Abstract
The phenomenon of pier induced scouring in alluvial rivers commences with the formation of a vortex, which wraps around the pier in the shape of a horseshoe vortex when viewed in plan. Viewing of the vortex had always been difficult due to its constricted location and turbulence associated with the phenomenon. Visualization of flow helps in understanding the associated phenomenon. Certain dyes used for the purpose have not been successful in the visualization of phenomenon under study. Mud flow visualization technique helps in viewing the phenomenon of scouring at the sediment-water-pier interaction junction. The technique is very effective in visualizing the phenomenon and thereafter in measuring the size of the vortex which may be used for predicting the scour depth.
