This grid was reached by increasing the resolution until the results no longer changed. The most critical reach is in the region of the contraction near the dam breach. The basic element length in the channel is m and there are five elements across the channel width. For the smooth channel case Bell Elliot and Chaudhry 1992 used a 1-D calculation to estimate the Manning s n to be but experience at the Waterways Experiment Station suggests that this value should actually be which seems more reasonable. The test results for stations 4 6 and 8 are shown in Figures 24-26. Here the time-history of the water elevation is shown for the inside and outside of the channel for both the numerical model at t of and and the flume. The inside wall is designated by squares and the outside by diamonds. Of particular importance is the arrival time of the shock front. At station 4 the numerical prediction of arrival time using cq of is about sec which appears to be about sec sooner than for the flume. This is roughly 1-2 percent fast. For Oị of the time of arrival is sec which is about sec late 3 percent . At station 6 both flume and numerical model arrival times for at of were about sec and for station 8 the numerical model is sec and the flume is to sec. With otj. set at the time of arrival is late by about and sec at stations 6 and 8 respectively. The flume at stations 6 and 8 has a earlier arrival time for the outer wave compared to the inner wave. The numerical model does not show this. In comparing the water elevations between the flume and the numerical model it is apparent that the flume results show a more rapid rise. The numerical model is smeared somewhat in time .
