Book Mathematical Simulation of Transport of Sediment and Kepone in the James River Estuary

Download or read book Mathematical Simulation of Transport of Sediment and Kepone in the James River Estuary written by and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mathematical simulation of sediment and Kepone (a highly chlorinated pesticide) transport in the James River estuary was conducted by applying the sediment and contaminant transport model, FETRA, to an 85-km river reach between Bailey and Burwell Bays. The FETRA code is an unsteady, two-dimensional, finite model, utilizing the Galerkin weighted residual method. The model consists of three submodels coupled together to take into account sediment-contaminant interaction. the submodels are: (1) sediment transport model, (2) dissolved contaminant transport model, and (3) particulate contaminant (contaminants adsorbed by sediment) transport model. Transport of sediment and particulate contaminants is simulated for each sediment type or size fraction. The FETRA code was applied to simulate the migration of sediment and Kepone for three river discharges. Tidally influenced depth and velocity distributions in the study area were obtained by the unsteady, one-dimensional code, EXPLORE. These results were used by the two-dimensional code, FETRA, to obtain longitudinal distributions of sediment and Kepone. Hence, the results presented here are cross-sectionally averaged values changing with tidal flow. Comparison of computed results and field data for both sediment and Kepone concentrations indicates very good agreement, confirming the validity of the model. Mathematical simulation of Kepone transport under most probable flow conditions yields an estimate of 89.1 kg/yr of Kepone transported seaward from Burwell Bay. Of this 89.1 kg of total Kepone, 25.3% is carried by sediment, while 74.7% is in a dissolved phase.

This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progress of a mathematical simulation study concerning kepone migration in the James River Estuary between Bailey Bay and the river mouth is described. The simulation is currently underway by applying the finite element sediment and contaminant transport model, FETRA, to solve time-dependent, longitudinal and lateral distributions of sediments and kepone by taking into account sediment-kepone interaction. The FETRA code solves sediment transport for three sediment types (i.e., cohesive and noncohesive sediments, and organic materials). The model also solves kepone transport for dissolved and particulate (attached to sediments) kepone. Particulate kepone is analyzed for those adsorbed by sediment of each sediment type. The accuracy and convergence of the FETRA code were tested for simple one- and two-dimensional equations. These test results indicated excellent agreement between the computer solutions and exact analytical solutions.

Book Hydrodynamics and Transport for Water Quality Modeling

Download or read book Hydrodynamics and Transport for Water Quality Modeling written by James L. Martin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrodynamics and Transport for Water Quality Modeling presents a complete overview of current methods used to describe or predict transport in aquatic systems, with special emphasis on water quality modeling. The book features detailed descriptions of each method, supported by sample applications and case studies drawn from the authors' years of experience in the field. Each chapter examines a variety of modeling approaches, from simple to complex. This unique text/reference offers a wealth of information previously unavailable from a single source. The book begins with an overview of basic principles, and an introduction to the measurement and analysis of flow. The following section focuses on rivers and streams, including model complexity and data requirements, methods for estimating mixing, hydrologic routing methods, and unsteady flow modeling. The third section considers lakes and reservoirs, and discusses stratification and temperature modeling, mixing methods, reservoir routing and water balances, and dynamic modeling using one-, two-, and three-dimensional models. The book concludes with a section on estuaries, containing topics such as origins and classification, tides, mixing methods, tidally averaged estuary models, and dynamic modeling. Over 250 figures support the text. This is a valuable guide for students and practicing modelers who do not have extensive backgrounds in fluid dynamics.
