Description

A comprehensive investigation of the discharge source characteristics of confined disposal facilities within the Calcasieu Ship Channel was conducted. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD ) simulations were conducted to investigate the flow and sediment concentration characteristics near the disposal facilities and at a distance away from the facilities. The major model is an air-water-sediment 3-phase flow model with the standard 2 equation k-epsilon turbulence model. The standard wall functions are utilized. It includes an immiscible fluid Eulerian multiphase flow model with three Eulerian phases (air, water, and sediment).
