ABSTRACT:
A method of evaluating a gravity-type flow conveyance system is disclosed. The method includes the steps of identifying, quantifying and totaling all upstream inflow sources to compute an anticipated flow at a plurality of access points in the system. The actual depth of flow at each access point is then measured and converted to a theoretical flow for each access point. The anticipated flow and the theoretical flow are then compared to determine whether any restrictions on flow might exist in the system and also to prioritize further inspection and repair of the system.
