Description:
This model replicates a steady-state test case described in Thomann and Mueller’s paper, “Principles of Surface Water Quality Modeling and Control.” The objective is to use EFDC+ Explorer (EE) and EFDC+ to simulate contaminant transport in a one-dimensional river system using a conservative dye tracer.
The test case represents the discharge of municipal wastewater from an urban area into a relatively small river under average annual flow conditions. The wastewater is assumed to be treated by a trickling filter plant prior to discharge. A dye tracer is used as a surrogate to represent contaminant transport, providing a simplified framework for evaluating model performance.
