ABSTRACT

We propose a new mixing length profile, based on an extension of von Kármán similarity hypothesis, as well as the associated mixing velocity profile. This profile was compared with other profiles and was tested on three academic and experimental tests. The validation of the model was made by considering two reference examples. The first example concerns the erosion of a bottom of sand in a uniform flow, and the second concerns the filling of an extraction pit resulting from the tests presented in the European project SANDPIT.

RÉSUMÉ

On propose un nouveau profil de longueur de mélange lm(z), basé sur une extension de l'hypothèse de similitude de von Kármán, ainsi que le profil de vitesse de mélange associé. Ce profil a été comparé à d'autres profils et testé sur trois cas tests académiques et expérimentaux. La validation du modèle a été effectuée en considérant deux exemples de référence. Le premier concerne l'érosion d'un fond de sable érodable par un écoulement uniforme, et le second concerne le remplissage d'une fosse d'extraction, issus des essais présentés dans le projet européen SANDPIT.
