Stepped weir of this study was suggested a type of natural type structures. Unique flow, such as Wave type flow, at downstream of mild slope stepped occurs. WTF(Wave type flow) is different with hydraulic jump occurred at Round crest weir. WTF is phenomenon to rise the water level by recirculation area occurred by step height at downstream of mild slope stepped. Wave height of WTF condition is higher than tailwater level and maximum velocity of WTF condition occurs in area of water surface. In this results, WTF presents to be important factor for design of join area of weir with levee. This study got and analyzed hydraulic condition occurred of WTF, scales of WTF and velocity profiles on flow patterns using experiments. WTF was not consider to stepped weir design and this results can be important data for design of stepped weir and structures.

This study suggests a new hydrostatic pressure distribution corrected for nonuniform flow over a channel of large slope. For analyzing shallow-water flows over large slope accurately, it is developed a finite-volume model incorporating the pressure distribution to the shallow water equations. Traveling speed of the hydraulic jump downstream a parabolic bump in the drain case is quite reduced by the weakened bottom gradient source term in the model with the pressure correction. In simulating the dam-break flow over a triangular sill, it is identified that the model with pressure correction could capture the water surface by the digital imaging measurements more than the model without that. Due to the pressure correction decreasing the reflected flows on and increasing overflows over the sill, there are good agreements in the experiment and the simulation with that. Therefore, this model is expected to be applied to such practical problems as flows in the spillway of dam or run-up on the beach.

A finite element model is studied to simulate unsteady free surface flow based on dynamic wave equation and collocation method. The collocation method is used in conjunction with Hermite polynomials, and resulting matrix equations are solved by skyline method. The model is verified by applying to hydraulic jump, nonlinear disturbance propagation and dam-break flow in a horizontal frictionless channel. The computed results are compared with those by Bubnov-Galerkin and Petrov-Galerkin methods. It is also applied to the North Han River to simulate the floodwave propagation. The computed results have good agreements with those of DWOPER model in terms of discharge hydrographs. The suggested model has proven to be one of the promising scheme for simulating the gradually and rapidly varied unsteady flow in open channels.

This study presents a numerical model for simulating turbidity currents using the ULTIMATE scheme. For this, the layer-averaged model is used. The model is applied to laboratory experiments, where the flume is composed of sloping and flat parts, and the characteristics of propagating turbidity currents are investigated. Due to the universal limiter of the ULTIMATE scheme, the frontal part of the turbidity currents at a sharp gradient without numerical oscillations is computed. Simulated turbidity currents propagate super-critically to the end of the flume, and internal hydraulic jumps occur at the break-in-slope after being affected by the downstream boundary. It is found that the hydraulic jumps are computed without numerical oscillations if Courant number is less than 1. In addition, factors that affect propagation velocity of turbidity currents is studied. The particle size less than $9{\mu}m$ does not affect propagation velocity but the buoyancy flux affects clearly. Finally, it is found that the numerical model computes the bed elevation change due to turbidity currents properly. Specifically, a discontinuity in the bed elevation, arisen from the hydraulic jumps and resulting difference in sediment entrainment, is observed.

Upwind schemes are very well adapted to the discontinuous flow and have become popular for applications Involving dam break flow, transcritical Slow, etc. However, upwind schemes have been applied mainly to the idealized problems not to the natural channels with irregular geometry so far because of the error due to source terms. In this paper, the new type of upwind discretization of source terms, which uses the normalized Jacobian to discretize the source terms, is proposed. As results of tests to flows with source terms by the upwind models, the method proposed in this paper is proved as efficient and accurate. This generalized method for differencing source terms is simple and might beapplicable to diverse type of flux upwind discretization scheme in finite difference method.

The prediction of the dynamic behaviors of buoyant water discharges into a large volume of water bodies, the flows of water accompanying the density differences due to temperature differences and sometimes also to salinity differences, have attracted great concern over several decades. Heated water surface discharges from power plants and freshwater discharges in estuaries are typical examples of the buoyant flows. (omitted)

This paper presents a numerical model for the simulations of 2D depth-averaged flows. The shallow water equations are solved numerically by the Characteristic Dissipative Galerkin (CDG) finite element method. For validation, the developed model is applied to the hydraulic jump. The computed results are compared with the analytical solution, revealing good agreement. In addition, flow in a contracting channel showing standing waves is simulated. The calculated water surface profile appears to be qualitatively consistent with the observed data. The foregoing results indicate that the model is capable of simulating the abrupt change in flow field. Next, the model is applied to the flow in a $180^{\circ}$ curved channel. The simulated results show that the velocity near the inner bank is faster than that near the outer bank and the water depth near the inner bank is shallower than that near the outer bank. However, the simulated results show that the velocity distribution across the channel is almost uniform in the bend except the reach close to the end of the bend. This is due to the limitation of the governing equations in which the transverse convection of momentum by the secondary flows along a channel bend is not taken into account.

