The Effect of Strip Bed Roughness on the Reaeration Rate Coefficient

Abstract: Measurements are presented for the rate of atmospheric reaeration in open-channel flow under different conditions of depth and bed roughness. A 2k factorial design was employed for the estimation of both depth and bed resistance factor effects upon stream reaeration. Consistent results indicated that stream reaeration is primarily controlled by water shear, but that different modes of instability generated by a combination of depth and strip roughness levels might prevail for different boundary roughness condi… Show more

“…Research about methane emissions from Amazonian Rivers came to similar conclusions [ Sawakuchi et al ., ], indicating the potential roles of sediment types on the carbon gases production in the river systems. On the other hand, sampling sites with fine‐grained sediments may experience lower surface turbulence due to the slight friction of the water passing over the stream bottom [ Bicudo and Giorgetti , ; Raymond and Cole , ], which is conducive to accumulation of dissolved CO 2 in the water body. The gas transfer velocities in sites with sand and silt sediments were significantly lower than those with boulder, cobble, and pebble (Figure S4), indicating that the slow gas evasion may account for the high p CO 2 in the fine‐grained sediments.…”

“…Numerosos experimentos (TSENG et al, 1974;NAKAGAWA, 1975;SMOOT, 1988;BICUDO & GIORGETTI, 1991;HICKS & MASON, 1991;JIRKA, 1991;MOOG, 1995;MOOG & JIRKA, 1995, 1999 Apenas para exemplificar um estudo de caso, apresenta-se uma breve descrição do trabalho realizado por Moog & Jirka (1999). Após a colisão, há perdas de energia localizadas e distorções no perfil de velocidades, afetando a maioria ou a totalidade da profundidade do escoamento -uma característica essencial de escoamentos com macro-rugosidades.…”
