Abstract

Spur dike is one of the hydraulic structures used in rivers to protect river banks. In this paper, flow pattern around a T-shaped spur dike which is located in a 90° bend and different amounts of submersion has been studied using Flow-3D. Numerical results have been compared with experimental results and have been analysed.
