Open AccessPerformance analysis and modelling of circular jets aeration in an open channel using soft computing techniques
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is an important parameter in assessing water quality. The reduction in DO concentration is the result of eutrophication, which degrades the quality of water. Aeration is the best way to e...
