Hydraulic Model and Numerical Simulation Study of Shuangwangcheng Pump Station

Abstract:

Physical and numerical model studies were performed in order to study the flow conditions for the proposed pump station of Shuangwangcheng reservoir, Shouguang Ctiy. The flow velocity and the pressure distribution in the bidirectional culvert of Shuangwangcheng Pump Station had been obtained by hydraulic model test and numerical simulation. The physical model was constructed to a Froude scale of 1:20. A general conclusion was that, the computed results were good agreement with the data measured in physical model, and could be good complement for physical model test. Furthermore, negative pressure existing in discharge steep culvert in the initial scheme design was eliminated by moving the culvert controlling gate to the end of culvert in the modified scheme, and the flow conditions was improved.
