Numerical Study on Navigation Regulation Engineering in the Lower Reaches of Yangtze River

Abstract:

The waterway of Jiangxinzhou to Wujiang section is the only hindering navigation section in Wuhu to Nanjing of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Because of the unsteadiness of the main stream, the navigation condition in this section tends to worse, in which the regulation work is sorely needed and more important. The major problem for channel regulation in this section is the design of regulation project. In this paper, the 2D numerical model for simulating the flow and sediment in the waterway of Jiangxinzhou-Wujiang section is used to analyze these questions. From the numerical simulation results, we know that the overall navigation regulation project can solve the problem of hindering navigation.
