A comprehensive guide to open channel hydraulics, thoroughly updated for the latest tools and methods
This revised resource provides in-depth coverage of various common problems faced by practicing hydraulic engineers, incorporating the latest research and computing advancements. Drawing from a course taught by the author for nearly 40 years, Open Channel Hydraulics, Third Edition offers clear explanations of floodplain mapping, flood routing, bridge hydraulics, culvert design, stormwater system design, stream restoration, and much more.
Special emphasis is placed on applying fundamental fluid mechanics principles to formulate open channel flow problems.
The coverage encompasses:
Basic principles: Understanding the fundamental concepts and equations governing open channel flow.
Specific energy: Analyzing the energy loss in open channels and its impact on flow behavior.
Momentum: Investigating the transfer of momentum in open channels and its influence on flow patterns.
Uniform flow: Analyzing the flow of fluids in channels with uniform cross-sections.
Gradually varied flow: Studying the flow of fluids in channels with gradually varying cross-sections.
Hydraulic structures: Discussing the design and analysis of hydraulic structures such as dams, weirs, and culverts.
Governing unsteady flow equations and numerical solutions: Exploring the equations used to model unsteady open channel flows and the numerical methods employed for their solution.
Simplified methods of flow routing: Introducing simplified approaches to flow routing, particularly for small and medium-sized channels.
Flow in alluvial channels: Exploring the flow of fluids in alluvial channels, including the formation of channels and the influence of sediment transport.
Three-dimensional CFD modeling for open channel flows: Discussing the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model open channel flows in three dimensions.
By providing a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of open channel hydraulics, this resource serves as a valuable tool for engineers, researchers, and students in the field.
