- Description:
- The main focus of this paper is to find a suitable distribution for the hydrology series of six catchments in Pakistan. Among others Gumbel and Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distributions were implemented for frequency analysis using Probability weighted moments (PWM) and maximum likelihood (ML) methods for estimating the parameters. Based on goodness of fit tests it was found that GEV distribution fits closely and PWM method is best suited for estimating the parameters. Peaks over threshold (POT) series model was also tried which resulted in favor of GEV distribution. The quantile estimates based on aforementioned distributions also revealed that GEV distribution has been found close to the observed values of annual maximum peak (AMP) flows. Power comparison studies using various goodness of fit tests for Gumbel and GEV distributions using Log-normal and Weibull as alternative distributions at different levels of significance and for different sample sizes n = 10, 30, 50 showed that Anderson Darling (AD) test is more powerful test followed by Modified Anderson Darling (MAD), Cramer Von Mises (CVM) and Kolmogorov Smirnov (KS) test. and Príspevok je zameraný na odvodenie vhodného rozdelenia pravdepodobností hydrologických radov šiestich povodí v Pakistane. Spomedzi iných sa použili rozdelenia Gumbela a jeho štandardnej extrémnej hodnoty (GEV), s odvodením parametrov metódou momentov vážených pravdepodobnosťou (PWM) a metódou maximálnej pravdepodobnosti (ML) pre analýzu početností. Na základe testov zhody sa zistilo, že na odhad parametrov je najvhodnejšia metóda PWM, a že najlepšia zhoda je pre GEV rozdelenie. Model s výberom maxím nad určitou hranicou (POT) sa tiež použil, s najlepšou zhodou tiež pre rozdelenie GEV. Odhady kvantilov uskutočnené podľa vyššie uvedených rozdelení tiež potvrdili, že tieto pre rozdelenie GEV sú blízke pozorovaným hodnotám ročných maxím (AMP). Porovnanie mocnín (PC) sa tiež uskutočnili pri použití rôznych testov zhody. Pre rozdelenia podľa Gumbela a GEV, alternatívne tiež rozdelenia podľa Weibulla a Logaritmicko-normálne, sa pre súbory s veľkosťou n = 10, 30, 50 členov ako najúčinnejšie ukázali nasledujúce testy na rôznych hladinách významnosti: podľa Andersona Darlinga (AD) ako najúčinnejšieho, nasledoval modifikovaný Anderson Darling (MAD), podľa Cramera von Missesa (CVM) a Kolmogorova-Smirnova (KS).

- Format:
- bez média and svazek
- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- CFD, slurry flow, particle size, solid concentration, and pipeline
- Language:
- Slovak
- Description:
- The paper presents three-dimensional CFD analysis of two-phase (sand-water) slurry flows through 263 mm diameter pipe in horizontal orientation for mixture velocity range of 3.5-4.7 m/s and efflux concentration range of 9.95- 34% with three particle sizes viz. 0.165 mm, 0.29 mm and 0.55 mm with density 2650 kg/m3 . RNG k-ε turbulence closure equations with Eulerian multi-phase model is used to simulate various slurry flows. The simulated values of local solid concentration are compared with the experimental data and are found to be in good agreement for all particle sizes. Effects of particle size on various slurry flow parameters such as pressure drop, solid phase velocity distribution, friction factor, granular pressure, turbulent viscosity, turbulent kinetic energy and its dissipation have been analyzed.

- Format:

- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- water flow, water uptake by plants, farmers’ activities, two-dimensional mathematical model, prúdenie vôd, odber vody rastlinami, farmárske činnosti, and dvojrozmerný matematický model
- Language:
- Slovak
- Description:
- In the paper the results of measurements and two dimensional mathematical simulation for polder in the depression for 1996 are presented. The mathematical model takes into account hydraulics conductivity of soils in form of tensors, water uptake by plants and elastic capacity of soils. In the last decade in Poland many hectares of field culture changed not only ownership, but also the manner in which it was farmed. It also refers to polders with compound soil profiles and complex water conditions. Often in such areas, alluvial soils and relatively high water tables occur. These conditions are preferred in grassland as opposed to arable land farming. Very often these rules are forgotten by new farmers or they stop farming or they use their land for other activities due to bad crop yield; turning it to - for example - grasses and weeds from mowed ditches and dikes store. This causes conflicts between farmers and the holder of the melioration system or the water reservoir in the vicinity. An example of such a situation is a small polder where soil water conditions are influenced by the reservoir with retained water levels between about 0 - 1.5 m above the surface of the surrounding land. It is concluded that if the beginning of the vegetation season (April) is wet, the moisture conditions are unfavourable for crop production. But if April is dry, then even if the rest of the season is wet, the moisture conditions will still be satisfactory. This conclusion was derived from presented results of simulation. It is true only if farmers’ activities are responsible and rational for such soil and water conditions. and Štúdia prezentuje výsledky pozorovaní a dvojrozmernej matematickej simulácie poldra v depresii za rok 1966. Matematický model uvažuje s hydraulickou vodivosťou pôd v tenzorovom tvare, odberom vody rastlinami a pružnou kapacitou pôd. V poslednom desaťročí sa v Poľsku zmenili nielen vlastnícke pomery na veľkej ploche poľnohospodárskych kultúr, ale aj spôsob, akým boli obrábané. Týka sa to aj poldrov so zložitými pôdnymi profilmi a vodným režimom. Často ide o plochy s aluviálnymi pôdami a pomerne vysokou hladinou vody. Takéto podmienky sú vhodnejšie pre trávnaté porasty ako pre hospodárenie na oráčinách. Noví hospodári často zabúdajú na tieto zásady, často prestávajú hospodáriť na týchto pôdach alebo ich využívajú na iný účel z dôvodu nízkych úrod. Tieto sa tak často zmenia na skládky napr. trávy a burín z vykášaných priekop a hrádzí. Toto spôsobuje konflikty medzi farmármi a správcami melioračných sústav alebo nádrží v ich blízkosti. Príkladom takéhoto stavu je malý polder, kde vodné pomery pôd ovplyvňuje vodná nádrž s pohybom hladín okolo 0–1,5 m nad povrchom okolitých pôd. Záverom sa konštatuje, že ak počiatok vegetačnej sezóny (apríl) je vlhký, celkové vlhkostné podmienky sú pre úrodu nepriaznivé. Ak je však naopak apríl suchý, potom aj ak je zvyšok vegetačnej sezóny vlhký, celkove vlhkostné podmienky budú dostatočné. Tento záver vyplynul z uvedených výsledkov simulácie. Bude to tak však iba v prípade zodpovedných a rozumných činností farmára, dotýkajúcich sa pôdnych a vlhkostných podmienok.

