Description

The netCDF files "data_expe_mb1.nc" and "data_expe_mb2.nc" contains the experimental results of intense sediment transport experiments (sheet flow) carried out in the LEGI tilting flume. Synchronised and colocated concentration and veclocity (wall-normal and streamwise components) measurements have been obtained by using the Acoustic Concentration and Velocity Profiler (ACVP - Hurther et al., 2011). Details about the experimental protocol can be found in Revil-Baudard et al. (2015) and Revil-Baudard et al. (2016). As there is no sediment recirculation in the flume, the same run has been repeated several times to perform ensemble averages. The results of two-phase flow numerical simulations performed using SedFOAM-2.0 are disseminated in two formats (i) the complete openFOAM case directories can be found in the repository "data_num" (ii) NetCDF files containing the concentration, velocity, shear stress and Turbulent Kinetic Energy profiles. The repository contains different combination of intergranular stress and turbulence models: the mu(I) rheology or the kinetic theory of granular flows and mixing length or k-epsilon turbulence models. All the details concerning the numerical results and the configurations can be found in Chauchat et al. (2017a) The SedFOAM-2.0 source code is distributed under a GNU General Public License v2.0 (GNU GPL v2.0) and is available at https://github.com/SedFoam/sedfoam/releases/tag/v2.0 or on Zenodo at https://zenodo.org/record/836643#.Wc47Yoo690s with the following DOI https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.836643 (Chauchat et al.,2017b).
