FLOW-3D HYDRO's sediment transport model assumes multiple non-cohesive sediment species with different properties including grain size, mass density, critical shear stress, angle of repose and parameters for entrainment and transport. For example, medium sand, coarse sand and fine gravel can be categorized into three different species in a simulation. The model is applicable for both 3D and shallow water flows. It estimates the motion of sediment by predicting the erosion, advection and deposition of sediment. It can be useful for bridge scour, culvert outlet erosion, settling in stormwater detention ponds, and water treatment applications to name a few.