- Subject:
- saturation excess runoff, infiltration excess (Hortonian) runoff, soil erosion, Ethiopian highlands, and PED model
- Language:
- Slovak
- Description:
- Drainage of paved and unpaved roads has been implicated as a major contributor of overland flow and erosion in mountainous landscapes. Despite this, few watershed models include or have tested for the effect roads have on discharge and sediment loads. Though having a model is an important step, its proper application and attention to distinct landscape features is even more important. This study focuses on developing a module for drainage from a road and tests it on a nested watershed (Shanko Bahir) within a larger previously studied site (Debre Mawi) that receives overland flow contributions from a highly compacted layer of soil on an unpaved road surface. Shanko Bahir experiences a sub-humid monsoonal climate and was assessed for the rainy seasons of 2010, 2011, and 2012. The model chosen is the Parameter Efficient Distributed (PED) model, previously used where saturation-excess overland flow heavily influences discharge and sediment concentration variation, though infiltration-excess occasionally occurs. Since overland flow on unpaved surfaces emulates Hortonian flow, an adjustment to the PED model (the developed module) advances possible incorporation of both flow regimes. The modification resulted in similar modeling performance as previous studies in the Blue Nile Basin on a daily basis (NSE = 0.67 for discharge and 0.71 for sediment concentrations). Furthermore, the road while occupying a small proportion of the sub-watershed (11%) contributed importantly to the early discharge and sediment transport events demonstrating the effect of roads especially on sediment concentrations. Considerations for the dynamic erodibility of the road improved sediment concentration simulation further (NSE = 0.75). The results show that this PED modeling framework can be adjusted to include unpaved compacted surfaces to give reasonable results, but more work is needed to account for contributions from gullies, which can cause high influxes of sediment.

- Description:
- The objective of this study is to make a conceptual and numerical model of the groundwater flow system which will improve the understanding of the groundwater cycle in the area of the Čenkov Valley, Slovakia. Extreme deficits of atmospheric precipitation and thereof resulting periods of low water flows and discharges could very negative impact the water management. Increasing water consumption in the future will be the most critical in strong and intensive dry periods. Almost every climatic zone could suffer from drought, although its features could considerably vary from region to region. The study is handling with creating, calibration and verification of numerical model of groundwater flow in the reparian alluvial aquifer of the Čenkov Valley in south-east part of the Danubian lowland for minimal anthropogenic disrupted natural conditions in the past and quasi-steady deficit water regime of the area. The conceptual model is based on data from earlier studies in the area complemented with data collected in the field. Results of model solutions are presented in the study - groundwater level, filtration velocity vectors, groundwater paths by particle tracking and water budget of study area. Created numerical model could be used for simulation of underground dam function, which belongs to the types of artificial recharge of reparian alluvial aquifer management, and also for creating prognostic scenarios concerning expected climatic changes. Additional future work may include adding a solute transport model to the flow model. and Cieľom predloženej štúdie je vytvorenie koncepčného a numerického modelu systému prúdenia podzemnej vody na území Čenkovskej nivy na Slovensku. Extrémne deficity atmosférických zrážok a z toho vyplývajúce obdobia nízkych vodných stavov a prietokov môžu vplývať na vodné hospodárstvo veľmi negatívne. Zvýšená spotreba vody bude v budúcnosti najkritickejšia práve počas drasticky suchých periód. Takmer každá klimatická zóna môže trpieť suchom, hoci jeho charakteristiky sa môžu od regiónu po región značne líšiť. Štúdia sa zaoberá tvorbou, kalibráciou a verifikáciou numerického modelu prúdenia podzemnej vody v pririečnom hydrogeologickom kolektore Čenkovskej nivy v juhovýchodnej časti Podunajskej roviny, za minimálne antropogénne narušených prírodných podmienok v minulosti a kvázi ustáleného deficitného vodného režimu územia. Koncepčný model je založený na údajoch z predošlých štúdií doplnených o údaje zhromaždené v teréne. V štúdii sú prezentované výsledky modelového riešenia - poloha hladiny podzemnej vody, vektory filtračnej rýchlosti, smery prúdenia podzemnej vody prostredníctvom trasovania pohybu častíc a vodná bilancia územia. Vytvorený numerický model môže byť využitý na simuláciu funkcie podzemnej priehrady, ktorá patrí medzi typy umelého nasycovania pririečneho aluviálneho kolektora a tiež pri tvorbe prognostických scenárov, zaoberajúcich sa klimatickými zmenami. Doplnková budúca štúdia sa môže venovať pripojeniu transportného modelu chemických látok k prezentovanému tokovému modelu.
