Comparison of sediment spatial distribution out of simulation and experiments. a Simulated deposits in the tank (at the moment of 100 s, the legend indicates the different particle size in meter); b simulated deposits + moving bed load with a thin layer (less than 0.002 m), with the arrow indicating the velocities of the particles and the dotted line indicating the observed preferential sediment zone; and c overhead view of experimental sediment spatial distribution after 100 s of first injection of sediments, with the dotted line indicating the observed preferential sediment zone for the purpose of comparison in the most active zone and the curved arrow indicating the vortex direction
