SALTATION OF SAND IN VICINITY OF CYLINDRICAL COLUMN
Abstract eng: The paper presents a model of sand sediment transport in water stream in vicinity of a high cylindrical column. It is assumed that an averaged turbulent flow is horizontally layered in vicinity of the cylinder. In each layer the flow around the cylinder is modelled as a potential flow generated by a vertical dipole line. Flow in viscous sub-layer on the surface of the cylinder is neglected. The presented flow model is approximate; however it is simple for use. Trajectories of saltating particles near the cylinder were calculated. Further investigation of such flow will allow a determination of zones where solid particles will collide with the column. That might be useful for prevention of its damage or destruction.
