity L,112 1:2.24
Discharge LrS12 1 :55.9
Model Description
The model will be fabricated to include a section of the 96-inch diameter inlet conduit
tunnel extending upstream at least 10 diameters from the pump station,the junction
into the wet well,the wet well configuration determined under Task 7.2, and ten (10)
pumps.The wet well will include any support structures that may impact flow to the
pumps. For budgeting purposes NHC has assumed that the pumps selected will be
vertical turbine pumps.The model will extend vertically 30-ft(prototype)above the wet
well floor.
The model basin will be mounted on a raised wooden deck framed with dimensional
lumber,and sheathed with clear acrylic plastic to permit visualization of the flow
patterns throughout.The pump suction piping will be fabricated from acrylic plastic to
permit visualization of the flow in the wet well and pumps,and for dimensional control.
Flow will be circulated through the model using a centrifugal laboratory pump with the
model inflow controlled using a butterfly valve installed downstream from the
laboratory pump. Model inflow rates will be adjusted with a butterfly valve installed in
the model discharge lines.The estimated total floor space required for the model
(including space for the laboratory pump and viewing) is estimated at approximately 30
ft x 30 ft(900 ft').
Model Measurements
The following measurements will be required for the physical model study:
Flow Rate-The model inflow rates will be measured in the model supply lines using
either an orifice-plate flow meter with an air-water manometer used to measure the
pressure differential,or an ultrasonic flow meter. Practicality and ease of model piping
will be used to determine which measurement device is best suited for this particular
project. Individual pump flows will be determined using elbow meters that measure the
pressure differential between the inside and outside of an elbow installed in the
discharge line for each model pump.These elbow meters will be calibrated in-place
using the orifice-plate flow meter or ultrasonic flow meter. Experience with these
BCRUA PHASE 2 DEEP WATER INTAKE Page 13
CFD,HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS,and PHYSICAL MODELING,SCOPE OF WORK-NHC Updated Proposal
nhc
discharge measurement techniques has shown that the measured flow rates are
accurate to within two percent.
Free-Surface and Subsurfpce Vortices-Vortices within the wet wells and in the vicinity
of the pump bells will be measured by visual observation using dye and will be based on
the ANSI/Hl 9.8 vortex strength scale.
Water Levels-Staff gages will be placed throughout the wet well and screening
chamber to provide water level measurements.Water level measurements will be
accurate to nearest 0.1 ft(prototype).
Flow Pre-swirl-A swirl meter installed in each pump will provide a measure of intensity
of swirl.The swirl meters will consist of four neutrally-pitched vanes installed
approximately four pipe diameters downstream of the beginning of the instrumentation
spool piece.Swirl angles will be computed from the angular velocity of the swirl meter
and the axial flow rate.
Flow Patterns-Colored dye will be used to document the flow patterns in the wet well
and entering the pump bells.
Velocity Distribution at the Pump Impeller Location—Velocities will be measured at the
impeller location at two pumps.The pump inlet velocities in each modeled pump that
has a velocity probe will be measured using a miniature propeller velocity probe and a
Pitot tube installed in an instrumentation spool equipped with a turn-column that will
allow positioning of the instrumentation at any point in the plane of measurement on a
constant radii (8 locations will be monitored).The velocity probe will be connected to a
computer that will record the probe readings and display the average velocity(and
other statistical values such as standard deviation, maximum, and minimum)over a
specified time period (typically 30—60 seconds model). Spatial velocity fluctuations will
be measured using the Pitot tube by taking the maximum and minimum recorded
velocities and dividing by the average velocity using all the measured points.
Photographs and Video-Still photographs and video footage will be taken throughout
the initial design and final design test phases to provide a visual documentation of the
model study progress and key results.
Location of Model
NHC's laboratories are located in our Edmonton,Alberta;Vancouver, S.C.; Montreal,
Quebec,and Seattle, WA offices,The decision on which laboratory will be uti[ized will be
made based on workload, resources,and space availability at the time when the project
commences.
Testing
Initial Design Testing- Upon completion of model construction and shakedown (i.e.,
tests to ensure that the model is functioning effectively over the full range of operating
conditions,and that the instrumentation is properly calibrated and fully functional),
8CRUA PHASE 2 DEEP WATER INTAKE Page 14
CFD,HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS,and PHYSICAL MODELING SCOPE OF WORK-NHC Updated Proposal
nhc
model tests will commence with evaluation of the initial design. It is assumed that ten
(10)tests will be sufficient to evaluate the initial design over the range of flows
specified.The operating combinations include different pump combinations and
different water levels.These pump and screen combinations will be developed with
H DR.
