2-D Mathematical Model for Nonuniform Sediment Transport in Yangtze Estuary

A 2 D horizontal mathematical model is established for suspended sediment transport based on the character of hydraulic and suspended sediment in Yangtze estuary. In the model the effects of wave on momentum equation and sediment capacity are considered. The fine sediment settling velocity due to flocculation is determined by sediment grain, salt, sediment concentration, and flow turbulence. A boundary fitted curvilinear coordinate system has been deployed to obtain a more accurate solution of SSC. The operator splitting algorithm and the Ultimate Quickest scheme have been used to solve the sediment transport equation. The calculated results are in close agreement with field observation, which shows this model can predict suspended sediment transport in Yangtze estuary.
