Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of computational hydraulics, and particularly relates to a dimension reduction method for river hydrodynamic simulation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Numerical simulation is an important tool for studying river network flow structure, pollutant diffusion, sediment transport and riverbed evolution. 3D CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) can accurately calculate the flow field and describe the characteristics of material transport under complex boundary conditions by modeling and solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations or using advanced methods such as large eddy simulation and detached eddy simulation. However, due to the complexity of 3-D CFD simulation of movable bed processes and the need for large amounts of computing resources, large-scale field riverbed morphology dynamics simulation has been limited in long-term application in engineering practice. Under this background, two-dimensional hydrodynamic and geomorphic dynamic models based on SWEs (Shallow Water Equations) have become standard tools for predicting riverbed evolution due to their computational efficiency. However, due to the depth-averaged method used by the 2D SWEs model, the main limitation of its application in complex river sections such as bends and river junctions is that it cannot explicitly consider three-dimensional effects, such as secondary flows that play an important role in pollutant and sediment transport, and the accuracy is often insufficient.
[0003] For a long time, two-dimensional hydrodynamic and geomorphic dynamic models have been improved by various methods to consider the influence of curvature-induced secondary flow. The most common and simple method is to adjust the bed sediment transport direction according to the local streamline curvature in the horizontal plane. A more advanced method is to add appropriate dispersion terms to the SWEs, which depend on the strength of the spiral flow. The dispersion stress can be calculated by the local streamline curvature, or by solving the transport equation of the angular momentum of the spiral flow. This method has clear physical meaning and does not require much additional computational effort, and is suitable for complex bends in natural river channels. However, these methods can only simulate curvature-driven secondary flows, and cannot consider additional secondary flows caused by density gradients (such as uneven distribution of temperature or suspended sediment concentration).
[0004] In addition, although existing models can depict the phase lag in the development and decay of secondary flow in river bends and reduce sensitivity to planar and / or topographic singularities, they have not yet addressed the coupling of density gradients and curvature-induced secondary flow. Although the additional mixing caused by secondary flow can also be represented by adding a dispersion term to the transport-diffusion equation, current depth-averaged models still lack a unified description of the interaction between density gradients and bend circulation, which is particularly important in suspended sediment transport and density current simulation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a dimension reduction simulation method that can comprehensively consider the secondary flow driven by streamline curvature and density gradient. SUMMARY
[0005] The technical problem solved by the present application is to provide a dimension reduction method for river hydrodynamic simulation, which uses a two-dimensional finite element model to solve coupled shallow water equations and convection-diffusion equations, and by adding a suitable dispersion term in the control equation, the interaction between the density gradient and the bend circulation can be fully considered, the three-dimensional flow structure effect can be realized in the two-dimensional hydrodynamic model, and the simulation accuracy is improved while the calculation efficiency is ensured.

[0019] The steps involve constructing a two-dimensional planar hydrodynamic model based on shallow water equations, adding a dispersed stress term to the shallow water equations to obtain a modified shallow water equation, and adding the influence of curvature-induced secondary flow into the shallow water equations through the dispersed stress term.
[0020] Using a local reference frame, where s represents the longitudinal direction (mainstream direction) and n represents the transverse direction; and assuming a simple vertical distribution of velocity in the s and n directions, and further assuming that the velocity component in the mainstream direction follows a power-law distribution, a closed-form expression for the dispersed stress term is obtained through coordinate transformation:

[0046] Based on the assumption that the water depth changes slowly, the angular momentum equation considering the density gradient is changed to:
[0047] .
[0048] Further, in order to consider the net sediment flux in the transverse direction caused by the combined action of the non-uniform distribution of vertical concentration of suspended sediment and the flow helical flow, the original convection-diffusion equation is enhanced by adding a suitable dispersion stress term; the convection-diffusion equation describes the evolution of the vertical average concentration of tracers and substances in time and space, and the original convection-diffusion equation is expressed as:

