Effect of suction on flow characteristics and sediment transport in closed-conduit flows

This study presents experimental studies on suction effects on sediment transport and flow characteristics such as velocity profile, turbulence and shear stress distribution, etc. The results show that the bedload transport rate increases with suction rate (with a constant undisturbed oncoming flow...
