Channel Routing with Flow Losses

Publication: Journal of Hydraulic Engineering
Volume 122, Issue 10

Abstract

A technique is developed and implemented within the NWS FLDWAV model to account for the effect of flow-volume losses in one-dimensional (1D) open-channel unsteady flow modeling. A functional form for the loss-induced lateral outflow is derived based on a specified total-volume distribution along the reach in which the loss occurs. The flow-loss–enhanced FLDWAV model is capable of modeling unsteady flow with any specified amount of flow loss between any two cross sections along the routing reach.
