This paper presents a model for the hydraulic simulation of a drainage network using the storage concept. This model is easier to use than the complete Barre de Saint Venant equations and gives better results than the usual conceptual models, i.e. the Muskingum model, or than models obtained by the simplification of the Saint Venant equations (kinematic wave model and diffusion wave model).

This paper describes the application of the characteristic-dissipative-Galerkin method to steady and unsteady open channel flow problems. The robust performance of this new finite element scheme is demonstrated in modeling the propagation of ice jam release surges over a 500 km reach of the Hay River in Alberta and Northwest Territories. This demonstration includes the automatic determination of steady flow profiles through supercritical–subcritical transitions, establishing the initial conditions for the unsteady flow analyses. The ice jam releases create a dambreak type of problem which begins as a very dynamic situation then develops into an essentially kinematic wave problem as the disturbance propagated downstream. The characteristic-dissipative-Galerkin scheme provided stable solutions not only for the extremes of dynamic and kinematic wave conditions, but also through the transition between the two. Key words: open channel flow, finite element method, dam break, surge propagation.
