| Abstract: | In this study, we present an asymptotical mathematical model and an analytical solution for a supercritical flow in curved rectangular open channels. An original approach is proposed for solving the free-surface configuration and features of the flow in the presence of cross shock waves. The two-dimensional steady depth-averaged shallow water equations are transformed into an equivalent one-dimensional (1D) unsteady flow problem and a first order approximation is then obtained using small perturbation theory. Furthermore, the 1D asymptotic model is solved analytically by Laplace integral transformation and the two-dimensional flow field solution is reconstructed according to the translating planes. The free-surface profile along the outer chute wall and downstream channel was compared with the available experimental data, and the results indicated the satisfactory agreement of the maximum flow depth, peak positions, and wavelength. The proposed approach provides accurate predictions of the flow features and it facilitates the safe design of curved channel transitions. |
