Three-Dimensional Rans Modeling of Flow Around Circular Piers using Nested Grids

Abstract: ABSTRACT:The paper introduces a three-dimensional numerical model that solves the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations on a curvilinear grid system using a novel nested grid approach. The main benefit of the model is the possibility to model locally complex hydraulic features in large rivers like the flow field at hydraulic structures. The entire study domain in such a case can be discretized with a coarser resolution, whereas a much finer resolution can be applied to a defined zone of the obstruct… Show more

“…This has earlier been done by Olsen and Kjellesvig (1999), who computed flow in a desilting basin of the Svartisen Hydropower plant in Norway. Recently a number of numerical studies have been conducted where CFD is used to predict the flow fields for different hydraulic cases, as documented by Baghalian, Bonakdari, Nazari, and Fazil (2012), Haun, Olsen, andFeurich (2011), Chau andJiang (2004), Andersson, Andreasson, and Lundström (2013), Erduran, Seckin, Kocaman, and Atabay (2012), Chau and Jiang (2001), and Baranya, Olsen, Stoesser, and Sturm (2012).…”

“…While much has been written on this subject, comparatively few studies have been presented involving detailed three-dimensional numerical modelling of such processes. Important contributions to the numerical investigation of both flow and scour around vertical piles include [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

“…Figure 4 shows that all values of y-plus on the blades are less than 2. This result indicates that the mesh density in near-wall regions is acceptable (Barony, Olsen, Stoesser, & Sturm, 2012).…”
