As the flow may vary depending on the time of day and weather conditions, it is necessary to know the output rate of each outlet to judge if the network is in danger of saturation. These measurements are useful for, in particular, calculating the size of the network (for the creation of reservoirs or sewer inlet covers, etc.).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"block\"><div class=\"title\">DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICATION<\/div><div class=\"text\"><div class=\"text-container\"><p>\nThree-chord flow rate measurement of an egg-shaped sewer.
