KEY POINTS: • 3D numerical simulations by using the PANORMUS model with the k-ε turbulence closure model to predict the flow patterns of a concordant river confluence. • Definition of the geometric features of the flow separation zone downstream of the junction between the main and tributary channels. • Prediction of the water free surface variations in the confluence area taking into account the pressure distribution at the surface of the computational domain.
