flow discharge in bottom intakes with porous media
Authors
abstract
abstract bottom intake is one of the most appropriate systems for diverting discharge in steep rivers. bottom intake with porous media is a new system of diverting discharge which can be replaced by bottom rack intakes. to investigate the hydraulic flow characteristics on diverted discharge of this intake, an experimental model was designed in which the inflow, diverted discharge and remained flow of porous media intake can be measured. in the present research, measurements of the diverted discharge were performed for different rates of flow, grain size distributions as well as surface slopes of intake with clear water. according to the obtained results, by increasing the inflow discharge, the rate of diverted discharge increases gradually and then reaches to a constant value. any increment of the surface slope above the intake also decrease the relation diverted flow. it is found that the grain size of the porous media has a great influence on the diverted flow. by increasing the grain size diverted flow increases, too. dimensional analysis and experimental results were used to estimate the discharge coefficient of porous media. analytical analysis on experimental data shows that the discharge coefficient of porous media intake is about 0.1. also an empirical-theoretical relation is proposed to evaluate the diverted discharge of this kind of bottom intakes.

The transport of substances back and forth between surface water and groundwater is a very serious problem. We study herein the mathematical model of this setting consisting of the Stokes equations in the fluid region coupled with the Darcy equations in the porous medium, coupled across the interface by the Beavers–Joseph–Saffman conditions. We prove existence of weak solutions and give a compl...

One of the causes of perturbation at vertical intakes is the happening of vortices with an air core. The vortices with an air core occur whenever the submergence of the intake is less than a critical value. Anti-vortex devices and specially plates are used to avoid the negative effects of the air-core vortices. If plates are used, then the geometry of them should be studied experimentally. Acco...

We numerically simulate the traveling time of a tracer in convective flow between two points (injection and extraction) separated by a distance r in a model of porous media, d=2 percolation. We calculate and analyze the traveling time probability density function for two values of the fraction of connecting bonds p: the homogeneous case p=1 and the inhomogeneous critical threshold case p=p(c). ...
