Numerical Simulation for Water Conveyance of Inverted Siphon

Article Preview

Abstract:

The numerical simulation study for water conveyance of inverted siphon on water security is of great significance. Three-dimensional air-water two-phase flow turbulence model coupled with VOF(volume of fluild) method is proposed to simulate water transfer project of Luolingou inverted siphon in the east route of the South-to-North Water Transfer Projec.Moreover, mesh sensitivity and the distribution of air-water volume fraction is analyzed. The simulation results show that the flow capacity of inverted siphon with the increased flow rate 60m3/s is enough for the requirements, which gain the validation of the engineering structure reliability. The analysis of mesh sensitivity suggests that the fine grid model is identified reasonable and effective.
