Although its average water quality meets Class I of the China National Water Quality Standard (CNWQS), i.e., GB3838-2002, monitoring data indicate that the water quality approaches the Class II threshold in some areas. Thus it is urgent to reduce the watershed load through the total maximum daily load (TMDL) program. A three-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model was developed for Lake Fuxian, simulating flow circulation and pollutant fate and transport. The model development process consists of several steps, including grid generation, initial and boundary condition configurations, and model calibration processes. The model accurately reproduced the observed water surface elevation, spatiotemporal variations in temperature, and total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentrations, suggesting a reasonable numerical representation of the prototype system for further TMDL analyses. The TMDL was calculated using two interpretations of the water quality standards for Class I of the CNWQS based on the maximum instantaneous surface and annual average surface water concentrations. Analysis of the first scenario indicated that the TN, TP and COD loads should be reduced by 66%, 68% and 57%, respectively. Water quality was the highest priority; however, local economic development and cost feasibility for load reduction can pose significant issues. In the second interpretation, the model results showed that, under the existing conditions, the average water quality meets the Class I standard and therefore load reduction is unnecessary. Future studies are needed to conduct risk and cost assessments for realistic decision-making.展开更多

Accurate hydrodynamics coefficients measurement and spatial modeling of ROV are significant for the maneuverability and control algorithm. The scaled model of ROV was constructed by 1:1.6. Hydrodynamics coefficients were measured through VPMM and LAHPMM towing test. And dynamics model was derived as a set of equations, describing nonlinear and coupled 5-DOF spatial motions. Rotation control motion was simulated to verify spatial model proposed. Research and application of hydrodynamics coefficients are expected to enable ROV to overcome uncertainty and disturbances of deepsea environment, and accomplish some more challengeable and practical missions.展开更多

The numerical simulation results are consistent with results observed by experimental means. A comparative study indicates that the corresponding errors of forces between calculated values and values observed in the experiment vary in the range of2.3%-11.2% and that the corresponding errors of velocities vary in the range of 1.3%-15.8%. The flow field numerical results show that upstream and vortices exist when the current passes over and through the surface of the reef model. This study suggests that the numerical simulation method can be applied to predict the forces and flow field associated with artificial reefs.展开更多

Through establis...Widely applied in maintaining estuarial waterway depth, the spur dike has played an important role in currents and sediment exchange between channel and shoal and sediment back-silting in the channel. Through establishing a generalized physical model at a bifurcated estuary and conducting current tests under the joint action of runoff and tide, the influence of the spur dike length on current exchange between channel and shoal is analyzed. Results show that when the spur dike length reaches a certain value, the direction of the flow velocity shear front between the channel and shoal will change. The longer the spur dike, the larger the transverse fluctuating velocity at the peak of flood in the channel shoal exchange area, while the transport of the transverse hydrodynamics is obvious in the process of flood. There is an optimum length of spur dike when the shear stress in the channel and the longitudinal velocity in flood and ebb reach the maximum, and the flow velocity will decrease when the spur dike length is smaller or larger than the optimum. For a certain length of spur dike, the larger the channel shoal elevation difference, the larger the peak longitudinal flow velocity in the middle of the navigation channel in flood and ebb. However, the transverse flow velocity will first decrease and then increase. The transverse transportation is obvious when the channel shoal elevation difference increases.展开更多

