Good day and I will appreciate your help a lot.
We engineer a vanishing edge pool with wet wall effect. Is is just decirative pool, not for swimming, just 2,5 m3 water volume. And weir flow rate is apprx 11,8 m3 per hour. Weir length is about 11 meters long.
The concrete gutter is planned all along the length of weir.
The Question is _ how many gutter drains should be planned and drains diameter.
Our engineer insists that one drain of 2-1/2 " diameter is enough, considering the slope. But how 3,3 liters per second can pass through this?
According to my calculations we need at least 2 drains with diameter of 3" each.
But he says it is too much for such a small pool and wet wall effect.
Your help will be highly appreciated.
