Application of EFDC Model in Preventing Water Quality Deterioration through Water Circulation

The EFDC model is applied to predict the flow field of two typical circulating water body impacted by both pump driven current and wind-driven current. The result demonstrates that there exists strong effect between pump driven current and wind-driven current. The wind can effectively reduce the area of low velocity zone of pump drive current as well as the power consumption of pump. And the increased high velocity area could better inhibit the algae growth and thus prevents degradation of water quality.
