An Unstructured Finite-volume Technique for Shallow-water Flows with Wetting and Drying Fronts
نویسندگان
چکیده
An unstructured finite volume numerical model is presented here for simulating shallow-water flows with wetting and drying fronts. The model is based on the Green’s theorem in combination with Chorin’s projection method. A 2-order upwind scheme coupled with a Least Square technique is used to handle convection terms. An Wetting and drying treatment is used in the present model to ensures the total mass conservation. To test it’s capacity and reliability, the present model is used to solve the Parabolic Bowl problem. We compare our numerical solutions with the corresponding analytical and existing standard numerical results. Excellent agreements are found in all the cases. Keywords—Finite volume method, Projection method, Shallow water, Unstructured grid, wetting/drying fronts.

A projection method-based model with the exact C-property for shallow-water flows over dry and irregular bottom using unstructured finite-volume technique
A numerical model is presented for simulating shallow-water flows over dry and irregular bottom. The model is based on a projection method, which consists of combining the momentum and continuity equations in order to establish a Poisson-type equation for the water surface level. The computed domain is discretised by finite volumes on an unstructured grid. A 2nd-order upwind scheme coupled with...
متن کاملAn explicit residual based approach for shallow water flows
We describe a fully explicit residual based construction to discretize the shallow water equations with friction on unstructured grids. The approach is by construction exactly well balanced for al the simple known steady equilibria, and it shows a super-covergent behavior for smooth non-trivial equilibria, as the implicit residual schemes considered in (Ricchiuto, J.Sci.Comp. 48,2011). Moreover...
متن کاملUnstructured Grid Finite-Volume Algorithm for Shallow-Water Flow and Scalar Transport with Wetting and Drying
A high-resolution, unstructured grid, finite-volume algorithm is developed for unsteady, two-dimensional, shallow-water flow and scalar transport over arbitrary topography with wetting and drying. The algorithm uses a grid of triangular cells to facilitate grid generation and localized refinement when modeling natural waterways. The algorithm uses Roe’s approximate Riemann solver to compute flu...
متن کاملA VFRoe scheme for 1D shallow water flows : wetting and drying simulation
A finite-volume method for the one-dimensional shallow-water equations including topographic source terms is presented. Exploiting an original idea by Leroux, the system of partial-differential equations is completed by a trivial equation for the bathymetry. By applying a change of variable, the system is given a celerity-speed formulation, and linearized. As a result, an approximate Riemann so...
متن کاملLocally Limited and Fully Conserved RKDG2 Shallow Water Solutions with Wetting and Drying
This work extends a well-balanced second-order Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG2) scheme to provide conservative simulations for shallow flows involving wetting and drying over irregular topographies with friction effects. For this purpose, a wetting and drying technique designed originally for a finite volume (FV) scheme is improved and implemented, which includes the discretization of...
