Limestone Rock Outfall
Limestone Rock Outfall
(OP)
We have a situation where we are designing an underground (roadway on top of it) limestone rock outfall (150'L x 20'W x 4'D) that will transfer water from a pond for treatment. At the end of the rock outfall we will have a culvert to discharge flows downstream. The culvert is easy enough to model but would anyone know how to calculate flows through the limestone rock outfall?
Thanks
Thanks

If you find an answer, post it here. I've never seen a great treatment of the subject in the academic literature. It's a tough problem. It would need to be studied in the lab, because the assumptions for darcy flow in porous media break down.
