Sediment Transport
� Sediment is any particulate matter that can be
transported by fluid flow and which eventually is
deposited as a layer of solid particles on the bed
or bottom of a body of water or other liquid.
� The generic categories of sediments is as
follows
� Gravel
� Sand
� Silt
� Clay

1. Properties of Water and Sediment
� 1.1 Introduction� The science of sediment transport deals with the interrelationship
between flowing water and sediment particles and thereforeunderstanding of the physical properties of water and sediment isessential to our study of sediment transport.
� 1.2 Terminology� Density: Mass per unit volume
� Specific weight: Weight per unit volume
� γ=ρg (1.1)
� Specific gravity: It is the ratio of specific weight of given material tothe specific weight of water at 4oC or 32.2oF. The average specificgravity of sediment is 2.65
� Nominal Diameter: It is the diameter of sphere having the samevolume as the particle.
� Sieve Diameter: It is the diameter of the sphere equal to length ofside of a square sieve opening through which the particle can justpass. As an approximation, the sieve diameter is equal to nominaldiameter.

1.4 Properties of a Single Sediment Particle
� Size: Size is the mostbasic and readilymeasurable property ofsediment. Size has beenfound to sufficientlydescribe the physicalproperty of a sedimentparticle for many practicalpurposes. The size ofparticle can bedetermined by sieve sizeanalysis or Visual-accumulation tubeanalysis. The USStandard sieve series isshown in table.

1.4 Properties of a Single Sediment Particle ……(Cont.)� The sediment grade scale suggested by Lane et al.
(1947), as shown in Table below has generallybeen adopted as a description of particle size

� Density: The density of sediment particle refers to its
mineral composition, usually, specific gravity.
Waterborne sediment particles are primarily composed
of quartz with a specific gravity of 2.65.
� Fall Velocity: The fall velocity of sediment particle in
quiescent column of water is directly related to relative
flow conditions between sediment particle and water
during conditions of sediment entrainment, transportation
and deposition.
� It reflect the integrated result of size, shape, surface
roughness, specific gravity, and viscosity of fluid.
� Fall velocity of particle can be calculated from a balance of buoyantweight and the resisting force resulting from fluid drag.

� Theoretical Consideration of Drag Coefficient: For a very slowand steady moving sphere in an infinite liquid at a very smallReynolds Number, the drag coefficient can be expressed as
FD=6 µ π r ω (1.8)
Eq.(1.8) obtained by Stoke in solving the general Navier-Stoke Equation, with
the aid of shear function and neglecting inertia term completely. The CD is
thus
CD=24/Re (1.9)
Equation is acceptable for Reynolds Number Re < 1
From Eq. (1.6) and (1.9), Stoke’s (1851) equation can be obtained. i.e
FD=3 π d v ω (1.10)
Now from eqs (1.7) and (1.10), the terminal fall velocity of sediment particle is

� Experimental Determination of Drag Coeffienct and Fall Velocity.
� The drag coefficient cannot be found analytically when Reynolds Number is greater than 2.0. Therefore it has to be determined experimentally by observing the fall velocities in still water. These relationships are summarized by Rouse (1937), as shown in figure below
After the CD has been determined, ω can be computed by solving eqs (1.6) and (1.7)

1.5 Bulk Properties of Sediment � Particle Size Distribution:
� While the properties and behavior of individual sedimentparticles are of fundamental concern, the greatest interest is ingroups of sediment particles. Various sediment particles movingat any time may have different sizes, shapes, specific gravitiesand fall velocities. The characteristic properties of the sedimentare determined by taking a number of samples and making astatistical analysis of the samples to determine the mean,distributed and standard deviation.
� The two methods are commonly used
� 1. Size-Frequency Distribution Curve
� The size of sample is divided into class intervals , and thepercentage of the sample occurring in any interval is can beplotted as a function of size.
� 2. Percentage finer than Curve
� The frequency histogram is customarily plotted as a cumulativedistribution diagram where the percentage occurring in eachclass is accumulated as size increases.

1.5 Bulk Properties of Sediment
� Specific Weight: The specific weight of deposited
sediment depends upon the extent of consolidation of
the sediment. It increases with time after initial
deposition. It also depends upon composition of
sediment mixture.
� Porosity: It is important in the determination of the
volume of sediment deposition. It is also important in the
conversion from sediment volume to sediment weight
and vice versa. Eq. (1.18) can be used for computation
of sediment discharge by volume including that due to
voids, once the porosity and sediment discharge by
weight is known.

