Summary of Test Method4.1 The determination of discharge at a culvert, either aftera flood or for selected approach stages, is usually a reliablepractice. A field survey is made to

20、 determine locations andelevations of high-water marks upstream and downstream fromthe culvert, and to determine an approach cross section, and theculvert geometry. These data are used to compute the eleva-tions of the water surface and selected properties of thesections. This information is used al

21、ong with Mannings n inthe Manning equation for uniform flow and discharge coeffi-cients for the particular culvert to compute the discharge, Q,incubic feet (metres) per second.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is particularly useful to determine thedischarge when it cannot be measured dire

See Practice D3858.5.2 Even under the best of conditions, the personnel avail-able cannot cover all points of interest during a major flood.The engineer or technician cannot always obtain r

23、eliableresults by direct methods if the stage is rising or falling veryrapidly, if flowing ice or debris interferes with depth or velocitymeasurements, or if the cross section of an alluvial channel isscouring or filling significantly.5.3 Under flood conditions, access roads may be blocked,cableways

24、 and bridges may be washed out, and knowledge ofthe flood frequently comes too late. Therefore, some type ofNOTE 1The loss of energy near the entrance is related to the sudden contraction and subsequent expansion of the live stream within the culvert barrel.FIG. 1 Definition Sketch of Culvert FlowD5

25、243 92 (2013)2indirect measurement is necessary. The use of culverts todetermine discharges is a commonly used practice.6. Apparatus6.1 The equipment generally used for a “transit-stadia”survey is recommended. An engineers transit, a self-levelinglevel with azimuth circle, newer equipment using elec

26、troniccircuitry, or other advanced surveying instruments may beused. Necessary equipment includes a level rod, rod level, steeland metallic tapes, survey stakes, and ample note paper.6.2 Additional items of equipment that may expedite asurvey are tag lines (small wires with markers fixed at knownspa

27、cings), vividly colored flagging, axes, shovels, hip boots orwaders, nails, sounding equipment, ladder, and rope.6.3 Acamera should be available to take photographs of theculvert and channel. Photographs should be included with thefield data.6.4 Safety equipment should include life jackets, first ai

28、dkit, drinking water, and pocket knives.7. Sampling7.1 Sampling as defined in Terminology D1129 is notapplicable in this test method.8. Calibration8.1 Check adjustment of surveying instruments, transit, etc.,daily when in continuous use or after some occurrence thatmay have affected the adjustment.8

29、.2 The standard check is the “two-peg” or “double-peg”test. If the error is over 0.03 in 100 ft (0.091 m in 30.48 m),adjust the instrument. The two-peg test and how to adjust theinstrument are described in many surveying textbooks. Refer tomanufacturers manual for the electronic instruments.8.3 The

30、“reciprocal leveling” technique (1)4is consideredthe equivalent of the two-peg test between each of twosuccessive hubs.8.4 Visually check sectional and telescoping level rods atfrequent intervals to be sure sections are not separated. Aproper fit at each joint can be checked by measurements acrossth

31、e joint with a steel tape.8.5 Check all field notes of the transit-stadia survey beforeproceeding with the computations.9. Description of Flow at Culverts9.1 Relations between the head of water on and dischargethrough a culvert have been the subjects of laboratory inves-tigations by the U.S. Geologi

32、cal Survey, the Bureau of PublicRoads, the Federal HighwayAdministration, and many univer-sities. The following description is based on these studies andfield surveys at sites where the discharge was known.9.2 The placement of a roadway fill and culvert in a streamchannel causes an abrupt change in

33、the character of flow. Thischannel transition results in rapidly varied flow in whichacceleration due to constriction, rather than losses due toboundary friction, plays the primary role. The flow in theapproach channel to the culvert is usually tranquil and fairlyuniform. Within the culvert, however

34、, the flow may besubcritical, critical, or supercritical if the culvert is partly filled,or the culvert may flow full under pressure.9.2.1 The physical features associated with culvert flow areillustrated in Fig. 1. They are the approach channel crosssection at a distance equivalent to one opening w

35、idth upstreamfrom the entrance; the culvert entrance; the culvert barrel; theculvert outlet; and the tailwater representing the getawaychannel.9.2.2 The change in the water-surface profile in the ap-proach channel reflects the effect of acceleration due tocontraction of the cross-sectional area. Los

36、s of energy near theentrance is related to the sudden contraction and subsequentexpansion of the live stream within the barrel, and entrancegeometry has an important influence on this loss. Loss ofenergy due to barrel friction is usually minor, except in longrough barrels on mild slopes. The importa

37、nt features thatcontrol the stage-discharge relation at the approach section canbe the occurrence of critical depth in the culvert, the elevationof the tailwater, the entrance or barrel geometry, or a combi-nation of these.9.2.3 Determine the discharge through a culvert by applica-tion of the contin

38、uity equation and the energy equationbetween the approach section and a control section within theculvert barrel. The location of the control section depends onthe state of flow in the culvert barrel. For example: If criticalflow occurs at the culvert entrance, the entrance is the controlsection, an

39、d the headwater elevation is not affected by condi-tions downstream from the culvert entrance.10. General Classification of Flow10.1 Culvert Flow Culvert flow is classified into six typeson the basis of the location of the control section and therelative heights of the headwater and tailwater elevat

40、ions toheight of culvert. The six types of flow are illustrated in Fig. 2,and pertinent characteristics of each type are given in Table 1.10.2 Definition of HeadsThe primary classification offlow depends on the height of water above the upstream invert.This static head is designated as h1 z, where h

41、1is the heightabove the downstream invert and z is the change in elevation ofthe culvert invert. Numerical subscripts are used to indicate thesection where the head was measured. A secondary part of theclassification, described in more detail in Section 18, dependson a comparison of tailwater elevat

42、ion h4to the height of waterat the control relative to the downstream invert. The height ofwater at the control section is designated hc.10.3 General ClassificationsFrom the information in Fig.2, the following general classification of types of flow can bemade:10.3.1 If h4/D is equal to or less than

43、 1.0 and ( h1 z)/D isless than 1.5, only Types 1, 2 and 3 flow are possible.10.3.2 If h4/D and (h1 z)/D are both greater than 1.0, onlyType 4 flow is possible.4The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to a list of references at the end ofthe text.D5243 92 (2013)310.3.3 If h4/D is equal to or less t

44、han 1.0 and ( h1 z)/D isequal to or greater than 1.5, only Types 5 and 6 flow arepossible.10.3.4 If h4/D is equal to or greater than 1.0 on a steepculvert and (hz z)/D is less than 1.0, Types 1 and 3 flows arepossible. Further identification of the type of flow requires atrial-and-error procedure th

45、at takes time and is one of thereasons use of the computer program is recommended.11. Critical Depth11.1 Specific EnergyIn Type 1 flow, critical depth occursat the culvert inlet, and inType 2 flow critical flow occurs at theculvert outlet. Critical depth, dc, is the depth of water at thepoint of min

46、imum specific energy for a given discharge andcross section. The relation between specific energy and depth isillustrated in Fig. 3. The specific energy, Ho, is the height of theenergy grade line above the lowest point in the cross section.Thus:Ho5 d1V22gwhere:Ho= specific energy,d = maximum depth i

48、locity) and depth as shown by the following equations:Q2g5A3Tand:V2g5 dm5ATFIG. 2 Classification of Culvert FlowTABLE 1 Characteristics of Flow TypesNOTE 1D = maximum vertical height of barrel and diameter of circular culverts.Flow Type Barrel FlowLocation ofTerminal SectionKind of Control Culvert S
