Abstract
In the transition process of tailrace system of large hydropower station, there may be the phenomenon of free-surfacepressurized flow. In order to obtain the accurate operating state of constant flow in the free-surface-pressurized flow section, four calculation methods including Runge Kutta method, one-dimensional numerical simulation software, physical model test and three-dimensional flow field analysis software CFD are used to obtain the water surface profile under constant flow conditions. The results show that the calculation results of each method are relatively consistent, indicating that the research method and route are correct and reasonable. The established mathematical model is reasonable and can be used to study the hydrodynamics of free-surface-pressurized flow. Considering the difference between the outlet of tailrace tunnel and one-dimensional simulation method obtained from physical model test and three-dimensional flow field analysis, the water surface lines of the free-surface-pressurized flow section of tailrace tunnel under constant flow conditions obtained by various analysis methods are basically coincident. The analysis of the local flow field at the outlet of the tailrace tunnel shows that it is feasible to use the three-dimensional flow field simulation instead of the physical model test to simulate the more complex working conditions. The research results can provide reference for the design and research of similar water conveyance systems.
