abstract study of turbidity current hydrodynamics plays an important role in increasing the economical life of dams though reduction in sediment accumulation. in the present experimental study, the effect of entrance densimetric froude number of turbidity current in sub and super critical conditions (fr =0.6-3.5) have been tested through effect of channel slope and change related to opening hei...

A physical model of gabion overflow dams was studied to determine the velocity profile and Reynolds shear stress. Physical tests were done under two different conditions of dam crest, overflow dams with impermeable and with permeable crests. Instantaneous velocity components over dam crest were measured by an ADV (Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter) instrument. This instrument is capable of measuring...

designing and manufacturing the multiple jets simulator and experimental investigation of the multiple jets in crossflow at low velocity ratios have been studied together with design and build a low-speed wind tunnel. a specific rake is used to determine the flow field pressure and changes in static pressure measured by pressure taps in the near field of the jets. there are generally three regi...

In order to investigate the influence of the vertical variation of porosity on open-channel flow with submerged vegetation, vertical non-homogeneous stumps and stems in submerged vegetation flow are simulated with truncated cones in a laboratory flume. First, porosity is defined as a function of water depth. A new governing equation for vegetation flow is established on the basis of the poroela...

MHD boundary layer flow of two phase model nanofluid over a vertical plate is investigated both analytically and numerically. A system of governing nonlinear partial differential equations is converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by suitable similarity transformations and then solved analytically using homotopy analysis method and numerically by the fourth order Rung...
