SW2 Validation

Supercritical Flow¶

• Flume with raised bed elevation and initially flat water surface
• Flow will become supercritical over the bump in the bed elevation
• Verify the modeled results match analytical

• Shock wave forms at computed angle to the down stream boundary
• Verify the modeled results match analytical

Floodwave Propagation¶

• Dam break flow over shallow depth
• Compare to analytical results

• Reservoir release into angled flume
• Compare to measured data

• Flume experiment of sloping bed
• Compare to measured data for time of arrival and depth

Forcings¶

• Test water surface slope variation in x and y directions
• Assume uniform flow in each direction