[0095] S4, to consider the net sediment flux in the transverse direction caused by the combined action of the non-uniform distribution of the vertical concentration of suspended sediment and the flow helical flow, a suitable dispersion stress term is added to the original convection-diffusion equation to enhance the explanation;
[0096] S5, based on the modified shallow water equation, the angular momentum equation considering the influence of the density gradient, and the convection-diffusion equation considering the dispersion stress, a two-dimensional hydrodynamic-matter transport finite element model is constructed;

Based on the calculation domain, input the flow and water temperature data of the upstream branch into the water flow velocity and density parameters in the control equation, and input the downstream ADCP measured water level data into the water depth, coordinate and other control equation parameters together with the initially set terrain boundary condition. Through the model dimension reduction algorithm calculation, finally output the flow velocity field of the calculation domain, so as to obtain the dimension reduction simulation result fused with the measured data, realize the dimension reduction of three-dimensional hydrodynamic structure to two-dimensional efficient calculation.
[0098] In step S2, the expression of the modified shallow water equation is:
[0099]
[0100]
[0101]
[0102] wherein, represents the material derivative, represents the x-axis component of the velocity along the water depth integration, represents the equivalent water depth, i.e. the water volume per unit area, represents the x-direction Reynolds turbulent stress on the horizontal plane, represents the horizontal coordinate axis parallel to the main flow direction of the river channel (usually positive in the downstream direction), represents the shear component of the Reynolds turbulent stress on the horizontal plane, represents the horizontal coordinate axis perpendicular to the main flow direction of the river channel, represents the x-axis direction flow velocity fluctuation kinetic energy of vertical integration, which has the physical meaning of x-direction additional normal stress caused by uneven vertical flow velocity distribution, represents the vertical coordinate axis along the water depth direction (z=0 for the riverbed and z=Y for the water surface), represents the difference between the real value and the water depth average value of the x-axis direction velocity component, represents the vertical distribution of the x-direction instantaneous flow velocity, represents the x-direction water depth average velocity; both represent the x-y direction flow velocity fluctuation correlation term of vertical integration, which has the physical meaning of reflecting the momentum exchange caused by vertical shear, and represents the difference between the real value and the water depth average value of the y-axis direction velocity component, This represents the distribution of instantaneous flow velocity along the vertical direction in the y-direction. This represents the average velocity across the water in the y-direction. The x-axis component represents the shear stress on the bed surface. This indicates the density of water.

This represents the kinetic energy of the pulsating velocity along the y-axis, which is the result of the vertical integral. ; The y-axis component represents the shear stress on the bed surface. Representing the wetted area fraction, it is a storage coefficient related to water depth. , Indicates time.
[0103] The dispersed stress term reflects the subscale spatial variation of the unanalyzed velocity field. To derive the closed-form expression for the dispersed stress term, a local reference frame is typically used, where s represents the longitudinal direction (i.e., the mainstream direction) and n represents the transverse direction. It is also assumed that the flow velocity has a simple vertical distribution in the s and n directions, and that the velocity components in the mainstream direction follow a power-law distribution; these assumptions help simplify the derivation of the dispersed stress. Finally, through coordinate transformation, we obtain:
[0104] ,
[0105] ,
[0106] ,
[0107] in, This indicates the magnitude of the average flow velocity at water depth. ; It does not depend on secondary flow; it acts along the mainstream direction, influencing flow by suppressing spatial acceleration and deceleration. It is the most important term in simulating secondary flow. Its spatial gradient may cause additional drag on the inside of the curve and acceleration on the outside of the curve, thus explaining the additional momentum transfer effect caused by helical flow. This may generate net transverse stress, the magnitude of which depends on the transverse velocity gradient and the transverse gradient of the secondary flow intensity. The specific calculation formulas for the three components of the dispersed stress, represented in the local coordinate system, are as follows:
[0108] ,
[0109] ,
[0110] ,
[0111] where, represents the friction parameter; represents the radius of curvature of the streamline averaged over the water depth, R is positive when the flow is bending in the clockwise direction and negative otherwise; represents the dimensionless transverse velocity at the free surface, reflecting the strength of the secondary flow. It can be calculated by the vorticity transport method, the specific steps are as follows:
[0112] First, the general form of the streamwise vorticity transport equation on the horizontal plane can be written as:
[0113] ,
[0114] where, represents the streamwise component of vorticity; represents the production term, which depends on the imbalance of the centrifugal acceleration and the transverse pressure gradient; represents the dissipation term;

