The biharmonic coefficient is an extra term that is added to the horizontal turbulent viscous flux, J:
A ready made formula that would estimate the order of magnitude of the 
coefficient would be
where U is a typical flow velocity and 
is the numerical model horizontal resolution.
MOHID
In mohid, you need to add in the Hydrodynamic_x.dat the following keywords:
BIHARMONIC : [0/1] <-- Activates de biharmonic viscous flux BIHARMONIC_COEF : [Real] <-- Sets the value of
