A series of flume experiments are carried out. According to the orientation of groynes, angles from the flow direction to the axis of the groyne used in the experiments are assorted into obtuse angle, right angle, and acute angle as well. For each arrangement option, flow conditions are classified as the submerged and the non-submerged one. Velocities and the water level affected by single groyne or double-groyne are measured. The calculated results are agreement well with the experimental data. Because of the high demands in the mesh quality and the computer capability, the VOF technique is seldom used to simulate the natural river. In this paper, the VOF technique is also used to simulate the Panjiatai Shoal of 2km long, one of the important improvement reaches in the Yellow River. Two improvement schemes are compared and analyzed, and the better one is recommended.展开更多

文摘In this paper, Volume Of Fluid (VOF) technique is used to simulate the free surface and the flow field affected by the groynes in the experimental flume and the natural river. A series of flume experiments are carried out. According to the orientation of groynes, angles from the flow direction to the axis of the groyne used in the experiments are assorted into obtuse angle, right angle, and acute angle as well. For each arrangement option, flow conditions are classified as the submerged and the non-submerged one. Velocities and the water level affected by single groyne or double-groyne are measured. The calculated results are agreement well with the experimental data. Because of the high demands in the mesh quality and the computer capability, the VOF technique is seldom used to simulate the natural river. In this paper, the VOF technique is also used to simulate the Panjiatai Shoal of 2km long, one of the important improvement reaches in the Yellow River.
