SuspSedDensityStrat

This model is used for calculating the effect of density stratification on the vertical profiles of velocity and suspended sediment.

Model introduction

The model is the calculation of Density Stratification Effects Associated with Suspended Sediment in Open Channels.

This program calculates the effect of sediment self-stratification on the streamwise velocity and suspended sediment concentration profiles in open-channel flow. Two options are given. Either the near-bed reference concentration Cr can be specified by the user, or the user can specify a shear velocity due to skin friction u*s and compute Cr from the Garcia-Parker sediment entrainment relation.

3) Gradient Richardson number

<math> Ri =Ri_{*} {\frac{\kappa \zeta F_{2}}{u_{*r} \left ( 1 - \zeta \right ) }} c </math> (29)

Notes

The program will run through however many iterations it takes (up to 200) for the error on all the cn and un values to be less than 0.001 to account for the stratification effects.

The reference height is set at 0.05H, the number of intervals is set at 50, the constant of Von Korman, κ, is given a value of 0.4.

There is no GetData function for this program, because there is no time loop for which values may need to be retrieved.