文摘Erosion is an important issue in soil science and is related to many environmental problems,such as soil erosion and sediment transport.Establishing a simulation model suitable for soil erosion prediction is of great significance not only to accurately predict the process of soil separation by runoff,but also improve the physical model of soil erosion.In this study,we develop a graphic processing unit(GPU)-based numerical model that combines two-dimensional(2D)hydrodynamic and Green-Ampt(G-A)infiltration modelling to simulate soil erosion.A Godunov-type scheme on a uniform and structured square grid is then generated to solve the relevant shallow water equations(SWEs).The highlight of this study is the use of GPU-based acceleration technology to enable numerical models to simulate slope and watershed erosion in an efficient and high-resolution manner.The results show that the hydrodynamic model performs well in simulating soil erosion process.Soil erosion is studied by conducting calculation verification at the slope and basin scales.The first case involves simulating soil erosion process of a slope surface under indoor artificial rainfall conditions from 0 to 1000 s,and there is a good agreement between the simulated values and the measured values for the runoff velocity.The second case is a river basin experiment(Coquet River Basin)that involves watershed erosion.Simulations of the erosion depth change and erosion cumulative amount of the basin during a period of 1-40 h show an elevation difference of erosion at 0.5-3.0 m,especially during the period of 20-30 h.Nine cross sections in the basin are selected for simulation and the results reveal that the depth of erosion change value ranges from-0.86 to-2.79 m and the depth of deposition change value varies from 0.38 to 1.02 m.The findings indicate that the developed GPU-based hydrogeomorphological model can reproduce soil erosion processes.These results are valuable for rainfall runoff and soil erosion predictions on rilled hillslopes and river basins.

文摘The synergetic technology of hydrodynamic cavitation(HC)and peroxydisulfate(PDS)has been adopted for the treatment of organic pollutants,while the rationale behind the thermal-activation of PDS in this process remains lacking.This paper presented investigation on the degradation of tetracycline under two types of operating conditions,including“internal reaction conditions”(pH value and TC/PDS molar ratio)and“external physical conditions”(hole shape,solution temperature and inlet pressure).Special emphasis was paid on the analysis of thermal effects through a robust modeling approach.The results showed that a synergy index of 6.26 and a degradation rate of 56.71%could be obtained by the HC-PDS process,respectively,when the reaction conditions were optimized.Quenching experiment revealed that·OH and·SO_(4)^(-)were the predominant free radicals and their contribution to the degradation was 75.4%and 24.6%respectively,since a part of·SO_(4)^(-)was transformed into·OH in the solution.The thermal activation of PDS mainly occurred near the hole where the fitting temperature was around 340 K,while·OH was generated in the bubble collapse region downstream the hole,where the temperature was much higher and favorable for the cleavage of water molecular.The average temperature under different external physical conditions was in good consistence with the degradation rates.This research developed a useful method to effectively evaluate the activation extent of PDS by HC and could provide reliable guidance for further development of cavitational reactors to treat organic pollutants based on this hybrid approach.

文摘Natural convection is a heat transfer mechanism driven by temperature or density differences,leading to fluid motion without external influence.It occurs in various natural and engineering phenomena,influencing heat transfer,climate,and fluid mixing in industrial processes.This work aims to use the Updated Lagrangian Particle Hydrodynamics(ULPH)theory to address natural convection problems.The Navier-Stokes equation is discretized using second-order nonlocal differential operators,allowing a direct solution of the Laplace operator for temperature in the energy equation.Various numerical simulations,including cases such as natural convection in square cavities and two concentric cylinders,were conducted to validate the reliability of the model.The results demonstrate that the proposed model exhibits excellent accuracy and performance,providing a promising and effective numerical approach for natural convection problems.

文摘The problem of flooding in Central Vietnam in general and the lower Ba River in particular is one of the natural disasters that frequently threatens people's lives and socioeconomic development in the region.Especially,climate change is becoming ever more prominent and hotter,making extreme natural disasters more unusual and unpredictable.In this research,MIKE-FLOOD—a model that connects a 1-dimensional(1-D)MIKE 11 Hydrodynamics(HD)model with a 2-dimensional(2-D)MIKE 21 HD model—was used to set up.The model was calculated for three floods:(1)flood in October 1993,(2)flood in November 2003,and(3)flood in November 2007;these are floods with high frequency and relatively large magnitude.The results show that the 1993 flood rose and receded quickly.The flood peak inundated an area of 22,600 ha,accounting for 52%of the natural area.The flooded areas deeper than 1,2,3,4,and 5m were 16500,11,000,7000,4200,and 2200 ha,respectively.In the center of Tuy Hoa city,the flooded area at the time of maximum water level was almost 100%.

