Three-dimensional numerical study of a local scour downstream of a submerged sluice gate using two hydro-morphodynamic models, SedFoam and FLOW-3D by Ghzayel, Alaa, Beaudoin, Anthony

“…Two different hydro-morphodynamic models, SedFoam and FLOW-3D, were used and calibrated according to the experimental data. SedFoam is a multiphase flow model based on the open-source tool-box OpenFOAM and uses a coupling method between the fluid and particles phases in the RANS equations through the dense granular rheology, while FLOW-3D is an CFD software that uses a sediment scour model to perform sediment transport through bedload and suspended load transport equations without direct coupling with the fluid phase. …”
