Nonlinear Differential Equations of Flow Motion Considering Resistance Forces
Abstract
For a stationary potential 2D planar open high-velocity water flow of the ideal liquid, we propose a closed system of nonlinear equations considering the resistance forces to the flow from the channel bottom. Tangential stresses on jet interfaces are ignored. The resistance force components are expressed in terms of velocity components. In this case, the flow equations can be solved through the method of characteristics, and the surface forces are reduced to equivalent volumetric forces. The system of non-linear equations is solved in the velocity hodograph plane; further, the transition to the physical plane takes place. Since the value of the hydrodynamic pressure decreases downstream of the flow, the friction forces to the flow in the first approximation can be considered by using the integral laws of resistance. At that, the form of the equations of motion in the plane of the velocity hodograph does not change. This fact is proved in the article. An example of calculating the water flow is provided. The kinecity, ordinates, and velocities of the flow along its extreme line are calculated without considering resistance forces. Validation of the model in the real flow is performed. Acceptable accuracy relative to experimental data is obtained.
