The standard multilayer Saint-Venant system consists in introducing fluidlayers that are advected by the interfacial velocities. As a consequence there is no massexchanges between these layers and each layer is described by its height and its averagevelocity.Here we introduce another multilayer system with mass exchanges between the neighboringlayers where the unknowns are a total height of water and an average velocity per layer.We derive it from Navier-Stokes system with an hydrostatic pressure and prove energy andhyperbolicity properties of the model. We also give a kinetic interpretation leading toeffective numerical schemes with positivity and energy properties. Numerical tests showthe versatility of the approach and its ability to compute recirculation cases with windforcing.
