In this paper, the shallow water equations are transformed under the generalized curvilinear coordinate system and the elliptic differential equations are used to generate curvilinear grids, so a model in generalized curviline ar coordinate is presented to simulate 2D horizontal cooling water, Governing equations of the model are discretized by finite volume method, and non-staggered grids and SIMPLE algorithm are introduced to simplify the program during the discretization. This model is used to simulate the movement of cooling water in a simplified meandering channel and a natural channel, calculating results indicate this model can correctly reflect the movement rules of cooling water, which verifies the model can be applied in engineering practice.展开更多

In the model, the Boussinesq-type equations including the dissipation terms are em- ployed as the governing equations. In the present model, the dependent variables of the transformed equations are the free surface elevation and the utility velocity variables, instead of the usual primitive velocity variables. The introduction of utility velocity variables which are the products of the contravariant components of the velocity vector and the Jacobi ma- trix can make the transformed equations relatively concise, the treatment of lateral boundary conditions easier and the de- velopment of the program simpler. The predictor-corrector method and five-point finite-difference scheme are employed to discretize the time derivatives and the spatial ones, respectively. The numerical model is tested for three cases. It is found that the numerical results are in good agreement with the analytical results and experimental data.展开更多
