Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effects of Schmidt number on calculation of sediment suspension. Schmidt number is a constant for turbulent diffusion and turbulence intensity. Two different types of sediment (the cohesive and the non-cohesive) are tested using one dimensional vertical numerical model. Two simulation conditions (oscillatory flow and steady current) are applied to numerical experiments. It is found in this study that Schmidt number has different effects on cohesive and non-cohesive sediments.
