In this paper, a new flow resistance equation for rill flow was deduced applying dimensional analysis and self‐similarity theory. At first, the incomplete self‐similarity hypothesis was used for establishing the flow velocity distribution whose integration gives the theoretical expression of the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor. Then the deduced theoretical resistance equation was tested by some measurements of flow velocity, water depth, cross section area, wetted perimeter, and bed slope carried out in 106 reaches of some rills shaped on an experimental plot. A relationship between the velocity profile, the channel slope, and the flow Froude number was also established. The analysis showed that the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor can be accurately estimated by the proposed theoretical approach based on a power–velocity profile.  相似文献   

Anti-erosive effectiveness of Eucalyptus coppices through the cover management factor estimate

In this paper sediment yield data, measured from 1978 to 1994 in two small Calabrian basins (W2 and W3) reafforested with eucalyptus trees (Eucalyptus occidentalis Engl.), and the Modified Universal Soil Loss Equation (MUSLE) applied in a distributed form are used to evaluate the anti-erosive effects of eucalyptus cover. At first step the sediment yield measurements observed in W2 basin are used to estimate a single cover management factor representative of the eucalyptus coppice and equal to the median value (0·164) of the cover management factor values calculated for each runoff event. Then, the reliability of the selected representative cover management factor is verified on W3 by comparing the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the measured sediment yield with the CDF of the calculated one. Finally, the temporal analysis of the crop and management factor is developed searching, at monthly and annual scale, the correlation between crop anti-erosive effectiveness and rainfall erosivity index. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献
