摘要

When natural muds become mixed with sandy sediments in estuaries, it has a direct effect on the flocculation process and resultant sediment transport regime. Much research has been completed on the erosion and consolidation of mud/sand mixtures, but very little is known quantitatively about how mixed sediments interact whilst in suspension, particularly in terms of flocculation. This paper presents the settling velocity findings from a recent laboratory study which examined the floeculation dynamics for three different mud/sand mixtures at different concentrations (0.2-5 g.l~(-1)) and turbulent shear stresses (0.06-0.9 Pa) in a mini-annular flume. The low intrusive video-based Laboratory Spectral Floeculation Characteristics instrument was used to determine floc/aggregate properties (e.g., size, settling velocity, density and mass) for each population. Settling data was assessed in terms of macrofloc (> 160 μm) and microfloc (< 160 μm) settling parameters: Ws_(macro) and Ws_(micro), respectively. For pure muds, the macroflocs are regarded as the most dominant contributors to the total depositional flux. The parameter-ised settling data indicates that by adding more sand to a mud/sand mixture, the fall velocity of the macrofloc fraction slows and the settling velocity of microflocsrnquickens. Generally, a mainly sandy suspension comprising 25% mud and 75% sand (25M:75S), will produce resultant Ws_(macro) which are slower than Ws_(micro). The quickest Ws_(micro) appears to consistently occur at a higher level of turbulent shear stress (τ~0.6 Pa) than both the macrofloc and microfloc fractions from suspensions of pure natural muds. Floeculation within a more cohesively dominant muddy-sand suspension (I.e., 75M:25S) produced macroflocs which fell at similar speeds (±10%) to pure mud suspensions at both low (200 mg l~(-1)) and intermediate (1 g l~(-1)) concentrations at all shear stress increments. Also, low sand content suspensions produced Ws_(macro) values that were faster than the Ws_(micro) rates. In summary, the experimental results of the macrofloc and microfloc settling velocities have demonstrated that floeculation is an extremely important factor with regards to the depositional behaviour of mud/sand mixtures, and these factors must be considered when modelling mixed sediment transport in the estuarine or marine environment.
