Hydrodynamic Implications of Levee Breach Width Variation on Turbulence Structures and Discharge Efficiency
This study investigates the effects of levee breach width on flow and turbulence structures, as well as on the discharge coefficient, under river-type flow conditions using the open-source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software OpenFOAM. A three-dimensional (3D) Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) model cou...
