This paper aimed to justify the performance of a non-oscillatory TPA-based model proposed by the authors for capturing transient mix flow in sewer systems consisting of a variety of pipe shapes. The model utilizes a first-order Godunov Finite volume numerical scheme in which a Harten–Lax–van Leer (HLL) Riemann solver was used for calculating the fluxes at the cells’ boundaries. The spurious numerical solution associated with the transient mix flow analysis is suppressed by enhancing the numerical viscosity of the scheme when the pipe pressurization is imminent. Due to the lack of experimental data for systems with pipe shapes other than circular and rectangular, a hypothetical pipe system for which analytical solutions exist was employed to verify the model performance. The results reveal that for all pipe shapes considered, the model provides oscillation-free solutions even at a high acoustic speed of 1400 m/s. It is also observed that the numerical results are in perfect agreement with the analytical solution. The obtained results conclude that the proposed model can be utilized to capture transient responses of sewer systems with any pipe shape.
