The mathematical simulation of two-dimensional water quality analysis in a bay is studied. The basic equations of the model consist of continuity equation, momentum equation and pollutant transport equation. These equations are analyzed by Leendertse's multi-operation scheme.
The Ulsan bay is selected as the area of the model application. Water surface elevation, velocity distribution and pollutant concentration distribution in the bay can be obtained from the study. The simulation results of the hydrodynamic model show that the velocity distribution is within the range of 10㎝/sec and the currents are mainly in the north-south direction, which have a good agreement with the observed data. Water quality modeling for some pollutants has further revealed that there is a discernible correlation between the calculated values and observed values.
The methodological procedure taken in this paper will provide a basic contribution to the pollutant transport analysis in a bay.
