Local scoruring phenomena in river bend, generally affected from secondary and centrifugal flow. The chracteristic of flow surrounding the curve created eddies wich is showed inconsistency of flow model. The effect of those flow are the differentiation of water level at closed out of divert channel. The numerical model and laboratory modeling was conducted in all research aspect. Some model used to calibrate the laboratory work and it compared with numerical model. The result of the research showed the cross section deformation. The transverse duct deformed market as the water level rise in turning canal and it is indicated from Froude number variation. The increased of surface leval around the river bend was correlated to velocity. And The consequences of surface rise and flow accumulation at stream curve is river bank erosion.

This paper presents a numerical simulation of recirculating flow patterns in groyne fields. Moreover, it entails the concept determination of proper spacing of vertical unsubmerged and impermeable groynesin seriesto control the bank erosion. Flow pattern between the groynes varies along their space. The flow in groyne field may significantly affect the flow change, bed change, bank erosion and condition of habitat. In this regard, an assessment of flow along the space of groynes will yield important data needed to diversify the object of groyne installation. So, knowledge about determination of the proper spacing of groynes in groyne field is important. Space of vertical groynes was set from 1.5 to 10 times the length of groynes. The velocity field between groynes was simulated by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model Nays 2D. Simulated velocity field was compared with existing experimentaldata for the same parameter, which agreed satisfactorily. Based on simulated results,the optimal spacing of vertical groynes to control the bank erosion was recommended.
