Research Abstract |
Water temperature in a lake is one of the most important indices to consider the lake environments. This research was carried out to develop a numerical model for the long term prediction of water temperature structure in Lake Biwa. One dimensional models with 0-equation model and 2-equation k-ε model were firstly tested to simulate the vertical water temperature for one-year, using the monthly averaged meteorological data. It was shown that the calculated results by 0-equation model is in good agreement with the observed results generally, though it is needed to use the k-ε model to predict the strongly stratified temperature distribution. In the one dimensional model, when a temperature at a depth is less then the averaged temperature over the depth, the temperatures over the depth are replaced to the averaged one to simulate natural convection due to the hydrodynamic instability. The natural convection occurring in a stratified lake was investigated by using 3-D numerical model with N-S equation. It was shown that, the downward flows caused by heat radiation at a water surface induce the mixing at the density interface, and lower the position of interface with the increase, of time.
