Supplementary data to: An open numerical model for the investigation of flow environments as experienced by freshwater fish

This data set comprises the supplementary materials of a benchmark case of the flow around a fish shaped body for numerical ecohydraulic and biological studies including a validated numerical model. The set comprises both experimental and numerical data. Flow measurements of a 3D printed fish shaped body were conducted with a 2D LDA device. The data set also includes a computational fluid dynamics model validated against the LDA data. The numerical model is based on the open source software tool OpenFOAM. All settings for experiments and the simulation case file are included for further research.
