Three-dimensional numerical simulation for the Yangshan port waters

Abstract

A three-dimensional numerical model FVCOM is applied and model results indicate obvious difference in the vertical direction of the current field in the Yangshan Port area.(1)In the Kezhu Hill waterway, flood current concentrates at the Kezhu Hill side, while the ebb current distributes more evenly, as far as the surface current is concerned, the bottom current is slightly anti-clockwise drift compared to the surface flow field.(2)In the port front area, residual current results show that ebb current dominates, especially at both sides, but at the east mouth, flood current of the bottom layer at left side shows its dominance, which makes aggregation and segregation of residual current locally.
