Computation of Suspended Sediment Discharge in Open Channels by Combining Tsallis Entropy–Based Methods and Empirical Formulas
Sediment discharge is computed by using different combinations of entropy-based and empirical methods of channel cross-section velocity and suspended sediment concentration distribution, and the results of these different methods are compared. The comparison shows that the entropy-based methods are more accurate than the empirical method and that the Tsallis entropy–based method is more accurate than the one based on Shannon entropy. The accuracy of the computation for all methods can generally be improved by introducing a correction factor; however, the fully entropy-based methods still remain the most accurate.
