This invention provides a device and method for simulating
sediment resuspension under hydrodynamic action, relating to the field of
sediment simulation. Addressing the problem that
current wave-generating simulations of dynamic disturbances easily lead to the breakage of
suspended particles, this invention simulates the action of
water flow in a natural river by installing baffles within the water tank cavity to form multiple flow channels. The segmented circulation of
water flow simulates the
sediment resuspension process. When the grid blades agitate the water, the grid structure divides the
water flow into multiple smaller streams, thus dispersing the force of the water flow. The originally concentrated
impact force is dispersed to various parts of the grid, and when it is transmitted to the
suspended particles, the magnitude and concentration of the force are significantly reduced, preventing the particles from breaking due to excessive external force.
