Title Sediment Feed Recirculating Flumes: A Fundamental Difference
Creator Parker, G. Wilcock, Peter
Description Two standard modes of laboratory sediment transport flume operation are sediment‐feed and recirculating. In the case of uniform sediment, the final equilibriums achieved in the two modes are equivalent and independent of initial conditions, even though the specified flow and sediment constraints differ. When the sediment consists of a mixture of sizes, however, this symmetry breaks down. In a sediment‐feed flume, both the feed rate and size distribution are specified by the user, and must be...
