Interflow dynamics and three-dimensional modeling of turbid density currents in Imha Reservoir, South Korea
Altmetrics
Abstract
This study reports a detailed research identifying the turbid density flow regimes and propagation dynamics of density currents in Imha Reservoir in South Korea during Typhoon Ewiniar. We employ a high resolution 3-D numerical model (FLOW-3D), based on nonhydrostatic Navier-Stokes equations, to investigate the propagation of density flows resulting from the complicated reservoir morphometry and various mixing processes. The 3-D numerical model was modified to simulate particle-driven density currents. The particle dynamics algorithm builds upon the original FLOW-3D code in two ways: (1) improve ...
