1. 1. Shallow Water : A comparison between hydraulic measurements and numerical models

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Dan Nilsson; [2023]
   Keywords : CFD; Surface Roughness; Manning coefficient; Hydropower;

   Abstract : In the near future hydropower will be used to regulate intermittent energy sources, shallow water ways can then occur in close proximity to the power plants, where the bottom often consists of stones in a similar length scale as the water depth. The idea of this project, which has been initiated by Vattenfall R\&D, is to compare experimental measurements in a laboratory environment with numerical simulations with CFD, this to find a way to represent roughness structures where there is low relative submergence.

   Abstract : While Indonesia faces countless environmental challenges due to the deforestation and exploitation of nature, the terraced rice landscapes of Bali – known as subak – appear to be not only more protected, but also better preserved than the rest of the country’s greenspaces. It is therefore imperative to ponder upon the question of why this discrepancy may be and, in this case, investigate how subak visitors have been using these areas for outdoor recreational activities and thus contribute to greater environmental awareness.
