Effect of Upstream and Downstream Roughness on Scour Hole of Square Bridge Pile

Volume 25, Issue 2 (Summer 2021)
Abstract
To prevent demolishing bridge piles due to developing the scour hole under the foundation of these piles some solution has been proposed in the literature. One of the important approaches could be installing different geometric of roughness at the downstream and upstream piles sections. This causes the downward flows which are performing the main role in developing scour holes to be marginally decreased. The present study explores the effect of geometric roughness and also, continuity and un-continuity of roughness length on maximum scour holes around bridge pile. Results indicate that due to increasing the length of roughness the developed scour holes were formed by less scour hole depths. Furthermore, continuity of roughness increases the scour hole depths; however, un-continuity causes the height of scour holes to be developed by fewer values. Also, the comparison shows that the length of installed roughness in maximum value is decreasing the scour hole depth constitute 34 percent. Based on the non-linear regression technique an equation has been proposed to predict the maximum scour hole due to different conditions. Comparison between experimental and proposed values shows that the accuracy of the proposed equation has an acceptable error which has been calculated less than 11 percent.

Effect of Angle, Height of Support and Pipe Line Diameter Size on Scour Hole
N. Alami, M. Saneie, H. Haji Kandi,
Volume 26, Issue 1 (Spring 2022)
Abstract
Scouring holes under the oil, gas, and water pipelines threaten their stability by bending and demolishing. This phenomenon can cause damage to the environment and the oil and gas industry. The present study investigated the effect of the pipe diameter, the height of support, and the angle of the pipeline with flow direction by applying the experimental aspects to the cohesive sediments. The experiments were carried out by considering three angles of deviation as zero,15, and 30 degree based on the flow direction. Three opening gaps were considered through the experiments based on the pipe height as 0, D/2, and D/4 from the sand bed. Furthermore, three pipe diameters were employed to investigate the effect of diameter size. The results indicated that by increasing the angle of deviation, the height of scour hole decreased significantly, however, the raising the opening gap between pipe and bed increased the sediment deposition and it causes the height of scour hole is decreased consequently which was constituted approximately 18 percent. Moreover, the pipe diameter affects the scour hole formation and its effect on a downward jet and horseshoe vortexes and the result indicate by increasing the piper diameter the scour hole is increased based on its effect on the flow configuration. Finally, based on the experimental data, an equation was estimated to predict the scour depth by employing the non-linear regression technique.