文摘Artificial fish reef is a kind of artificial structure in water,which provides a necessary and safe place for aquatic life such as fish to inhabit,grow,and breed,and creates an environment suitable for fish growth,so as to protect and multiply fishery resources.In a large time scale,the physical process of sea area can deeply affect the chemical process and biological process,so the structure characteristics of artificial reef are the key factors affecting the flow field effect around the reef.In this study,through the hydrodynamic experiments of four kinds of reef models,including big windows box reef,big and small windows box reef,"(卐)"shaped reef and double-layer shellfish breeding reef,the influence of single reef structure on the flow field effect is analyzed,and the force conditions of different reefs under the same incoming current velocity are obtained.According to the simulation results,the safety research and calculation of five kinds of reef models are carried out,and the volumes of vortex area and upwelling area behind four kinds of reef are obtained.Using hydrodynamic model to simulate the flow field effect of reef area,optimizing the reef structure design,improving the maximum biological trapping and proliferation effect of reef,can provide theoretical guidance and scientific and technological support for the construction of reef area.

文摘Integrating wave energy converters(WECs)with offshore platforms offers numerous advantages,such as reducing wave loads,supplying energy to the platform,and cost-sharing in construction.This paper reports an experimental investigation focusing on the hydrodynamic characteristics of a proposed modular floating structure system integrated with WEC-type floating artificial reefs.The proposed system comprises several serially arranged hexagonal floating structures,anchored by tension legs,and integrated with outermost WEC-type floating artificial reefs.A simplified wave energy converter utilizing the relative pitch motion between adjacent modules for energy conversion was constructed in the scale model test.The effects of chain-type modular expansion on the multi-body motion response,mooring tension response,and WEC performance of the system have been thoroughly investigated.The experimental results indicate that increasing the number of hexagonal modules can notably reduce the system’s surge response,particularly under survival sea conditions.The connection of the outermost reef modules slightly increases the tension leg load of the adjacent module,whereas the tension leg load remains relatively consistent across the inner hexagonal modules.Furthermore,through a comparison of the dynamic responses of the hexagonal module connected and unconnected outermost reefs,the good performance in terms of energy conversion and wave attenuation of the WECtype floating artificial reef modules was effectively validated.The main results from this work can provide useful references for engineering applications involving modular floating structures integrated with WECs.

文摘Lake Fuxian is the largest deep freshwater lake in China. Although its average water quality meets Class I of the China National Water Quality Standard (CNWQS), i.e., GB3838-2002, monitoring data indicate that the water quality approaches the Class II threshold in some areas. Thus it is urgent to reduce the watershed load through the total maximum daily load (TMDL) program. A three-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model was developed for Lake Fuxian, simulating flow circulation and pollutant fate and transport. The model development process consists of several steps, including grid generation, initial and boundary condition configurations, and model calibration processes. The model accurately reproduced the observed water surface elevation, spatiotemporal variations in temperature, and total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentrations, suggesting a reasonable numerical representation of the prototype system for further TMDL analyses. The TMDL was calculated using two interpretations of the water quality standards for Class I of the CNWQS based on the maximum instantaneous surface and annual average surface water concentrations. Analysis of the first scenario indicated that the TN, TP and COD loads should be reduced by 66%, 68% and 57%, respectively. Water quality was the highest priority; however, local economic development and cost feasibility for load reduction can pose significant issues. In the second interpretation, the model results showed that, under the existing conditions, the average water quality meets the Class I standard and therefore load reduction is unnecessary. Future studies are needed to conduct risk and cost assessments for realistic decision-making.

