Abstract

This study presents numerical simulations of mean flow and turbulence structure of an open channel with submerged vegetation. Filtered Navier-Stokes equations are solved using large-eddy simulation (LES). The immersed boundary method (IBM) is employed based on a Cartesian grid. The numerical result is compared with experimental data of Liu et al. (2008) and shows that simulated results coincided reasonably with experimental data within the average error of 10%. Strong vortices are generated at the interface between vegetated and non-vegetated regions with spanwise extent. The generation of turbulence induced by shear at the interface is interfered with wake turbulence, resulting turbulence intensity maximum. Turbulence produced by shear affects the flow in vegetated region and the penetration depth increases with an increase in the submergence ratio. This result can be used to understand sediment transport mechanisms in the vegetated region.

본 논문에서는 침수조건의 식생이 식재된 개수로의 흐름 및 난류특성을 수치모의하였다. 이를 위해 여과된 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 수치해석 하였고 난류 모형으로 LES 모형을 이용하였다. 식생을 계산격자로 직접 고려하였고 이를 위해 직교격자 기반에 가상경계기법을 적용하였다. 수치모형을 이용하여 계산한 평균흐름을 Liu et al. (2008)의 수리실험데이터와 비교하였고 평균오차 10%내에서 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 식생영역과 비식생영역 사이에서 강한 와가 생성되는 것을 확인하였고 이는 횡방향에 걸쳐 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 경계면에서 전단에 의해 유발된 난류는 후류에 의해 발생한 난류성분과 상호작용하여 최대값을 보였다. 전단에 의한 난류는 식생영역 흐름에 영향을 미쳤고 침투깊이는 식생 침수비가 커질수록 증가하였다. 이러한 난류흐름 특성은 식생영역에서 유사거동 메커니즘을 파악하는데 중요한 자료로 활용될 수 있다.
