Principles of Seepage

In hydrology, when water flows down in a pore or crack of unsaturated soil due to gravity, the deep layer of soil is called seepage. It is the slow movement of water in the soil layer. Seepage is mainly found near hydraulic structures and is responsible for the stability of earthen-type hydraulic structures.

The flocculation basin is to be divided into 3 sections of equal volume, each section having constant velocity gradients of 50, 35, 25s-¹, respectively. The total flocculation time is to be 21 min and the water temperature is 15° C. The timber baffles have a roughness coefficient of 0.3.
