In this study, details of a developed numerical model and results of modeling of the flow around cylindrical piers are presented. The governing equations are Navier-Stokes and continuity equations. Discretization of the equations is carried out by finite volume method. Modeling of turbulent flow is done by two different methods namely RANS and LES. The method of solution of equations is the artificial compressibility method with two different single and dual time-stepping methods. Considering the adopted time-stepping method, the implicit or explicit time discretizations are adopted in simulations. Results of the present numerical modeling are compared with experimental data of flow around cylindrical piers. Results of this study show the influence of the method of solution, time-stepping method and turbulence modeling methods on the results of flow around cylindrical piers.
