Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, a new numerical model, based on a set of non‐linear shallow water equations is developed for the simulation of the formation and evolution of tidal bore in the Hangzhou Gulf and Qiantangjiang river of China. The numerical method and boundary conditions are described in detail. The method is validated against analytical solutions and experimental data. Simulation of the actual tidal bore in Hangzhou Gulf and its propagation in the Qiantangjiang river are performed. Numerical results show that this proposed method is effective for the prediction of tidal bore and current flow at the entrance of Qiantangjiang river. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
