Abstract

The paper describes an on-going project on modeling of sediment transport in outfalls with special focus on the self-cleansing problem occurring due to the daily flow variations seen in outfalls. The two central elements of the project is the development of the numerical model and a matching physical model in the laboratory. The numerical model covers both sediment transport over bed
accumulations as well as transport over clean bottom. The physical modeling emphasizes on measurement of the non-steady removal and transport of welldefined and limited accumulations along the pipe. The paper contains results from both the physical and the numerical modeling. Preliminary conclusions will be
given.
