Numerical Analysis on Hydraulic Characteristics of U-shaped Channel of Various Trapezoidal Cross-Sections

Curved channel with trapezoidal cross-section is approximate to the common form in nature fluvial networks and its hydraulic characteristics are considerably complex and variable. Combined with volume of fluid (VOF) method, renormalization group (RNG) k-ε turbulence model was employed to nu...
