  1. HIGHLIGHTS OF OPEN CHANNEL HYDRAULICS AND SEDIMENT TRANSPORT Dam at Hiram Falls on the Saco River near Hiram, Maine, USA

  2. SIMPLIFICATION OF CHANNEL CROSS-SECTIONAL SHAPE River channel cross sections have complicated shapes. In a 1D analysis, it is appropriate to approximate the shape as a rectangle, so that B denotes channel width and H denotes channel depth (reflecting the cross-sectionally averaged depth of the actual cross-section). As was seen in Chapter 3, natural channels are generally wide in the sense that Hbf/Bbf << 1, where the subscript “bf” denotes “bankfull”. As a result the hydraulic radius Rh is usually approximated accurately by the average depth. In terms of a rectangular channel,

  3. THE SHIELDS NUMBER: A KEY DIMENSIONLESS PARAMETER QUANTIFYING SEDIMENT MOBILITY b = boundary shear stress at the bed (= bed drag force acting on the flow per unit bed area) [M/L/T2] c = Coulomb coefficient of resistance of a granule on a granular bed [1] Recalling that R = (s/) – 1, the Shields Number * is defined as It can be interpreted as a ratio scaling the ratio impelling force of flow drag acting on a particle to the Coulomb force resisting motion acting on the same particle, so that The characterization of bed mobility thus requires a quantification of boundary shear stress at the bed.

  4. QUANTIFICATION OF BOUNDARY SHEAR STRESS AT THE BED U = cross-sectionally averaged flow velocity ( depth-averaged flow velocity in the wide channels studied here) [L/T] u* = shear velocity [L/T] Cf = dimensionless bed resistance coefficient [1] Cz = dimensionless Chezy resistance coefficient [1]

  5. RESISTANCE RELATIONS FOR HYDRAULICALLY ROUGH FLOW Keulegan (1938) formulation: where  = 0.4 denotes the dimensionless Karman constant and ks = a roughness height characterizing the bumpiness of the bed [L]. Manning-Strickler formulation: where r is a dimensionless constant between 8 and 9. Parker (1991) suggested a value of r of 8.1 for gravel-bed streams. Roughness height over a flat bed (no bedforms): where Ds90 denotes the surface sediment size such that 90 percent of the surface material is finer, and nk is a dimensionless number between 1.5 and 3. For example, Kamphuis (1974) evaluated nk as equal to 2.

  6. COMPARISION OF KEULEGAN AND MANNING-STRICKLER RELATIONS r = 8.1 Note that Cz does not vary strongly with depth. It is often approximated as a constant in broad-brush calculations.

  7. TEST OF RESISTANCE RELATION AGAINST MOBILE-BED DATA WITHOUT BEDFORMS FROM LABORATORY FLUMES

  8. NORMAL FLOW Normal flow is an equilibrium state defined by a perfect balance between the downstream gravitational impelling force and resistive bed force. The resulting flow is constant in time and in the downstream, or x direction. • Parameters: • x = downstream coordinate [L] • H = flow depth [L] • U = flow velocity [L/T] • qw = water discharge per unit width [L2T-1] • B = width [L] • Qw = qwB = water discharge [L3/T] • g = acceleration of gravity [L/T2] • = bed angle [1] tb = bed boundary shear stress [M/L/T2] • S = tan = streamwise bed slope [1] • (cos   1; sin   tan   S) • = water density [M/L3] As can be seen from Chapter 3, the bed slope angle  of the great majority of alluvial rivers is sufficiently small to allow the approximations

  9. NORMAL FLOW contd. Conservation of water mass (= conservation of water volume as water can be treated as incompressible): Conservation of downstream momentum: Impelling force (downstream component of weight of water) = resistive force Reduce to obtain depth-slope product rule for normal flow:

  10. ESTIMATED CHEZY RESISTANCE COEFFICIENTS FOR BANKFULL FLOW BASED ON NORMAL FLOW ASSUMPTION FOR u* The plot below is from Chapter 3

  11. RELATION BETWEEN qw, S and H AT NORMAL EQUILIBRIUM Reduce the relation for momentum conservation b = gHS with the resistance form b = CfU2: Generalized Chezy velocity relation or Further eliminating U with the relation for water mass conservation qw = UH and solving for flow depth: Relation for Shields stress  at normal equilibrium: (for sediment mobility calculations)

  12. ESTIMATED SHIELDS NUMBERS FOR BANKFULL FLOW BASED ON NORMAL FLOW ASSUMPTION FOR b The plot below is from Chapter 3

  13. RELATIONS AT NORMAL EQUILIBRIUM WITH MANNING-STRICKLER RESISTANCE FORMULATION Solve for H to find Solve for U to find Manning-Strickler velocity relation (n = Manning’s “n”) Relation for Shields stress  at normal equilibrium: (for sediment mobility calculations)

  14. BUT NOT ALL OPEN-CHANNEL FLOWS ARE AT OR CLOSE TO EQUILIBRIUM! And therefore the calculation of bed shear stress as b = gHS is not always accurate. In such cases it is necessary to compute the disquilibrium (e.g. gradually varied) flow and calculate the bed shear stress from the relation Flow over a free overfall (waterfall) usually takes the form of an M2 curve. Flow into standing water (lake or reservoir) usually takes the form of an M1 curve. A key dimensionless parameter describing the way in which open-channel flow can deviate from normal equilibrium is the Froude number Fr:

  15. NON-STEADY, NON-UNIFORM 1D OPEN CHANNEL FLOWS: St. Venant Shallow Water Equations • x = boundary (bed) attached nearly horizontal coordinate [L] • y = upward normal coordinate [L] • = bed elevation [L] S = tan  - /x [1] H = normal (nearly vertical) flow depth [L] Here “normal” means “perpendicular to the bed” and has nothing to do with normal flow in the sense of equilibrium. Bed and water surface slopes exaggerated below for clarity. Relation for water mass conservation (continuity): Relation for momentum conservation:
