Abstract

This paper presents numerical simulations of flow around a circular patch of vegetation using a depth-averaged two-dimensional numerical model which is capable of simulating flow structure in vegetated open channel. In order to account for vegetation effect, drag force terms are included in governing equations. Numerical simulations are conducted with various solid volume fractions (SVF). Flow passes through a circular patch and low velocity region, which is called wake region, is formed downstream of the patch. When SVF is larger than 0.08, a recirculation is observed. The location of the recirculation is moved further downstream as SVF decreases. Von-$K{\acute{a}}rm{\acute{a}}n$ vortex street is developed beyond the wake region due to interaction between two shear layers induced by a circular patch of vegetation. The vortex is developed as SVF is larger than 0.08, and the location of the vortex is consistent with the maximum of turbulence kinetic energy. The location of the peak of turbulence kinetic energy is moved further downstream as SVF decreases.

본 연구는 식재된 개수로에서 흐름특성을 모의할 수 있는 수심 적분된 2차원 수치모형을 이용하여 원형 식생역 주변의 흐름을 수치모의하였다. 식생영향을 고려하기 위해 식생항력 항을 지배방정식에 추가하였고 다양한 식생체적비율(SVF) 조건에 따른 수치모의를 수행하였다. 흐름이 원형 식생역을 통과하고 하류에 저유속 구간인 후류영역(wake region)을 형성하며 식생체적비율이 0.08 이상이면 재순환 영역이 발생하였다. 재순환 발생위치는 식생체적비율이 감소하면 식생역에서 더욱 하류로 이동하였다. 후류영역을 지나 원형 식생역 양 측면에서 유발된 전단층들의 상호작용에 의해 von $K{\acute{a}}rm{\acute{a}}n$ 와열이 발생하였다. 원형 식생역 하류에서 발생하는 와류는 식생체적비율이 0.08 이상이 되면 나타나기 시작하였고 발생위치는 난류운동에너지가 최대값을 보이는 위치와 일치하였다. 최대 난류운동에너지는 식생체적비율이 감소하면 줄어드는 것으로 나타났고 최대값의 발생위치는 점점 하류로 이동하였다.
