OPTIMIZATION OF DESIGN OF THE FISH-SPAWNING PASS OF THE BAGAEVSKY HYDROELECTRIC COMPLEX USING NUMERICAL 2D MODELING

Abstract

Numerical hydrodynamic modeling of the flow of water and sediment through the fish-spawning pass of the Bagaevsky hydroelectric complex on the river Don is considered. The calculations use two-dimensional shallow water and sediment transport equations by the STREAM 2D CUDA software complex. Recommendations are made to change the longitudinal profile of the bottom and the configuration of the inlet section, as well as to increase the coefficient of roughness of the bottom and sides of the channel to ensure fish protection requirements.
