Volume 18, Issue 69 (fall 2014)
Abstract

While the mass density current penetrates the stagnant fluid, a plunge point occurs. In this regard, the boundary of the dense fluid with ambient fluid is determined at the plunge point height. In this research, the hydraulic parameters of the dense flow and the bed slope of the stagnant fluid which have a significant effect on the plunge point have been investigated under the two turbulence models: the k- and the RNG at the Flow-3D model. To achieve the purpose of this research, a physical model was set up at the hydraulics laboratory of Shahid Chamran University (SCU), Ahwaz, Iran. Then, using the Flow-3D model with both the k- and the RNG turbulence model, the height of the plunge point was simulated according to the same experimental condition. Findings showed that the predicted depth under the RNG model is closer to the results of the physical model. For example, the k- and RNG model for the 12% slope can estimate the plunge point depth by 30% and 12.28% respectively more than the experimental data. However, for all the slopes, the k-e model can on average overestimate by 27% and RNG model 10.5% more than the results of experimental data. The statistical analysis showed that the RNG model predicts the plunge point depths with a satisfactory precision.

Volume 20, Issue 75 (Spring 2016)
Abstract

In this research dense fluid discharge was experimentally investigated under the surface jet in the shallow acceptor. The investigated parameters were depth of the acceptor ambient, flow rate and the concentration of surface jet. In order to investigate the relationship between these parameters, a physical model experiments were performed in the hydraulic laboratory of Shahid Chamran University. The results showed that progressive length of the surface jet core is directly proportional to Froude number of fluid density, and is inversly proportional to fluid density concentration. Besides, the progressive length of the jet core increases with increasing the depth of the acceptor ambient. This length increase is due to the decrease of water surface tension. In average, increasing the depth of acceptor ambient twice, the progressive length will increase 38%, and its increasing three times, will increase progressive length of jet core 62%. Besides, in the relationship obtained for the progressive length of jet core R 2 is 0.94.

Abstract

The last two decades have seen increasing applications of digital terrain modeling in hydrological, geomorphological, pedagogical, and biological research, aided by rapid advancement of geographic information system (GIS). Hydrologic models are sensitive to change in the input values to the model, so the change of pixel size input data affects the output values of the model and produces different significant results. In this study, using topographic maps 1:25000 and 1:50000 and choosing ten pixel sizes (10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 75, 80, 100, and 200) and software Arc GIS and HEC-HMS, output values of HEC-HMS model have been studied. Results of this study indicate that accuracy of peak discharge calculated by HEC-HMS model in the spatial scale map 1:50000 is more than the peak discharge calculated by HEC-HMS model in the spatial scale map 1:25000. Also accuracy of the calculated peak flows in a smaller pixel sizes (20 to 50) is more than the larger pixel sizes.


Investigating the Discharge Conditions of the Circular Buoyant Co-flow Jet in the Infinitely Shallow Water
J. Ahadiyan, B. Mardasi,
Volume 22, Issue 1 (Spring 2018)
Abstract
Discharge of contaminants in the acceptor ambient has negative environmental impacts. Extremely shallow acceptor ambient conditions will have a significant impact on the diffusion of the contaminants flow. To achieve the effect of the hydraulic, geometric and environmental conditions of the contaminant flow in the acceptor ambient, an experimental model of surface draining was applied. The model consisted of a flume with 3.2 meters length, 0.6 meters width and 0.9 height. Accordingly, by considering three simple single drainers with the diameters of 1.2, 1.6 and 2.2 centimeters, a dense flow with 20, 40 and 60 g/L concentrations occurred in an acceptor ambient with H/d = 2. The results showed that equilibrium length was extremely decreased by increasing the concentrations; this was such that with increasing the concentration three times from 20 to 60 g/L, this length was decreased from 25 to 10. However,  based on  the results, it was found that the effect of  the changes of  the viscosity parameter over the relative length was significant, as its effect was high in all concentrations to 100; then it tended  to become a constant value.. In this regard, the effect of changes in the surface tension parameters over the relative length was investigated; the results showed that this parameter was always effective in the extremely shallow acceptor ambient at all stages from the beginning to the end of the  progress. It is important to note that this had a constant slope in all concentrations and surface tension had an effect on flow diffusion with a certain trend in all concentrations. In fact, surface tension in all concentrations reached to 5 after the equilibrium length and jet energy dissipation area.

Analyzing Piezometers’ Behavior to Determine the Lag Time of the Rainfall Effects on the Groundwater Level Fluctuations in the Alluvial Plain of Shiraz by Using SPI and GRI Indices
M. Noshadi, A. Ahadi,
Volume 23, Issue 4 (winter 2020)
Abstract
Groundwater supplies a major portion of two basic human needs: drinking and agricultural water. Forecasting, monitoring, evaluating the performance and planning of this vital resource require modelling. The lag time of the groundwater level fluctuations against the rainfall is one of the essential data of the models. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the piezometers behaviour by using the Pearson cross-correlation method between SPI and GRI indices in the Shiraz alluvial plain in order to determine the mentioned lag time. The results showed a similar behaviour for 86.2% of the piezometers. In 79.3% of the piezometers, groundwater level was declined one month after the rainfall event. The best correlation coefficient between the aforementioned indices was observed along the southwestern to the northeastern axis of the plain. The northern alluvial plain has a better correlation, as compared to the southern section because of the northern-southern slope of the plain. The central area of the plain had the highest correlation coefficient. The maximum correlation coefficients occurred at a time scale of 48 months. Also, since 2004, due to the decline in the atmospheric precipitation in the Shiraz plain, the SPI index has surpassed the drought level, although the trend has not been significant. However, the GRI does not follow this trend, showing a significant hydrological drought. The reason can be the disproportionate water extraction to recharge ratio in the alluvial aquifer of the plain.

Evaluation of Energy Dissipation and Flow Rate of Elliptical-Lopac Gate under Sudden Transition Condition
H. Kheibar, S. M. Sajjadi, J. Ahadiyan,
Volume 24, Issue 3 (Fall 2020)
Abstract
Lopac gates, with the benefits of easy installation, automation and the ability to pass sediments and floating objects, are among the new structures considered for water level regulation and flow control in the irrigation canals. Converting the shape of the gate from a rectangular one to an elliptical one allows the flow rate to be increased by the same water level. In the present study, the effect of the sudden transition on the discharge and energy dissipation of the elliptical-lopac gate (ELG) in the submerged flow conditions was evaluated in the laboratory. The results showed that the dimensionless discharge and energy dissipation of the ELG with sudden transition to channel width conditions was decreased by 28 to 86% and increased by 11 to 35%, respectively. Finally, the statistical equations were presented to estimate the dimensionless discharge and energy dissipation of ELG by sudden transition under submerged flow conditions with a maximum error of 16%.
