摘要Without the ‘rigid lid’ assumption, the depth averaged linear k-ε model can describe the change of water depth. However, it is incapable of accurately simulating turbulent flows, where the normal Reynolds stresses play an important role. A depth averaged nonlinear k-ε model is developed taking into account the stress relations described by Speziale. The depth averaged linear and nonlinear k-ε models can both be used to calculate the flow field near a side discharge into open channel flow, but the results of the nonlinear model are in much closer agreement with experimental results. Furthermore, the technique of changing the 2D linear k-ε program into a depth averaged, nonlinear program is presented.
