The 3-D complex turbulent flow fields in aplunge pool with arciform bottom are simulated by using thek-ε model in body-fitted coordinates. The calculated results re-veal the flow characteristics in the arciform plunge pool underthe different flood discharge conditions, which can not be easi-ly obtained in the physical model test because the measure-ment of the complex velocity is very difficult. The calculatedflow fields are helpful to understand in depth the hydrauliccharacteristics of plunge pool. The calculated and the meas-ured pressure distributions on the pool bottom are comparedand in good agreement.