[0117] where, represents the angular velocity, represents the transverse velocity at the free surface;
[0118] The streamwise vorticity transport equation on the horizontal plane can be directly rewritten as:
[0119] ,
[0120] where, represents the coefficient of the production term; represents the von Karman constant, ; represents the coefficient of the dissipation term;
[0121] The dimensionless transverse velocity at the free surface can be expressed as:
[0122] .
[0123] In step S3, the expression of the angular momentum equation considering the density gradient is:
[0124] ,
[0125] where, all represent empirical coefficients, denotes the friction parameter, denotes the lateral coordinate pointing to the inner side of the bend;
[0126] Based on the assumption that the water depth varies slowly, the angular momentum equation considering the density gradient is modified as:
[0127] .
[0128] In step S4, the advection-diffusion equation describes the evolution of the vertical-averaged concentration of the tracer and the material moving with the flow in time and space. The original advection-diffusion equation is expressed as:
[0129] ,
[0130] where, denotes the concentration; denotes the two-dimensional divergence operator; denotes the convection term of the material flux; denotes the two-dimensional gradient of the concentration; denotes the turbulent diffusivity, , denotes the turbulent eddy viscosity, denotes the Schmidt number, which is generally taken as 1; denotes the anisotropic diffusivity tensor, which is used to explain the longitudinal and lateral dispersion; denotes the source term.
[0131] The advection-diffusion equation is generally based on the assumption that the passive scalar concentration is constant in the vertical direction. However, this assumption is often not true. When simulating the transport of suspended sediment, the highest concentration often approaches the riverbed bottom. This non-uniform vertical concentration distribution, combined with the flow direction helical flow, produces a net sediment flux in the lateral direction, which can be explained by a suitable dispersion term in the equation. Given the vertical distribution of the spanwise velocity and the concentration distribution, the dispersion stress is calculated by integrating the difference between the water depth-dependent flux and its water depth average. The advection-diffusion equation describing the transport of suspended sediment can be rewritten as:
[0132] ,
[0133] where, denotes the vertical integrated dispersion flux component in the x direction, denotes the vertical integrated dispersion flux component in the y direction, denotes the erosion flux, denotes the deposition flux;
[0134] ,

This represents the flow component of the dispersed stress in the local reference frame. This represents the spanwise component of the dispersed stress in the local reference frame; This indicates the settling velocity of sediment particles.
[0137] Assuming the longitudinal velocity component follows a power-law distribution in the vertical direction and the lateral velocity component follows a linear distribution with a mean of 0 in the vertical direction, and assuming the vertical concentration distribution of suspended matter to be a simplified Rouse distribution, it can be calculated using the following formula:
[0138] ,

[0140] Thus, dispersed stress and It can be represented as:
[0141] ,
[0142] ,
[0143] in, Indicates the average velocity of the flow direction. This represents the average lateral flow velocity. These represent the simplification coefficients in the equation, have no physical meaning, and are expressed mathematically as follows:
[0144] ,
[0145] ;
[0146] S5. Based on the modified shallow water equation, the angular momentum equation considering the influence of density gradient, and coupled with the convection-diffusion equation considering the dispersed stress, a two-dimensional planar hydrodynamic-mass transport finite element model is constructed.
[0147] In step S5, the expression for the two-dimensional planar hydrodynamic-mass transport finite element model is:
[0148] ,
[0149] ,
[0150] ,
[0151]
[0152]

Based on the calculation domain, input the flow and water temperature data of the upstream branch into the water flow velocity and density parameters in the control equation, and input the downstream ADCP measured water level data into the water depth, coordinate and other control equation parameters together with the initially set topographic boundary conditions. Through the model dimension reduction algorithm calculation, finally output the flow velocity field of the calculation domain, so as to obtain the dimension reduction simulation result fused with the measured data, realize the dimension reduction of three-dimensional hydrodynamic structure to two-dimensional efficient calculation.
[0154] Next, taking the fixed bed simulation of a confluence area in A River Basin as an example, through two field monitoring in 2018, the acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) was used to measure the data of multiple river section, the measurement section layout is shown in Figure 2 , the monitoring range covers 7 km of A River section and 4 km of B Lake river section, detailed hydrological and topographic data of A River branch, B Lake branch and confluence area are collected, the basic hydraulic parameters of two working conditions are shown in Table 1.

