Simulation of spreading of non-conservative passive substances in water bodies
Аннотация
Abstract Numerical modeling has become an indispensable tool for solving various physical problems. In this context, two fundamentally different approaches to the derivation of equations describing the motion of a liquid and the transfer of both conservative and non-conservative substances that have or do not affect the flow structure. In addition to the classical approach, in which the hydrodynamic equations of the baroclinic fluid are obtained from the Reynolds equations by introducing the assumption that the turbulent viscosity between jets is neglected, there is another approach, which is to introduce a certain scale of consideration, as well as the use of hypotheses about the magnitude of turbulent viscosity and small changes of flow characteristics along with horizontal coordinates as compared with the changes along with vertical one. Thus, there is the option to obtain similar equations allowing to numerically simulating unsteady flows with fixed boundary conditions (fluctuating streams). Also, the article discusses an approach to numerical simulation of biogenic substances as well as the chemical and biological processes in reservoirs.
