Abstract:
This data set has been collected in annular flume experiments with bimodal sand mixtures at the University of Waikato, New Zealand. Medium sand (D50,c = 400 µm) was mixed with 40 % fine material of different diameters (D50,f = 53; 111; 193 µm) and subjected to increasing flow velocities (U = 1.3-22.2 cm/s). The near-bed hydrodynamics, the bed level and the suspended sediment concentration were investigated. In the affiliated publication (DOI: 10.1002/esp.4559) selected results are compared with results from similar tests with glass beads.
This data set comprises:
1) grain-size distributions of the sand mixtures ("GrainSizeDistr_N") and glass beads ("GrainSizeDistr_GB")
2) averaged flow velocity profiles in m/s ("N_RD_number_Uxy_interval" and "GB_RD_Uxy_interval")
3) detailed timeseries of the bed level in m below the ADV profiler ("N_RD_number_Bottom")
4) suspended sediment concentrations in mg/l ("N_RD_number_SSC")
"RD" is a measure for the grain-size distribution of the mixture (see publication). The experiments with natural sand (N) were repeated three times, the "number" of the experiment is indicated in the file names. For experiment N_77 only the data of the 3rd replication is provided. Every experiment comprised 12 "intervals" with increasing flow velocities. For each interval the averaged flow velocity profile is provided.
