Original Abstract

For a hydraulic design of a facility for rainwater infiltration, i.e. a design of the volume of the infiltration facility, the so-called coefficient of infiltration is introduced, determined by an infiltration test. The use of the coefficient of infiltration brings a number of uncertainties into the solution, arising particularly from different conditions in carrying out the infiltration test and in operating a real infiltration facility. This paper presents an analysis of factors that influence the process of infiltration and relating uncertainties that influence the determination of the storage volume of the infiltration facility. The effect of the individual factors on the design of the infiltration facility was analysed using numerical simulations by the software HYDRUS-2D. The uncertainties are expressed using partial reliability coefficients.
