Impact of Vegetation Density on the Wake Structure

Resumen

Research of interactions between in-channel vegetation and flow structure is important for the restoration of aquatic ecosystems. This study aims to investigate the impact of the vegetation patch density on the wake structure. We used uniform fiberglass circular cylinders to simulate the non-submerged rigid plant community. In addition, a wide range of vegetation patch densities was considered and a 3D acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) was used to measure local flow velocities. High-density vegetation patches correlated with a high maximum turbulent kinetic energy and a double-peak phenomenon for the lateral distribution. In conclusion, differences between Reynolds shear stresses near the bed surface upstream and downstream of vegetation patches correlate with the vegetation density.
