Impact of peak discharge increase
on the channel pattern and
dynamics of the Yellow River
Filip Schuurman

The Yellow River
(Huang He)
6th Longest river in the
World (5500 km)
Large social, economic and
geographical value
Dynamic river

Research question:
How does the higher discharge affect
the channel pattern and morphodynamics
in the Yellow River?
8
26 mei 2016
Methods
System analysis:
Field data
Satellite photography
Computer simulations:
Hydrodynamics + sediment transport + morphology
Calibration + validation: 1999 - 2014
Prediction future: 2015 - 2040
9
26 mei 2016
Settings
Curvilinear, structured grid
2D depth-averaged
Grid resolution sufficient to capture bars
Annual hydrograph based on expected discharge
regulation scheme
Sediment inflow equal to local transport capacity
Fine sediment (0.11 mm)
Engelund-Hansen

However…
First results give static channels with only
morphodynamics in first years
Dry-wet bank erosion mechanism is
insufficient
Similar to earlier studies
(e.g. Schuurman et al., 2013)

Bank erosion in Delft3D
Dry-wet bank erosion mechanism at maximum
Boost of bank erosion by:
Strong spiral flow (Espir = 2)
Strong transverse bed slope effect (alpha = 0.2)

Summary
25
Higher (peak) discharge had large effect on the
river pattern:
Higher braiding intensity
Transformation from meandering to braiding
Severe sedimentation on the floodplains
Without mitigation measures, the transfer of
water from the Yangtze River to the Yellow River
is expected to have large economic and social
impacts
Modelling of channel dynamics required a ‘trick’
for bank erosion, which worked well

Impact of discharge on the channel pattern and dynamics of the Yellow River

  • 1. Impact of peak discharge increase on the channel pattern and dynamics of the Yellow River Filip Schuurman 2 November 2016
  • 2. 26 mei 2016 The Yellow River (Huang He) 6th Longest river in the World (5500 km) Large social, economic and geographical value Dynamic river 2
  • 3. 26 mei 2016 Water stress in the Yellow River basin 3
  • 4. 26 mei 20164 Water stress in the Yellow River basin
  • 5. 26 mei 2016 Hydropower dams and basins 5
  • 6. 26 mei 20166 Impact of a.o. hydropower dams
  • 7. 26 mei 2016 South-North Water Transfer project Sedimentation in the hydropower reservoirs Water shortage, despite water storage in hydropower reservoirs Water transfer from wet Yangzte River basin to dry Yellow River basin 7
  • 8. 26 mei 2016 Research question: How does the higher discharge affect the channel pattern and morphodynamics in the Yellow River? 8
  • 9. 26 mei 2016 Methods System analysis: Field data Satellite photography Computer simulations: Hydrodynamics + sediment transport + morphology Calibration + validation: 1999 - 2014 Prediction future: 2015 - 2040 9
  • 10. 26 mei 2016 Settings Curvilinear, structured grid 2D depth-averaged Grid resolution sufficient to capture bars Annual hydrograph based on expected discharge regulation scheme Sediment inflow equal to local transport capacity Fine sediment (0.11 mm) Engelund-Hansen Variable morphological factor 10
  • 12. 26 mei 2016 Study reaches Two study reaches of about 50 km: Braiding Meandering 12 Braiding reach Meandering reach
  • 14. 26 mei 2016 However… First results give static channels with only morphodynamics in first years Dry-wet bank erosion mechanism is insufficient Similar to earlier studies (e.g. Schuurman et al., 2013) 14
  • 15. 26 mei 2016 Bank erosion in Delft3D Dry-wet bank erosion mechanism at maximum Boost of bank erosion by: Strong spiral flow (Espir = 2) Strong transverse bed slope effect (alpha = 0.2) 15
  • 16. 26 mei 2016 Result: Braiding reach: 2000 m³/s
  • 17. 26 mei 2016 Result: Braiding reach: 4000 m³/s
  • 19. 26 mei 201619 Result: Meandering reach: 2000 m³/s
  • 20. 26 mei 2016 Result: Bend cutoffs in meandering reach 20
  • 21. 26 mei 2016 Result: Meandering reach 21
  • 22. 26 mei 2016 Result: Effect on sedimentation and erosion 22
  • 23. 26 mei 2016 Sensitivity: Bed slope parameter 23
  • 24. 26 mei 2016 Sensitivity: Spiral flow parameterization 24
  • 25. 26 mei 2016 Summary 25 Higher (peak) discharge had large effect on the river pattern: Higher braiding intensity Transformation from meandering to braiding Severe sedimentation on the floodplains Without mitigation measures, the transfer of water from the Yangtze River to the Yellow River is expected to have large economic and social impacts Modelling of channel dynamics required a ‘trick’ for bank erosion, which worked well
