Three-Dimensional Structure of the Flow at an Open-Channel Confluence

Impact of the Confluence Angle on Flow Field and Flowmeter Accuracy in Open Channel Junctions

Open channel junction is one of the most common hydraulic structures that are used in various practical situations such as sewer, drainage, and flood control systems. Knowing the fluid flow behavior, is one of the most important topics in designing the efficient open channel junctions. The complexity and deviation of flow in the junction’s zone disrupts the proper functioning of the flowmeter d...

the effects of changing roughness on the flow structure in the bends

flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...

Three-Dimensional Simulation of Qeshm Channel Currents

Qeshm Channel is a shallow and narrow waterway located between Qeshm Island and the mainland in the vicinity of Hormuzgan Province, Islamic Republic of Iran. This channel is important because of its economic, industrial, fisheries and navigation role it plays as well as environmental issues it presents in the region. A prognostic study was performed to simulate currents in this channel, using C...

Numerical analysis of on the effects of Hydrokinetic turbine presence in flow structure of a compound open-channel

In the recent years, due to the hydropower plants environmental problems, hydrokinetic turbine usages has been increased. Using such turbines in rivers modify natural flow-field. In previous studies, impacts of turbine on the flow-field just only in rectangular open-channel is studied. In this work, the effects of hydrokinetic turbine in a straight compound channel has been numerically studied ...
