  • Abstract
    The capabilities of Reynolds stress models to predict the hydrodynamic response of open channel turbulent flows to fixed bed roughness heterogeneity are analyzed. An algebraic model is used, issued from the Reynolds stress transport model of Gibson and Launder(1978), adapted by Gibson and Rodi (1989) to simulate the effects of the wall and the free surface on the turbulence anisotropy. This model is first tested in parallel free surface flows with smooth or rough bottom. Then, it is applied to non-parallel closed or open channel flows with different configurations of the wall roughness for which experimental results are available.
