Abstract

AbstractThe water body is just like a quasi‐static fluid after the impoundment of the Three Gorges Reservoir in China to 175 m water level in late 2010. In this paper, fluid dynamic model and numerical method were presented to analyse its dynamic characteristic. Then, based on an oil spill model coupled with the hydrodynamic model, the oil fractions evolvement with time as well as the recovery process with emergency actions under oil spills were numerically simulated and illustrated in the Three Gorges Reservoir. Emergency actions were accordingly analysed based on the simulated pollution area and density, by which a decay parameter was additionally brought into the simulation to understand the recovery of polluted area. The simulated results could be an aid for better emergency response strategy in case of oil spill accidents in the Three Gorges Reservoir in China.
