As part of efforts to enhance the performance of the system, the river engineering and urban drainage research center (REDAC) module was developed. This study modelled the hydrodynamics of flow through this module using FLOW-3D and laboratory experiments for two cases of free flow without module (FFWM) and flow with a module (FWM) to understand and visualize the effects of the module. With less than 5 error between the numerical and experimental results, REDAC module altered the flow pattern and created resistance by increasing the Manning's roughness coefficient at the upstream, depth-averaged flow velocity (43.50 cm/s to about 46.50 cm/s) at the downstream and decreasing water depth (7.75-6.50 cm). These variations can be attributed to the complex nature of the module pattern with further increase across the porous openings. Therefore, the technique used herein can be applied to characterize the behavior of fluids in larger arrangments of modules and under different flow conditions without the need for expensive laboratory experiments. © 2019 by the authors. date: 2019 publisher: MDPI AG official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85072226468&doi=10.3390%2fw11091823&partnerID=40&md5=cbc962d69ae56030ffcc8168095c47a3 id_number: 10.3390/w11091823 full_text_status: none publication: Water (Switzerland) volume: 11 number: 9 refereed: TRUE issn: 20734441 citation: Abdurrasheed, A.S. and Yusof, K.W. and Hussein Alqadami, E.H. and Takaijudin, H. and Ghani, A.A. and Muhammad, M.M. and Sholagberu, A.T. and Zainalfikry, M.K. and Osman, M. and Patel, M.S.
