Abstract
This paper presents a real three-dimensional numerical model for the calculation of complex flow and transport phenomenas in reservoirs, coastal lakes and lagoons. The turbulent processes are simulated with the large-eddy technique. Finite elements of arbitrary shape and with unstructured mesh topology are used to approximate spatial operators. The model is verified by the calculation of a straight channel flow and the comparison to data from the literature. Additionally a physical model experiment is recalculated for a validation of the model. Further applications of flow and transport in a real reservoir are shown in an accompanying paper by Bergen et al. [1]. 1 Introduction The flow and transport phenomena