2.0 Incipient Motion
� 2.1 Introduction:� Incipient motion is important in the study of sediment
transport, channel degradation, and stable channeldesign.
� Due to stochastic (random) nature of sedimentmovement along an alluvial bed, it is difficult to defineprecisely at what flow conditions a sediment particle willbegin to move. Consequently, it depends more or lesson an investigator’s definition of incipient motion. “initialmotion”, “several grains moving”, “weak movement”, and“critical movement” are some of the terms used bydifferent investigators.
� In spite of these differences in definition, significantprogress has been made on the study of incipientmotion, both theoretically and experimentally.
![Page 26: Sediment Transport lec 9-11 - RIDhydrology.rid.go.th/.../sedimenttransportppt.pdf · 2020. 6. 20. · Sediment Transport Sediment is any particulate matter that can be transported](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071410/6105797235ed5a675728a096/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
2.2 General Consideration:
� The forces acting on
spherical particle at the
bottom of an open
channel are shown in
figure.
� The forces to be considered are the Drag force FD, Lift force FL,Submerged weight Ws, and Resistance force FR. A sedimentparticle is in state of incipient motion when one of the followingcondition is satisfied.
� FL=Ws (2.1)
� FD=FR (2.2)
� Mo=MR (2.3)
Where: Mo is overturning moment due to FD & FR.
MR is resisting moment due to FL & Ws

2.3 Incipient Motion Criteria
� Most incipient motion criteria are derived from
either a
� Shear stress or
� Velocity approach
Because of stochastic nature of bed load
movement,
� Probabilistic approaches have also been used.
� Other Criterion
![Page 28: Sediment Transport lec 9-11 - RIDhydrology.rid.go.th/.../sedimenttransportppt.pdf · 2020. 6. 20. · Sediment Transport Sediment is any particulate matter that can be transported](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071410/6105797235ed5a675728a096/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
SHEAR STRESS APPROACH
� White’s AnalysisWhite (1940) assumed that the slope and life force have insignificant influence on incipient motion, and hence can be neglected compared to other factors. According to White a particle will start to move when shear stress is such that Mo=MR.

� Thus the critical shear stress is proportional to sediment diameter.
� The factor C5 is a function of density and shape of the particle, the fluid
properties, and the arrangement of the sediment particles on the bed surface.

system is used.

SHEAR STRESS APPROACH� Shield’s Diagram
Shield (1936) applied dimensional analysis to determinesome dimensionless parameters and established his wellknow diagram for incipient motion. The factors that areimportant in the determination of incipient motion are theshear stress, difference in density between sediment andfluid, diameter, kinematic viscosity, and gravitationacceleration.

a flow depth of at least 3ft or 1m. If the relationship is applied to a flow of

PROBABILISTIC CONSIDERATION� The incipient motion of a single sediment particle along an
alluvial bed is probabilistic in nature.
� It depends on
� The location of a given particle with respect to particles of
different sizes
� Position on a bed form, such as ripples and dunes.
� Instantaneous strength of turbulence
� The orientation of sediment particle.
� Gessler (1965, 1970) measured the probability that the grains
of specific size will stay. It was shown that the probability of a
given grain to stay on bed depends mainly upon Shields
parameter and slightly on the grain Reynolds Number. The
ratio between critical shear stress, determined from Shields
diagram and the bottom shear stress is directly related to the
probability that a sediment particle will stay. The relationship
is shown in figure.

3. Resistance to Flow and Bed Forms
� 3.1 Introduction: In the study of open channel
hydraulics with rigid boundaries, the roughness coefficient can
be treated as a constant. After the roughness coefficient has
been determined, a roughness formula can be applied directly
for the computation of velocity, slope or depth.
� In fluvial hydraulics, the boundary is movable and theresistance to flow or roughness coefficient is variable andresistance formula cannot be applied directly without theknowledge of how the resistance coefficient will change underdifferent flow and sediment conditions. Extensive studies hasbeen made by different investigators for the determination ofroughness coefficient of alluvial beds. The resultsinvestigators often differ from each other leaving uncertaintiesregarding applicability and accuracy of their results.
� The lack of reliable and consistent method for the predictionof the variation of the roughness coefficient makes the studyof fluvial hydraulics a difficult and challenging task.

3.3 Bed Forms� There is strong interrelationship between resistance to
flow, bed configuration, and rate of sediment transport.
In order to understand the variation of resistance to flow
under different flow and sediment conditions, it is
necessary to know the definitions and the conditions
under which different bed forms exits.
� Terminology:
� Plane Bed: This is a plane bed surface without
elevations or depressions larger than the largest grains
of bed material
� Ripples: These are small bed forms with wave lengths
less than 30cm and height less than 5cm. Ripple profiles
are approx. triangular with long gentle upstream slopes
and short, steep downstream slopes.
![Page 47: Sediment Transport lec 9-11 - RIDhydrology.rid.go.th/.../sedimenttransportppt.pdf · 2020. 6. 20. · Sediment Transport Sediment is any particulate matter that can be transported](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071410/6105797235ed5a675728a096/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
3.3 Bed Forms� Bars: These are bed forms having lengths of the same
order as the channel width or greater, and heights
comparable to the mean depth of the generating flow.
There are point bars, alternate bars, middle bars and
tributary bars as shown in figure below.

