Self-similar solutions of shallow water equations with porosity
Simulated free surface transients in periodic urban layouts have been reported to be self-similar in the space-time domain when averaged on the scale of the building period. Such self-similarity is incompatible with the head loss model formulae used in most porosity-based shallow water models. Verifying it experimentally is thus of salient importance. New dam-break flow laboratory experiments are reported, where two different configurations of idealized periodic buildings layouts are explored. A space-time analysis of the experimental water level fields validates the self-similar character of the flow. Simulating the experiment using the two-dimensional shallow water model also yields self-similar period-averaged flow solutions. Then, the Single Porosity (SP), Integral Porosity (IP) and Dual Integral Porosity (DIP) models are applied. Although all three models behave in a similar fashion when the storage and connectivity porosities are close to each other, the DIP model is the one that upscales best the refined 2D solution.
