Abstract

This paper presents a mathematical model of the thermal discharge under various operational capacities of thermal power plants, which is solved by the equations of Navier - Stokes and temperature for an incompressible fluid in a stratified medium based on the method of splitting by physical parameters that can be discretize by the control volume method. In the first step it is assumed that the transfer of momentum carried out only by convection and diffusion. Intermediate velocity field is solved by 5-step Runge - Kutta method. At the second stage, the pressure field is solved based on the found intermediate velocity field. The algorithm is parallelized on high-performance systems. The obtained numerical results of three-dimensional stratified turbulent flow reveals to approximate qualitatively and quantitatively the basic laws of hydrothermal processes occurring in the aquatic environment.