3.3 Bed Forms� Dunes: These are bed forms smaller than bars but
larger than ripples. Their profile is out of phase with
water surface profile.
� Transitions: The transitional bed configuration is
generated by flow conditions intermediate between those
producing dunes and plane bed. In many cases, part of
the bed is covered with dunes while a plane bed covers
the remaining.
� Antidunes: these are also called standing waves. The
bed and water surface profiles are in phase. While the
flow is moving in the downstream direction, the sand
waves and water surface waves are actually moving in
the upstream direction.
� Chutes and Pools: These occur at relatively large
slopes with high velocities and sediment concentrations.

3.3 Bed Forms� Flow Regimes: The flow in sand-bed channel can be
classified as lower and upper flow regimes, with a
transition in between. The bed forms associated with
these flow regimes are as follows;
� Lower flow regime:
� Ripples
� Dunes
� Transition Zone:
� Bed configuration ranges from dunes to plane beds or toantidunes

3.4 Resistance to Flow with Movable Boundary
� The total roughness of alluvial channel consists of twoparts.
� 1. Grain roughness or Skin roughness, that is directlyrelated to grain size
� 2. Form roughness, that is due to existence of bedforms and that changes with change of bed forms.
� If the Manning’s roughness coefficient is used, the totalcoefficient n can be expressed as
n=n’+n”
Where: n’= Manning’s roughness coefficient due to grain roughness
n”= Manning’s roughness coefficient due to form roughness
The Value of n’ is proportional to the sedimentdiameter to the sixth power. However there is noreliable method for computation of n”. Our instabilityto determine or predict variation of form roughnessposes a major problem in the study of alluvialhydraulics.

Bed Load Transport� Introduction: � When the flow conditions satisfy or exceed the criteria
for incipient motion, sediment particles along the alluvial
bed will start move.
� If the motion of sediment is “rolling”, “sliding” or “jumping”
along the bed, it is called bed load transport
� Generally the bed load transport of a river is about 5-
25% of that in suspension. However for coarser material
higher percentage of sediment may be transported as
bed load.
![Page 56: Sediment Transport lec 9-11 - RIDhydrology.rid.go.th/.../sedimenttransportppt.pdf · 2020. 6. 20. · Sediment Transport Sediment is any particulate matter that can be transported](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071410/6105797235ed5a675728a096/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

Numerical Problem� Q. The sediment load was measured from a river, with
average depth D=1.44 ft and average width W=71 ft. Thebed load is fairly uniform, with medium size d50=0.283mm, average velocity V=3.20f t/sec, slope S=0.00144,water temperature T=5.6oC and measured bed loadconcentration is Cm=1610 ppm by weight. Calculate thebed load proposed by Duboys, shields, Schoklitsch,Meyer-Peter, Meyer-Peter and Mullers and Rottners, andcompare the results with measurement
� Solution� Depth of river, D= 1.44 ft
� Width, W= 71 ft
� Sediment size, d50 = 0.283 mm
� Flow velocity, V=3.2 ft/sec
� Slope, S= 0.00144
� Water temp, T=5.6oC
� Measured bed load concentration, Cm =1610 ppm by weight
� Discharge= AV=(71x1.44)x3.2= 327 ft3/sec
� Discharge/width , q=327/71=4.61 ft3/sec/ft
� Measured bed load =qm=(Q/W)Cm(6.24x10-5)=0.46 lb/sec/ft

5.0 Suspended Load
� Introduction:� Suspended sediment refers to sediment that is supported
by the upward component of turbulent currents and stays
in suspension for an appreciable length of time.
� In natural rivers sediments are mainly transported as
suspended load.
Note: Consult reference book for details

6.0 Total Load Transport� 6.1 Introduction:� Based on Mode of Transportation:
� Total load = Bed-load + Suspended load
� Based on Source of Material Being Transported:
� Total load = Bed-load Material + Wash load
� Wash load consists of material that are finer thanthose found on bed. It amount mainly depends uponthe supply from watershed, not on the hydraulics ofriver.
Note: Most total load equations are actually total bed material load
equations. In the comparison between computed and measured total
bed-material, wash load should be subtracted from measurement
before comparison in most of cases.
