Abstract
The largest economic center in Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh City, is facing increasingly serious riverbank erosion, one of the main reasons being the flow. Therefore, in this study, the flow velocity field on the Saigon River section is accurately analyzed in different time intervals with the help of MIKE 11 and MIKE 21 models. The simulation results show that The number of flow velocities in the middle of the river is 3-4 times greater than that of the two banks. However, between high tide and low tide, the flow on both sides of the river is faster than the main flow, especially in the upper part of the winding banks, such as the section from Ben Nghe sluice to Tan Thuan, sewer and river section from An Loi Dong Ward police station to Thu Thiem Bridge 2. The velocity value on the studied river section, in most cases, exceeds the allowable value of the non-erosion velocity of the bed material particles. , riverbanks, as well as suspended sediment particles. Therefore, the erosion process on both sides of the river will occur regularly and continuously, so urgent measures are needed to protect the riverbank. During the operation of the anti-flood sluice, the flow velocity will decrease slightly before sluices also appear as whirlpools. The flow velocity on the Saigon River has a complex distribution and changes from time to time depending on the flood discharge from Dau Tieng Lake and the tidal currents of the East Sea.
