1 Floodplain Hydraulics! Hydrology and Floodplain Analysis Dr. Philip Bedient
2 Open Channel Flow 1. Uniform flow - Manning s Eqn in a prismatic channel - Q, V, y, A, P, B, S and roughness are all constant 2. Critical flow - Specific Energy Eqn (Froude No.) 3. Non-uniform flow - gradually varied flow (steady flow) - determination of floodplains 4. Unsteady and Non-uniform flow - flood waves
3 Uniform Open Channel Flow Chezy and Manning s Eqn. 1. Must use results from Fluid Mechanics 2. Derivation of these eqns requires a force balance (x) F = ρq[ V V ]= 0 x Actual forces (F = hydrostatic) are summed across C.V. [ F 1 F 2 ] τ w Pl + W sinθ = 0
4 Chezy and Manning s Eqn. 1. Since hydrostatic forces are equal, and sinθ = S 0 τ w = W sinθ = WS 0 Pl Pl W = γ Al Slopes are very mild 2. Define R = A/P, the hydraulic radius Now τ w = Kρ V 2 2 forturbulent flows
5 Chezy and Manning s Eqn. Finally, we can equate the two eqns for shear stress γ RS 0 = V 2 Kρ 2,solving forv = C RS 0 C = Chezy Coefficient (1768) in Paris Manning was an Irish Eng and 1889 developed his EQN.
6 Uniform Open Channel Flow Manning s Eqn for velocity or peak flow rate v = 1 n R 2 /3 S S.I. units v = 1.49 R 2 /3 S English units n where!!!n = Manning s roughness coefficient!!r = hydraulic radius = A/P!!S = channel slope!! Q = V A = flow rate (cfs)
7 Uniform Open Channel Flow Brays B. Brays Bayou" Concrete Channel"
8 Normal depth is function of flow rate, and geometry and slope. One usually solves for normal depth or width given flow rate and slope information B b
9 Normal depth implies that flow rate, velocity, depth, bottom slope, area, top width, and roughness remain constant within a prismatic channel as shown below UNIFORM FLOW Q = C V = C y = C S 0 = C A = C B = C n = C
10 Optimal Channels - Max R and Min P
11 Uniform Flow Energy slope = Bed slope or dh/dx = dz/dx Water surface slope = Bed slope = dy/dz = dz/dx Velocity and depth remain constant with x H
12
13 Critical depth is used to characterize channel flows -- based on addressing specific energy E = y + v 2 /2g :!!E = y + Q 2 /2gA 2 where Q/A = q/y and q = Q/b!!!!!Take de/dy = (1 q 2 /gy 3 ) and set = 0. q = const! E = y + q 2 /2gy 2! y Min E Condition, q = C E
14 !!!Solving de/dy = (1 q 2 /gy 3 ) and set = 0.! For a rectangular channel bottom width b,! 1.!E min = 3/2Y c for critical depth y = y c! 2. y c /2 = V c2 /2g! 3. y c = (Q 2 /gb 2 ) 1/3 Froude No. = v/(gy) 1/2 We use the Froude No. to characterize critical flows
15 Y vs E E = y + q 2 /2gy 2! q = const!
16 ! Critical Flow in Open Channels In general for any channel shape, B = top width!! (Q 2 /g) = (A 3 /B)!at y = y c!!! Finally Fr = v/(gy) 1/2 = Froude No.!! Fr = 1 for critical flow! Fr < 1 for subcritical flow! Fr > 1 for supercritical flow
17
18 Non-Uniform Open Channel Flow With natural or man-made channels, the shape, size, and slope may vary along the stream length, x. In addition, velocity and flow rate may also vary with x. Non-uniform flow can be best approximated using a numerical method called the Standard Step Method.
19 Non-Uniform Computations Typically start at downstream end with known water level - y o. Proceed upstream with calculations using new water levels as they are computed. The limits of calculation range between normal and critical depths. In the case of mild slopes, calculations start downstream. In the case of steep slopes, calculations start upstream. Calc. Q Mild Slope
20 Non-Uniform Open Channel Flow Let s evaluate H, total energy, as a function of x. H = z + y + ( α v 2 / 2g) Take derivative, dh dx = dz dx + dy dx + α 2 g dv 2 dx Where!H = total energy head!!!z = elevation head,! αv 2 /2g = velocity head
21 Replace terms for various values of S and S o. Let v = q/y = flow/unit width - solve for dy/dx, the slope of the water surface S = S + dy o dx 1 q 2 gy 3 since v = q / y 1 2g d [ dx v 2 ]= 1 2g d dx q 2 y 2 = q2 g 1 y 3 dy dx
22 Given the Froude number, we can simplify and solve for dy/dx as a fcn of measurable parameters Fr 2 = v 2 / gy ( ) dy dx = S S o 1 v 2 / gy = S o S 1 Fr 2 *Note that the eqn blows up when Fr = 1 and goes to zero if S o = S, the case of uniform OCF. where S = total energy slope S o = bed slope, dy/dx = water surface slope
23
24 Y n > Y c Uniform Depth Mild Slopes where - Y n > Y c
25 Now apply Energy Eqn. for a reach of length L y + v g L = = y + v g 2 y + v g 2 y 2 + v 2 2g S S 0 + ( S S )L o This Eqn is the basis for the Standard Step Method Solve for L = Δx to compute water surface profiles as function of y 1 and y 2, v 1 and v 2, and S and S 0 2

34 HEC RAS (River Analysis System, 1995)" HEC RAS or (HEC-2)is a computer model designed for natural cross sections in natural rivers. It solves the governing equations for the standard step method, generally in a downstream to upstream direction. It can Also handle the presence of bridges, culverts, and variable roughness, flow rate, depth, and velocity.
