Abstract
AbstractThis paper presents measurements of velocity profiles obtained from idealized dam-break experiments and results from numerical simulations of these experiments. Dam-break flows were generated in the laboratory by suddenly lifting a gate inside a flume for three different upstream heads with a dry-bed downstream condition. Ultrasonic Doppler velocity profilers were used for recording transient velocity profiles at eight different locations upstream and downstream of the removed gate. These experiments provided data on the spatio-temporal evolution of the flow field in an unsteady flow of relatively short duration. The two-dimensional experiments were simulated using a computational fluid dynamics solver. The following observations are made: (1) turbulence modeling does not affect the velocity profile in the upstream reservoir, but has significant influence on the prediction of downstream velocity; (2) the velocity magnitude at a specific location changes with time, but the shape of the velocity pro...
