Abstract: This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) demonstrates the construction of a three-dimensional (3-D) computational flow model of a lock filling system. A numerical flow model capable of simulating flows in navigation locks will provide an economical tool for detailed evaluation of locks and lock components. A description of the construction, implementation, and evaluation of a 3-D model of a lock filling system is presented. Computational and hydraulic engineering issues regarding implementation are discussed.
