Do the Volume-of-Fluid and the Two-Phase Euler Compete for Modeling a Spillway Aerator?
Spillway design is key to the effective and safe operation of dams. Typically, the flow is characterized by high velocity, high levels of turbulence, and aeration. In the last two decades, advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) made available several numerical tools to aid hydraulic structur...
