OSTI ID:6035341
Water-quality degradation and a need for precise answers to transport of pollutants by overland flow were studied with special reference to the evaporation pits located adjacent to streams in the oil-producing regions of eastern Kentucky. The practical shortcomings of the state-of-the-art kinematic wave are discussed, and a new mathematical-modeling approach for overland flows using the more-comprehensive diffusion wave is attempted as the first step in solving this problem. The physically justified boundary conditions for steep slopes is considered, and both numerical and analytical schemes are developed. Finally, the cases for which these techniques can be used are presented.