Design Development Testing,-Design development testing will be conducted to evaluate
possible geometry changes or additions to the initial configuration if unsatisfactory
pump performance is identified. Modifications are all expected to be restricted to
adding or modifying devices and/or structures within the wet well. Design modifications
will be developed in collaboration with HDR as required.
It is difficult to predict the number of design modifications that may be required to
achieve satisfactory hydraulic performance; however, based on experience with similar
studies previously conducted, NHC anticipates that fifteen (15)working days for the
Influent Pumping Station will be adequate to develop modifications to meet the
acceptance criteria.
Witness Test-A one-day witness test of the model study will be conducted for HDR
personnel and BCRUA.A"hands-on" demonstration of the model will be conducted.In
addition,the witness test will include a presentation of study results, including a brief
description of the model construction, scaling and instrumentation,and a summary of
the data collected.Two weeks advance notice of the demonstration will be provided to
HDR to assist in scheduling.
Detailed Documentation Testing of the Final Desron-After completion of design
development and witness testing, sixteen (16)tests will be conducted to confirm the
selected design. It is anticipated that the operating combinations include the same
operating combinations used in the Initial Design Testing plus six additional
combinations.The actual conditions to be examined in the model will be agreed upon
between HIR and NHC at the onset of detailed documentation testing.
Reporting
NHC will prepare a draft technical report summarizing the model study for review by
HDR.The report will contain descriptions of the models,scaling criteria,test procedures,
relevant color photographs, and complete descriptions of the test results,including
observations,tabular,and graphical data.The report will also provide details
(description and drawings)of all modifications and/or additions that were required to
correct any hydraulic anomalies or other unsatisfactory flow conditions.The draft report
will be submitted in electronic(PDF)format within two (Z) weeks of completing the
detailed documentation testing. Five (5) bound hardcopies and one electronic copy
(PDF)of the final report will be prepared within approximately one(1)week of receiving
a consolidated set of review comments.

All photographic and video documentation will be made available at no additional fee
following the test program.As an option, a fully narrated,edited summary video can be
prepared for the model study for an incremental charge.The video would include
footage of the model,a brief explanation of scaling and modeling methods, and selected
footage of initial and final design tests.The summary video would be approximately 15
to 20 minutes in length and provided in DVI]format.
Long Term Storage Requirement for the Pump Station Model for Final Design
From the preliminary design that is developed using the CFD model initially and then
using the physical model to optimize the design the design can change. In order to
hydraulically assess the impact of the changes a model is required.There are two
options: 1) maintain the physical model indefinitely in case the need arises,or 2)
calibrate the CFD model with the final design of the pump station from the physical
model and use the CFD model to evaluate any future changes.The physical model
would then be demolished, Calibrating the CFD model is much less costly than maintain
the physical model and that is what HDR selected.
Most state-of-the-art CFD software packages, like STAR-CCM+, use a second-order
turbulence closure to determined eddy viscosity and mixing, and do not contain
arbitrary parameters,except for the roughness height(of walls).The coefficients in the
turbulence model are considered global°and cannot be changed arbitrarily to match
field data.Therefore, mesh refinement,adjustment of the roughness height,and
switching of turbulence model will be part of the model calibration process. During
model calibration step,velocities computed by the CFO model will be compared against
data from the physical model. If match between the CFD model and data is not
acceptable, roughness height,mesh resolution,and turbulence model will be reviewed
and adjusted appropriately.Once an acceptable agreement is obtained,the CFD model
will be run for a significantly different operating scenario without any changes,except
the boundary conditions.An agreement between the computed results and the second
data set will provide a calibrated and validated CFD model.Otherwise,the calibration
and validation steps of the will be repeated. It should be noted that accurate and
reliable data from the physical model will be very important for this step of the CFD
model study.We have assumed that that up to three runs with different mesh
refinements, roughness height,and switching turbulence models will be required.A
short technical memorandum will be submitted.
The calibrated CFD model will be kept through final design of the pump station. if minor
changes are made to the design and CFD modeling is required, a level of effort will be
provided to undertake the work. If major changes to the design during final design then
the physical model may have to be rebuilt and tested,