수자원 공급의 시 공간적 편차가 큰 우리나라에서는 수자원을 이용하기 위해서 다수의 댐을 건설하고 있다. 특히, 생활수준의 향상으로 용수 수요가 급증하였기 때문에 용수가 부족한 곳에는 광역상수도 사업 등을 통하여 용수를 공급하고 있다. 댐에서 용수가 공급되기까지의 과정은 일종의 관수로 흐름으로 생각할 수 있다. 관수로 내를 흐르는 유체가 갑자기 정지하게 되면, 유체 운동 에너지의 변화가 유발되고, 그로 인해 관내에 급격한 압력의 상승이 일어나게 된다. 반대로 정지하고 있던 유체가 빠른 속도로 흐르게 되면 압력 감소가 급격하게 발생한다. 이와 같이 유체 운동 상태의 급변에 의한 압력변화와 그에 따른 압력파가 음속의 속도로 상 하류로 전파되는 현상을 수격작용(waterhammer)이라 한다. 통상적으로 수격작용은 밸브 개폐 정도가 갑자기 바뀔 때, 펌프의 급격한 기동이나 정지 시, 터빈 내 전력소요가 갑자기 바뀔 때, 댐 수위의 갑작스런 변화, 펌프 임펠러의 진동, 물 수요의 급격한 변화 등에 의해 발생하며, 수격작용은 유체의 질량과 운동량 때문에 관 벽에 큰 힘을 가하게 되어 정상적인 동수압 보다 몇 배나 큰 압력을 발생시킴으로 관 자체는 물론 펌프, 밸브, 터빈 등 관 시설물을 파손시키거나 진동, 소음 등을 야기시킴으로 대규모 건물, 공장, 발전소 등을 설계할 경우 그에 대한 적절한 대책을 강구하여야 한다. 특히 댐에 연결된 저수지 또는 조정지로부터의 도수로가 압력수로이며 그 길이가 상당히 크면 수차가 급정지했을 경우 수격작용에 의해서 압력터널 내에 과도한 압력상승이 일어난다. 이 압력상승을 방지함과 함께 발전소 부하의 증감에 따라서 수량을 공급하거나, 흡수할 목적으로 압력도수로와 수압관과의 접합부에 자유수면이 있는 수조를 설치한다. 이것을 조압수조(surge tank)라 한다(최영박, 1979). 조압수조에서 부하의 급속한 차단에 의해서 수차로 유입될 수량이 차단되면 도수로 내로 흘러 들어온 물은 관성 때문에 수조 내의 수위를 상승시키고, 수조 수위가 어느 정도 이상으로 되어 저수지 수위 보다 상승하면 수조로의 유입이 정지하고 반대로 수조에서 저수지로 역류하여 수조수위는 하강한다. 즉, 조압수조는 도수로 내에 발생한 과도한 압력을 수조 내 수면의 승강운동을 이용하여 감소시키고 원래의 안정적인 수위로 회복시킨다. 본 연구에서는 수격작용에 대한 댐 안정성을 확보하는 수단 중의 하나인 조압수조에 대해 살펴보았다. 연구대상으로 용담댐을 선정하였다. 용담댐에 대한 기존의 검토결과 수직 갱의 지름이 5m 이상이면 조압수조의 동적안정조건을 만족 시키는 것으로 조사되었다. 댐의 설계홍수위인 EL. 265.5m를 기준으로 조압수조의 안정성을 감소시키지 않는 범위 내에서 조압수조 내 격벽 설치 유 무에 따른 수조의 최적 크기를 산정하였다. 산정결과를 분석한 결과 동일 조건에서 격벽을 설치한 경우가 격벽을 설치하지 않은 경우에 비해서 조압수조의 면적이 약 21% 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents the hydraulic analysis of the air entrainment by the weir types. For the weir types, the stepped weir, the labyrinth weir and the gate underflow weir were selected, and the oxygen transfer efficiency was estimated by the site investigation and the hydraulic model tests. The most effective type for the oxygen transfer was stepped weir The more steps the stepped weir had, the higher efficiency it revealed. Oxygen transfer was proportional to the flow velocity, the Froude number, and the flow discharge in order. Hydraulic model tests showed that a nappe flow occurred at small flow rates. The concurrent condition of a nappe flow and a skimming flow occurred as flow rate increases, nappe flow at the upper part and skimming flow at the lower part. In the region of nappe flow, air inception occurred from the step edges due to flow separation, and air entrainment was made through a free-falling nappe, an air pocket, a nappe impact and a subsequent hydraulic jump. In the region of skimming flow, air entrainment occurred by the variation of water surface over the steps, but it was relatively small compared with nappe flow.

In this study, the flow characteristics of the sea region, where tidal current and shock waves are combined, are identified using a three-dimensional numerical model (Princeton Ocean Model, POM). The model is adopted and applied for simulating the flows of the sea region near the open sections during the seadike closure work of Sihwa Seadike which was closed in 1994. The simulation results show that the shock waves with high velocities propagate through the sections toward the inside and outside of the seadike during the periods of the spring and ebb tides, respectively. It is found that the phenomena of flow separation occur near the shock waves; as the shock waves extend to wider zones after passing the sections, their effects on the tidal current become weak. In addition, the longitudinal velocity profiles of the flows are revealed to be affected by the shock waves. For all the simulations, at the ebb tide, the drawdown of the water levels occurs in front of the open section, respectively, especially, hydraulic jump occurs when simulating the case of maximum difference in water level between the inside and outside of the seadike. As a result, it is thought that the flow characteristics of the sea region dominated by shock waves need to be identified employing three-dimensional analysis approach, which is expected to provide the information for ocean engineering works and facility management.
