| Research Abstract |
It has been known that shear instability generates large horizontal vortices at the junctions of main channel and flood plains in two-stage channel. A series of laboratory tests were performed by varying the main channel width, and the tests were conducted for 3 cases of water depth. Fluid velocity and water surface elevation were measured by using laser-Doppler velocimetry and capacity-type wave gage, respectively. It was found that two arrays of vortex streets become very stable at b/H=5, in which b is main channel width and H is main channel depth. The Reynolds stress at the junction shows a peak value at b/H=5 for all cases of water depth. The wavelength of vortices was predicted successfully in terms of linear instability analysis.
A series of laboratory tests were also performed in open channel flows with bank vegetation, in which the flow fields become more 2-dimensional than compound open channel flow. Similarly in compound open channel flow, when the vortex streets becomes stable staggered array, the Reynolds stress takes a peak value. The peak value of Reynolds stress is larger than that of compound open channel flow. A numerical computation employing SDS and 2DH turbulence model originally proposed by Nadaoka and Yagi was performed to calculate the 2-dimanesional flow field, supporting the measurements.
