Abstract
Simulating basin surface water flow with anisotropic roughness has practical significance. Based on the complete hydrodynamic model, a two-dimensional surface water flow model of basin irrigation with anisotropic roughness was developed in this study by constructing an anisotropic roughness model in the source terms of the governing equation. Then, the simulation performance of the proposed model was analyzed and compared based on typical experiments of basin irrigation. The results show that with basin surface anisotropic roughness, the proposed model can successfully simulate water flow in basin irrigation, and exhibits better simulation performance than the model with isotropic roughness. Three basin geometries and two kinds of inflow geometries were selected for the application of the proposed model. Applied results show that the anisotropic roughness can improve irrigation performance. When the basin width becomes narrow, the physical effect of the rotation angle in the anisotropic roughness model weakens, even becomes smooth. The two-dimensional surface water flow model of basin irrigation with anisotropic roughness provides a good numerical simulation tool for designing and evaluating the performance of basin irrigation system.
