Numerical Studies on Flow Through Box Culvert
Culverts are one of the important components of drainage work that allows the water to flow under roadways, railways, and other traffic embankments. A culvert should be designed in such a way that it can effectively drain water during excess rainfall periods. Understanding the flow characteristics through a culvert is crucial for designing, analyzing, and maintaining these structures. The purpose of present study is to evaluate the performance of Box Culvert for outlet control flow conditions. Flow Profiles for submerged as well as unsubmerged inlet corresponding to free flow outlet are analytically examined for different headwater conditions described in the available literature. The hydraulic analysis of flow through Box Culvert is performed using FLOW-3D® software which numerically simulates the flow of water. Flow Profiles obtained from numerical modeling resembled with the standard Flow Profile. Discharge values calculated analytically for different headwater conditions have been compared with those obtained using numerical modeling. The results in terms of critical depth and headwater obtained from the numerical modeling are found to be in good agreement with those obtained analytically.