[0156]
[0157] In order to consider the contribution of bend circulation to momentum equation, the dispersion stress corresponding to the curvature induced secondary flow in two-dimensional shallow water equation is expressed by dimensionless transverse velocity at free surface, and is calculated by vorticity transport method. Further, the contribution of density gradient to angular momentum is introduced into the angular momentum conservation equation, and the interaction between density gradient and bend circulation and its net effect on momentum equation are considered by the relative direction of curvature and density gradient. Then, the convection-diffusion equation of dispersion stress is coupled, and the plane two-dimensional hydrodynamic-mass transport finite element model is established. The specific derivation process of the control equation and formula is described before, which is not repeated here.
[0158] The constructed plane two-dimensional hydrodynamic-mass transport finite element model considering the interaction of density gradient and bend circulation is applied to the fixed bed simulation of a confluence area in A River Basin, and two working conditions are simulated. In the high flow working condition 1, the flow of a branch of A River is much larger than that of a branch of B Lake, and the average flow velocity of the branch of A River is almost 4 times that of the branch of B Lake. In the confluence area, the water flow of the branch of A River and the branch of B Lake deflects to the left and right respectively. Due to the bending of the flow line, the spiral flow is generated in the transverse plane, and it is two counter-rotating secondary flows. From the confluence vertex, the two counter-rotating secondary flows interact with each other. In the simulation considering only the influence of curvature-induced secondary flow, the intensity of the clockwise secondary flow on the side of the branch of A River is much larger than that on the side of the branch of B Lake Figure 3 ), however, the field measurement data show that the counterclockwise secondary flow formed on the side of the branch of B Lake is not inhibited, because under this working condition, the water temperature on the side of the branch of A River is lower than that on the side of the branch of B Lake, a horizontal density gradient is formed at the mixing interface, and a counterclockwise transverse circulation driven by density is generated, which helps to inhibit the clockwise circulation on the side of the branch of A River and enhance the counterclockwise circulation on the side of the branch of B Lake, so that two counter-rotating circulations with similar intensity are formed.

As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 the plane two-dimensional hydrodynamic-mass transport finite element model considering the interaction of density gradient and bend circulation proposed in the present application accurately predicts the formation of the two counter-rotating secondary flows, and has good consistency and high precision with the measured data result.
[0160] In the low flow condition 2, the flow of a branch of A river is about 2 times of the flow of a branch of B lake, the average flow velocity of the branch of A river and the branch of B lake is close, and the water temperature of one side of the branch of B lake is lower than that of one side of the branch of A river. Due to the reverse bending of the flow lines on both sides, two reverse rotating spiral flows are formed at the beginning of the intersection, and the intensity is relatively weak. Figure 5 After the intersection of the flow on both sides, the clockwise rotating secondary flow generated on one side of the branch of A river gradually dominates, and is stronger than the counterclockwise rotating secondary flow of the branch of B lake, mainly because the flow line deflects to the left downstream of the intersection, thereby enhancing the secondary flow of the branch of A river and weakening the reverse rotating secondary flow of the branch of B lake. The existence of the horizontal temperature gradient further enhances the clockwise secondary flow of the branch of A river, which can be clearly seen at the intersection vertex (see Figure 5 ).

It can be seen from Figure 6 that compared with the two-dimensional model considering only the curvature induced secondary flow effect, the planar two-dimensional hydrodynamic-matter transport finite element model considering the density gradient and the bend circulation interaction is more matched with the measured data result.