文摘This paper presents the features of newly designed hydrodynamics test for the scaled model of 4500 m deepsea open-framed remotely operated vehicle (ROV), which is being researched and developed by Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Accurate hydrodynamics coefficients measurement and spatial modeling of ROV are significant for the maneuverability and control algorithm. The scaled model of ROV was constructed by 1:1.6. Hydrodynamics coefficients were measured through VPMM and LAHPMM towing test. And dynamics model was derived as a set of equations, describing nonlinear and coupled 5-DOF spatial motions. Rotation control motion was simulated to verify spatial model proposed. Research and application of hydrodynamics coefficients are expected to enable ROV to overcome uncertainty and disturbances of deepsea environment, and accomplish some more challengeable and practical missions.

文摘With the acceleration of marine construction in China,the exploitation and utilization of resources from islands and reefs are necessary.To prevent and dissipate waves in the process of resource exploitation and utilization,a more effective method is to install floating breakwaters near the terrain of islands and reefs.The terrain around islands and reefs is complex,and waves undergo a series of changes due to the impact of the complex terrain in transmission.It is important to find a suitable location for floating breakwater systems on islands and reefs and investigate how the terrain affects the system’s hydrodynamic performance.This paper introduces a three-cylinder floating breakwater design.The breakwater system consists of 8 units connected by elastic structures and secured by a slack mooring system.To evaluate its effectiveness,a 3D model experiment was conducted in a wave basin.During the experiment,a model resembling the islands and reefs terrain was created on the basis of the water depth map of a specific region in the East China Sea.The transmission coefficients and motion responses of the three-cylinder floating breakwater system were then measured.This was done both in the middle of and behind the islands and reefs terrain.According to the experimental results,the three-cylinder floating breakwater system performs better in terms of hydrodynamics when it is placed behind the terrain of islands and reefs than in the middle of the same terrain.

文摘The hydrodynamic forces and flow field of artificial reef models in steady flow were numerically investigated using the RNG κ-ε turbulent model. The numerical simulation results are consistent with results observed by experimental means. A comparative study indicates that the corresponding errors of forces between calculated values and values observed in the experiment vary in the range of2.3%-11.2% and that the corresponding errors of velocities vary in the range of 1.3%-15.8%. The flow field numerical results show that upstream and vortices exist when the current passes over and through the surface of the reef model. This study suggests that the numerical simulation method can be applied to predict the forces and flow field associated with artificial reefs.

文摘Widely applied in maintaining estuarial waterway depth, the spur dike has played an important role in currents and sediment exchange between channel and shoal and sediment back-silting in the channel. Through establishing a generalized physical model at a bifurcated estuary and conducting current tests under the joint action of runoff and tide, the influence of the spur dike length on current exchange between channel and shoal is analyzed. Results show that when the spur dike length reaches a certain value, the direction of the flow velocity shear front between the channel and shoal will change. The longer the spur dike, the larger the transverse fluctuating velocity at the peak of flood in the channel shoal exchange area, while the transport of the transverse hydrodynamics is obvious in the process of flood. There is an optimum length of spur dike when the shear stress in the channel and the longitudinal velocity in flood and ebb reach the maximum, and the flow velocity will decrease when the spur dike length is smaller or larger than the optimum. For a certain length of spur dike, the larger the channel shoal elevation difference, the larger the peak longitudinal flow velocity in the middle of the navigation channel in flood and ebb. However, the transverse flow velocity will first decrease and then increase. The transverse transportation is obvious when the channel shoal elevation difference increases.
文摘Merits of the Fernandes model(Fernandes et al.1983)for two-phase slug flow in verticaltubes are reviewed in this paper.While predicting many macroscopic parameters of slug flow in verti-cal tubes,it fails to present correctly the trend that the average voidage in liquid slugs increases asthe rising velocity of Taylor bubbles is increased.It is also desirable to extend its application toelectrolyte systems, and to churn flow conditions.Based on the diagnostic analysis,the model equa-tion for gas entrainment by falling liquid film is reformulated and the influence of surface tension isalso accounted for.Development of the falling liquid film is recognized in the revised model in or-der to suit the case of short Taylor bubbles as well.The modified model predicts the variation of av-erage voidage in liquid slugs in good agreement with available experimental data.
