Prediction of Scour Profile Caused by Submerged Three-Dimensional Wall Jets
نویسندگان
چکیده
Series of laboratory tests were carried out to study the extent of scour caused by a three-dimensional wall jets exiting from a square cross-section nozzle and into a non-cohesive sand beds. Previous observations have indicated that the effect of the tail water depth was significant for densimetric Froude number greater than ten. However, the present results indicate that the cut off value could be lower depending on the value of grain size-to-nozzle width ratio. Numbers of equations are drawn out for a better scaling of numerous scour parameters. Also suggested the empirical prediction of scour to predict the scour centre line profile and plan view of scour profile at any particular time. Keywords—Densimetric Froude Number, Jets, Nozzle, Sand, Scour, Tailwater, Time.

Simulation of local scour caused by submerged horizontal jets with Flow-3D numerical model
One of the most concerning issues for researchers is to predict the shape and dimensions of the scour pit nearhydraulic structures such as the base of bridges, weirs, valves and stilling basins due to both financial and humanhazards induced by destruction of the structure. As the scour issue has its own complexity in relation to themultiplicity of effecting factors on it, in this study therefor...
متن کاملScour Caused by Three-Dimensional Submerged Square Wall Jet: Sand Deposition in Scour Hole and Ridge
Laboratory tests were carried out to assess the local scour by three-dimensional wall jets from a square crosssection nozzle. To this end, three different tailwater depths were used and the jet expansion ratio was held greater than ten. Velocity measurements were conducted using a one component laser Doppler anemometer. The jet exit Reynolds number was maintained to 1x10 and this value can be c...

متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Flow Pattern around the Bridge Pier with Submerged Vanes
Bridges are very important for establishing communication paths. For this reason, it is important to control scour around bridge piers. Several methods have been proposed for scour control. One of the most useful methods is the use of submerged vanes. In the other hand, laboratory circumstances force many considered effective factors to be skipped in the scour phenomenon. In this situation, the...

Wall-jet flow is an important flow field in hydraulic engineering, and its applications include flow from the bottom outlet of dams and sluice gates. In this paper, the plane turbulent wall jet in shallow tailwater is simulated by solving the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations using the standard turbulence closure model. This study aims to explore the ability of a time splitting method ...
