The Benchmark of the UK Environmental Agency (EA, 2013) is used to assess the functioning of the numerical scheme for several cases. The results are described below.

Benchmark 3

description

Tygron Platform version: 2019.0.0 DEV 68.0
Date executed: 2018-07-11

Characteristics: Test for conservation of momentum over a small obstruction. By inertia (flow changing over time) some water flows over the obstruction.

  • Dimensies: zie Figuur below
  • Roughness: uniform manning = 0,01 m/s1/3
  • Initial condition: 0m water depth
  • Resolution: 5m grid
  • Boundary condition: Q(t), see figure below
