Pollutant transport and residence time in a distorted scale model and a numerical model

A systematic investigation of the circulation, pollutant transport and residence time in a distorted scale model of the Windermere Basin was undertaken by using a numerical approach. A numerical hydrodynamic model was developed to simulate the circulation pattern in the basin. The experimentally validated flow circulation was used as input to the pollutant transport model to imulate the transport of a pollutant Continuous Iy introduced at the …
