abstract

  • HydroTrackTM provides high precision analysis with full graphics and comprehensive report writing. It is an essential tool for professionals and researchers working in water pollution problems. HydroTrackTM consists of two closely linked programs: the hydrodynamic kernel solves the 2-D shallow water equations with a finite-difference scheme to obtain the flow velocities and water surface elevations in any complex geometry site; the integrated pollutant transport model tracks the pollutant using a 3-D tracer particle method taking into account advection by flow velocities, turbulent dispersion and buoyancy effects. In addition to this, the pollutant model may also be used independently from the hydrodynamic kernel for quick preliminary simulations.
