Flow resistance of vegetated oblique weir-like obstacles during high water stages

چکیده

At high water stages, obstacles (submerged and particularly emerged vegetation) in the flood plains of a river contribute to the flow resistance and hamper the conveyance capacity. In particular the elevated vegetated parts are expected to play an important role. The objective of this research work is to determine the form drag due to vegetated oblique weir-like obstacles. Experiments have been performed to measure the energy head losses for a range of subcritical flow conditions, varying discharges and downstream water levels. The energy head loss caused by the submerged vegetated weir-like obstacle has been modeled using an expansion loss form drag model that has been derived from the one-dimensional momentum conservation equation and accounts for the energy loss associated with a deceleration of the flow downstream of a sudden expansion. The results have been compared with the experimental data and showed an overall good agreement.

The Form drag due to vegetated weir-like obstacles interpreted as expansion losses

The Objective of this study is to estimate the form drag due to vegetated weirlike obstacles. Head loss due to submerged vegetated dikes and groins has been modeled by expansion loss form drag model (Energy and momentum balance principles) and it has been compared with experimental data. An experimental study has been carried out on a scaled physical model in the Laboratory of Environmental Flu...

ِِDischarge Coefficient in Oblique Side Weirs

Side weirs are flow diversion devices that are widely used in irrigation, drainage and urban sewage systems. The present study focuses on the investigation of the effect of oblique side weirs on the discharge coefficient of a side weir under subcritical flow condition in rectangular channels. In this study 106 laboratory tests were conducted and the results were analyzed to find out the influen...
