The bore or the hydraulic jump is the main concentration. The experimental results are varied;this includes velocity results and geometrical ones related to the depths, phases, and lengths. For the geometrical ones a Coupled-Charged Device Camera (CCD) is used to extract pictures, those enable us to get quantitative and qualitative results. For the velocity results, Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV) is used to extract the velocity signals under the bore surface, after analyzing them it turned out that they have Cnoidal form, thus a new BBM model is derived, which is exactly as the one derived by Peregrine (1966), the only difference is the forcing gravity term, this model is solved analytically after omitting this gravity term as it is considered small, and the solution is compared with the real signals with good match. Finally, a new relationship that connects between the conjugate depths after and before the bore is derived which has time-space dependency due to the Centrifugal effect, it was also used and compared with some experimental results.展开更多

Similar to the flow in a compound channel, there are mixing layers adjacent to the interface between the vegetation and the non-vegetation lanes, and a lateral momentum exchange occurs between the slow- moving water in the former lane and the fast-moving water in the latter lane. Under a uniform flow condition, the three-dimensional with different discharges and water depths are (3D) instantaneous velocities of two cases measured with a 16 MHz acoustic Doppler velocimeter (micro ADV). The longitudinal variation of the streamwise velocity and the vertical variation of the Reynolds stress are analyzed. A quadrant analysis is carried out to investigate the outward and inward interaction, ejection, and sweep phenomenon caused by the vegetation variation across the channel. The results show that the flow characteristics in the vegetation lane are similar to those in an open channel fully covered with submerged vegetation, and the flow characteristics in the smooth non-vegetation lane are similar to those in a free open channel. For the cases studied here, the width of the mixing region is about 10~ of the channel width, and the mixing region is mainly on the non-vegetation half.展开更多

Under immobile bed condition, grains of sand were glued uniformly and tightly onto the shear plate, being prevented from motion with the fluid flow and generation of sand ripples. The distribution of the bottom mean shear stress varying with time was measured by examining the interaction between the shear plate and shear transducers. The relation between the force measured by the shear transducers and its voltage is a linear one. Simultaneous measurements of the bottom velocity were carried out by an Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV), while the whole process was completely controlled by computers, bottom shear stress and velocity were synchronously measured. Based on the experimental results, it can be concluded that (1) the friction coefficient groews considerably with the increase of the Reynolds number, (2) the shear stress is a function varying with time and linearly proportional to the velocity. Compared with theoretical results and previous experimental data, it is shown that the experimental method is feasible and effective, A further study on the bed shear stress under regular or irregular waves can be carried out. And applicability to the laboratory studies on the initiation of sediments and the measurement of the shear stress after sediment imigration.展开更多

Hot water jet was projected downwards at dif fercnt angles from a slot into a uniform cross flow. Micro Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (Micro ADV) system is used to measure the velocity and turbulent fluxes of Reynolds stresses. The whole field temperatures were measured with fast response thermocouples. Pure jets experiments were made also to study the effect of buoyancy in negatively buoyant jets. It is found that the influenced area of hot jets is larger than which of pure jets when the jet angle is 90° and the influenced area of hot jets is smaller than which of pure jets when the jet angle is 45°. The difference is not obvious at 60° angle jets. This means that the rising of temperature has effect not only on negatively buoyancy, but also on the intensity of turbulence. The contrast of these two influences dominates the trend of jet flow.展开更多
