短模型上的明渠非恒定流试验

水工整体模型试验中,明渠非恒定流至今大多被简化为恒定流,而效果有时并不理想。本文指出,只要设置固定式曲线尾门,并有必要的动态量测设备,便可模拟原型非恒定流;即使模型偏短,也能得出比恒定流试验更接近原型的成果。在同一模型上,既做恒定流试验,又进行必要的非恒定流试验,二者相辅相成,必将有助于试验水平的提高。作为例证,本文介绍了泄洪调度导致航道水面波动的一项试验成果,并以岩基冲刷、通航水流条件、围堰过水、河床冲淤等研究课题为例,讨论了采用“短模型非恒定流试验方式”的必要性与可行性。

open channel unsteady flow experiment on a Short models

Unsteady flow in open channels is often simplified as steady flow in model studies. The results, however, are sometimes unsatisfactory. This paper demonstrates that unsteady flow may be simulated in a model directly, if a curved tailgate and some necessary measuring instruments are properly equipped. In spite of being relatively short by length in this instance, the model thus yields much more satisfactory results.
