Hello, I would like to know how to perform a heavy metal modelling using OpenFlows FLOOD that came from power plant waste. Can somebody help me?
Hello Muhammad,
Are you trying to model water quality downstream of the power plant? Is this related to pollutant tracking. If you are performing water quality analysis the MOHID Land engine in OpenFlows FLOOD has a Water Quality module which can help you out on this.
What kind of data do you currently have regarding the heavy metal waste from the power plant? Are you looking to model factors like diffusivity, decay etc. for the elements through water?
Can you elaborate on your objective on this study?
Regards,
Yashodhan Joshi
I'm trying to model heavy metal pollutant tracking. I want to know the distribution of particulated copper in the ocean. I already have the data of copper parameter from february and august
Dear Muhammad Alif,
With OpenFlows FLOOD you can simulate dispersion of different types pollutants (including heavy metals) in coastal waters using the MOHID Water numerical engine.
To do this you must first implement the hydrodynamic model of the area where the power plant discharge occurs, which I assume will have a water intake structure and outfall structure. Once you have the hydrodynamic model ready you can setup the pollutant transport model.
Then follow the instructions in the article: How to simulate pollutant partition in coastal waters
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Kind regards,Luis
Thanks a lot Luis and Yashodhan. I'll come back here if I found any obstacle. Cheers!
I've checked the instruction, but there's only described the Eulerian methodology. How to simulate using Lagrangian methodology?
