The underlying mechanism of two-phase flow characteristics in macro- and intermediate roughness conditions were analyzed in an experimental setup assembled at the Laboratory of Hydraulic Protection of the Territory (PITLAB) of the University of Pisa, Italy. Crushed angular rocks and hemispherical boulders were used to intensify the roughness of the bed. Flow rates per unit width ranging between 0.03 m^2/s and 0.09 m^2/s and slopes between 0.26 and 0.46 were tested over different arrangements of a rough bed. Analyses were mainly carried out in the inner flow region, which consists of both bubbly and intermediate flow regions. The findings revealed that the two-phase flow properties over the rough bed were much affected by rough bed arrangements. Turbulence features of two-phase flows over the rough bed were compared with those of the stepped chute data under similar flow conditions. Overall, the results highlight the flow features in the inner layers of the two-phase flow, showing that the maximum turbulence intensity decreases with the relative submergence, while the bubble frequency distribution is affected by the rough bed elements.展开更多

Hydraulics in the developed region is investigated in this paper systematically by a series of model and prototype investigations. It is verified that the velocity in the aeration region is the dominant factor. For the flow with an identical velocity but a different flow depth, the air concentration distributions are nearly the same. From the theory based on the formation of drops on the surface by the turbulent liquid jets and the vortex deformation, a formula to calculate the incremental depth is obtained by best correlating the model and prototype investigations. The formula is reasonable with less mean error than those obtained by other methods, which could recommended for the use in engineering designs.展开更多

Based on the theory of compressible the relations between the sonic speedand shock wave in high-velocity aerated flow were theoretically deduced. And comparisons withmeasured data were made. The theoretical and experimental results show the sonic speed in aeratedflow is merely of the order of several-dozen meters per second, and its minimum value is only 20m/s, which is far much less than that in water or air alone. So high subsonic flow, supersonic flowand transonic flow as well as compression wave, shock wave and expansion wave similarly toaerodnamics may be produced in high velocity aerated flow at the speed of the order of 50m/s. Hencethe influences of these compressible characteristics on high head discharge structures can not beneglected, especially on super high dams over 200m high.展开更多
