Consequences of solids entry
According to Macke, the wall shear stress should be at least 1.0 N/m2 in order to prevent build up [Macke82].
The design proposal by Macke was adopted by the ATV (today the DWA German Association for Water, Wastewater and Waste) and has been included since 1988 in ATV-A 110 as a table. This also includes the assumptions based on the minimum flow velocity and the minimum gradient depending on the channel diameter [ATVA110:1988].
