Simulación 2D del Comportamiento Térmico de Cuencos Afectados por Marea Frente a Descargas Antrópicas

Abstract

This paper presents a methodology for the two-dimensional simulation of the temperature increase originated by discharges of refrigeration systems of thermal power stations in water bodies subjected to tide action It is based in the uncoupled calculus of the hydrodynamic and thermal fields.
The numerical simulation of the hydrodynamics, as succesive stationary states. is desctibed. The thermal simulation with the heat transport treated through the concept of gaussian spots is also described. The results of a study case is presented
