Numerical simulation of discharged waste heat and contaminants into the south estuary of the Yangtze river. (English) Zbl 0801.76072

A two-dimensional depth-averaged mathematical model based on the finite volume approach is formed, which can be used to compute the flow fields and contaminant movements driven by tidal flows in estuaries with variations in the river bed. The paper also presents a set of appropriate outflow boundary conditions for immersed outlets in water, when these outlets are important to the entire flow region. The results of the simulation and prediction are presented, and the effects of the outflow boundary conditions are also discussed.
