open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Hello all,

I'm new with Telemac and I'd like to know if it's possible to modell a sluice gate with it? If yes, then how can I do that?

Thanks in advance!

Sincerely,

Alex Ermilov

Hi

Telemac is a free surface flow model so you cannot precisely represent the flow under a sluice get.
Nevertheless, some trick exists to try to approximate such flow. The main possibility is to locally impose a modified atmospheric pressure at the location of the sluice gate...
This mean to manage a spatial variation of the atmospheric pressure with the meteo.f subroutine

Regards

Thank you very much for your reply!

I was hoping in this case to close out cells at the location of the gate somehow (like in the attached picture below, marked with red). Is that not possible then?
