Abstract

Turbulence structure and suspended sediment transport capacity in vegetated open-channel flows are investigated numerically in the present paper. The $\textsc{k}-\;\varepsilon$ model is employed for the turbulence closure. Mean velocity and turbulence characteristics including turbulence intensity, Reynolds stress, and production and dissipation of turbulence kinetic energy are evaluated and compared with measurement data available in the literature. The numerical results show that mean velocity is diminished due to the drag provided by vegetation, which results in the reduction of turbulence intensity and Reynolds stress. For submerged vegetation, the shear at the top of vegetation dominates turbulence production, and the turbulence production within vegetation is characterized by wakes. For emergent condition, it is observed that the turbulence generation is dominated by wakes within vegetation. In general, simulated profiles compares favorably to measured data. Computed values of eddy viscosity are used to solve the conservation equation for suspended sediment, yielding sediment concentration more uniform over the depth compared with the one in the plain channel. The simulation reveals that the suspended load decreases as the vegetation density increases and the suspended load increases as the particle diameter decreases for the same vegetation density.

본 연구에서는 식생된 개수로에서의 난류 구조와 부유사 이동을 수치모의하였다. 난류폐합식으로는 $\textsc{k}-\;\varepsilon$ 난류모형을 사용하였다. 수치모의를 통해 평균유속, 난류강도, 레이놀즈 응력, 난류에너지 생성 및 소멸의 분포를 계산하였으며, 기존의 실험결과와 비교하였다. 식생에 의한 항력으로 인하여 평균유속이 전반적으로 감소되었으며, 이에 따라 난류강도와 레이놀즈 응력의 분포 역시 약화되었다. 침수식생의 경우, 식생높이보다 높은 구간에서는 전단에 의한 난류에너지 생성이 지배적이며, 식생높이 보다 낮은 구간에서는 후류에 의한 난류에너지 생성이 지배적임을 확인하였다. 또한 정수식생의 경우, 전채 수심에 걸쳐 후류에 의한 난류에너지 생성이 지배적으로 발생하였다. 대체적으로 수치모의에 의한 결과가 실험값과 유사한 양상을 보이는 것이 확인되었다. 수치모형으로부터 계산된 난류동점성계수 분포를 이용하여 부유사 보존방정식을 수치해석하였다. 식생된 개수로에서의 부유사 농도는 일반 개수로에 비해 전 수심에 걸쳐 균일하게 분포하였다. 또한 식생밀도가 증가할수록 부유사량은 감소하며, 동일한 식생밀도에 대해서는 입자의 크기가 작을수록 부유사량이 증가함을 확인하였다.
