Simulation of the turbidity maximum in the Seine estuary with a two-phase flow model

Résumé

This article presents numerical simulations for the turbidity maximum (TM) in the Seine estuary using a 2-D vertical width-integrated two-phase flow model. The results are in rather good agreement with observations in a natural environment. The displacement of the TM is reproduced and a concentrated particles layer is observed on the numerical results. These results highlight the interest of this innovative approach for sediment transport simulations in estuary: no erosion or deposition laws are imposed
