Abstract:

The temperature field and induced flow in the water area surrounding floating atomic power-plant (FAPP) are determined by means of computational fluid dynamics for different types of FAPP positioning (in the roadstead and near the wall in open or closed berthing). The degree of water environment heat pollution by discharge of the heated water is estimated on the base of obtained results.
