Numerical modeling of cavitation-induced abrasion in ogee spillways

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The aim of this work is to evaluate the impacts of flow rate on cavitation and abrasion in ogee spillways using numerical simulations. This study evaluated the amount of concrete abrasion that happens downstream of an ogee spillway using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) through ANSYS Fluent software. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3D ANSYS Fluent platforms in simulating flow over an ogee spillway utilizing various water discharges that range from 100 to 717 m3/s. To the base roughness height (𝑘𝑠=2.5 mm): the model was run for roughness height . . .
