This test consists of a sloping topography with a depression as illustrated in Figure (a). The modeled domain is a perfect 700m x 100m rectangle. A varying water level, see Figure (b), is applied as a boundary condition along the entire length of the left-hand side of the rectangle, causing the water to rise to level 10.35m. This elevation is maintained for long enough for the water to fill the depression and become horizontal over the entire domain. It is then lowered back to its initial state, causing the water level in the pond to become horizontal at the same elevation as the sill, 10.25m.

This page contains the test case 1 of the UK benchmark named Test 1 – Uncovering of a beach as well as its result generated by the Water Module in the Tygron Platform.

This test consists of a sloping topography with a depression. An inflow boundary condition is applied at the low end, causing the water to rise to the level indicated by a thick blue line. The inflow is then replaced by a sink term until the water level becomes as indicated by the thin blue line. A similar test has been used by EDF (2000) for validation of the TELEMAC package. The aim of the test is to assess basic package capabilities such as handling disconnected water bodies and wetting and drying of floodplains.

Description

Fig. a: Sloping topography with depression
Fig. b: Top down situation
Fig. c: Water level rise at the left boundary

This test consists of a sloping topography with a depression as illustrated in Figure (a). The modeled domain is a perfect 700m x 100m rectangle. A varying water level, see Figure (b), is applied as a boundary condition along the entire length of the left-hand side of the rectangle, causing the water to rise to level 10.35m. This elevation is maintained for long enough for the water to fill the depression and become horizontal over the entire domain. It is then lowered back to its initial state, causing the water level in the pond to become horizontal at the same elevation as the sill, 10.25m.


Technical setup

The provided ascii height file named test1DEM.asc is first imported. It has a cell size of 2m, while the test is expected to run on a 10m grid. Therefore, it will be automatically rescaled by the grid rasterizer. The resulting rescaled asc file is packed in the down below.
