水的物理控制仍然是处理厂设计中最具挑战性但被忽视的方面之一。如果没有足够的流量分配，即使是最先进的处理工艺也可能变得无效。本文介绍了有关流量分配和入口条件的基本理论，并说明了如何将这些原则应用于实际设计。主题包括通过使用湍流射流理论来估计处理列之间的流量分布，并最小化池内的短路。包括6个参考文献、表格、图表。

The physical control of water remains one of the most challenging yet overlooked aspects of treatment plant design. Without adequate flow distribution, even the most state-of-the-art treatment processes can be rendered ineffective. This paper presents established basic theory concerning flow distribution and inlet conditions and then shows how to apply these principles to practical designs. Topics include estimating flow distribution among treatment trains and minimizing short-circuiting within basins through the use of turbulent jet theory. Includes 6 references, tables, figures.
