This book was released on 1986 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a literature review of reservior internal mixing processes, in which general transport processes, reservoir mixing processes and their effect on water quality, and one-dimensional predictive techniques and computer algorithms are presented and analyzed. The historical development of the recommended predictive techniques, including the assumptions, limitations, and advantages of the techniques used in the development, is also documented. The recommended one-dimensional mixing algorithm is generalized with respect to CE reservoirs and is not constrained by extensive data requirements nor limited in the mixing processes considered. The algorithm includes all major mixing processes in order to predict changes in the reservoir's mixing regime resulting from changes in hydrometeorological conditions and project operation. The recommended algorithms was used to simulate the thermal structure of over 15 reservoirs and lakes of varying geographical locations, size hydrometeorological regime, and operational configurations. The recommendations for the mixing algorithm are the opinions of the authors, and all phases of it are not necessary incorporated in the current one-dimensional CE reservoir model (CE- QUAL-R1).
Download or read book Mixing in Inland and Coastal Waters written by Hugo B. Fischer and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an outgrowth of research contributions and teaching experiences by all the authors in applying modern fluid mechanics to problems of pollutant transport and mixing in the water environment. It should be suitable for use in first year graduate level courses for engineering and science students, although more material is contained than can reasonably be taught in a one-year course, and most instructors will probably wish to cover only selected potions. The book should also be useful as a reference for practicing hydraulic and environmental engineers, as well as anyone involved in engineering studies for disposal of wastes into the environment. The practicing consulting or design engineer will find a thorough explanation of the fundamental processes, as well as many references to the current technical literature, the student should gain a deep enough understanding of basics to be able to read with understanding the future technical literature evolving in this evolving field.
Download or read book Parametric Investigation of Localized Mixing in Reservoirs written by Jeffery P. Holland and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the late spring or early summer months, many Corps of Engineers reservoirs become thermally stratified. The subsequent density stratification limits or negates vertical mixing in these reservoirs with the result that vertical strata of decreasing water quality are formed. Releases from the lowest of these strata, the hypolimnion, may be of generally poor quality due to its relative oxygen deficiency which results from the coupling of limited vertical mixing and hypolimnetic oxygen demand. Localized mixing, a simple and relatively inexpensive method for the enhancement of these releases, utilizes the effects of jet mixing to transport high-quality epilimnetic water down to the hypolimnetic withdrawal zone for dilution of the release. In order to effectively enhance downstream release quality, the localized mixing system must produce a jet of sufficient quantity and initial momentum so that it will both penetrate into the hypolimnion and adequately dilute the release. The results of laboratory investigations showed jet penetration into the hypolimnion to be a linear function of the densimetric Froude number at the thermocline. Qualitative analysis of the dilution of a given release showed a maximum dilution expected beyond which the additional pumping of epilimnetic water resulted in wasted resources. From these results, a procedure for the initial design of a localized mixing system was synthesized. An example of this design procedure is presented.
Download or read book Mixing and Dispersion in Flows Dominated by Rotation and Buoyancy written by Herman J.H. Clercx and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a state-of-the-art overview of current developments in the field in a way accessible to attendees coming from a variety of fields. Relevant examples are turbulence research, (environmental) fluid mechanics, lake hydrodynamics and atmospheric physics. Topics discussed range from the fundamentals of rotating and stratified flows, mixing and transport in stratified or rotating turbulence, transport in the atmospheric boundary layer, the dynamics of gravity and turbidity currents eventually with effects of background rotation or stratification, mixing in (stratified) lakes, and the Lagrangian approach in the analysis of transport processes in geophysical and environmental flows. The topics are discussed from fundamental, experimental and numerical points of view. Some contributions cover fundamental aspects including a number of the basic dynamical properties of rotating and or stratified (turbulent) flows, the mathematical description of these flows, some applications in the natural environment, and the Lagrangian statistical analysis of turbulent transport processes and turbulent transport of material particles (including, for example, inertial and finite-size effects). Four papers are dedicated to specific topics such as transport in (stratified) lakes, transport and mixing in the atmospheric boundary layer, mixing in stratified fluids and dynamics of turbidity currents. The book is addressed to doctoral students and postdoctoral researchers, but also to academic and industrial researchers and practicing engineers, with a background in mechanical engineering, applied physics, civil engineering, applied mathematics, meteorology, physical oceanography or physical limnology.

Download or read book Dynamic Programming Based Operation of Reservoirs written by K. D. W. Nandalal and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-10 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic programming is a method of solving multi-stage problems in which decisions at one stage become the conditions governing the succeeding stages. It can be applied to the management of water reservoirs, allowing them to be operated more efficiently. This is one of the few books dedicated solely to dynamic programming techniques used in reservoir management. It presents the applicability of these techniques and their limits on the operational analysis of reservoir systems. The dynamic programming models presented in this book have been applied to reservoir systems all over the world, helping the reader to appreciate the applicability and limits of these models. The book also includes a model for the operation of a reservoir during an emergency situation. This volume will be a valuable reference to researchers in hydrology, water resources and engineering, as well as professionals in reservoir management.

Download or read book Reservoir Fish Habitat Management written by L.E, Miranda and published by Lightning Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document is organized into an introduction and 13 sections. Section 1 is based on a nationwide survey of reservoir habitats completed by the Reservoir Fisheries Habitat Partnership (RFHP). The RFHP canvassed agency professionals about various aspects of reservoir fish habitat degradation, and identified 12 comprehensive factors that captured most degradation. The sections developed in this document parallel these 12 factors to identify management practices that address the perceived degradation. Most sections are organized similarly: background information about the degradation factor is followed by a listing of alternative management practices. Deciding on appropriate management action can be complex because there are often several options for addressing degradation problems. Different options may have different cost, effectiveness, and consequences. A simplified decision model to choose among management options is suggested in section 12. Habitat management often goes far beyond the manpower available to agencies involved in reservoir habitat management, so suggestions on working with stakeholders are included in section 13. Ballpark costs of reservoir fish habitat management practices are given in the Appendix.
