The Bottleneck Problem for Turbulence in Relation to Suspended Sediment in the Surf Zone

Publication: Coastal Engineering 1986

Abstract

In the present paper the vertical distribution of turbulent kinetic energy k under broken waves is calculated by application of a one-equation turbulence model. The contributions to the energy level originate partly from the production in the wave boundary layer, partly from the production in the roller. Further on, the findings for k are used to calculate the vertical distribution of suspended sediment in broken waves.
