Distorted Physical Models for Mixing Studies

by Jianlu Xu, UC, Berkeley, United States,
Hsieh Wen Shen, UC, Berkeley, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Hydraulic Engineering

Abstract:

The frictional resistance and mixing process affected by roughness bars are investigated. Specific combinations of the size and layout of the bars for various flow conditions are suggested through analyzing the scaling of friction factor, transverse mixing coefficient and longitudinal dispersion coefficient. The result agrees reasonably well with the San Francisco Bay-Delta Model.
