Abstract
<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title><jats:p>A simple model of gross solids' movement in sewers is proposed, based upon the results of studies of part‐full pipe flow in two laboratory installations, under steady and unsteady flow conditions. The model covers advection and deposition, and is intended as one component in a comprehensive model of the behaviour of gross solids in sewers. Such a model is needed because gross solids are not included in the currently available sewer‐flow quality models, even though they can cause pollution which is of particular concern to the public</jats:p><jats:p>The paper describes the laboratory studies and their results. It sets out the principles of the proposed model and explains why these differ from existing models of dissolved and fine suspended pollutants.</jats:p>
