Environmental Modelling – A Delft3D Flexible Mesh training in Environmental Modelling (for US and Canadian users)

Some areas of applications
• Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), objective evaluation of alternatives
• Sewage and/or storm water outfall studies
• Bio-availability of heavy metals (and organic micropollutants)
• Recirculation of cooling water from power and desalination plants including the release of bio-fouling chemicals such as chlorine
• Simulation of oil spills with floating and dispersed oil fractions.
Objective of the course
Setting up and running a water quality, an ecological, particle tracking as well as an oil disposal simulation.
Course subjects
- Some basic theoretical concepts of environmental modelling
- Some numerical aspect to transport modelling
- Coupling hydrodynamic output to the environmental model input
- Selecting substances and processes with the Processes Library Configuration Tool
- Setting up and running a sediment, oxygen, nutrients and algae simulation
- Setting up and running a tracer simulation.
This course is aimed at
- Knowledge how to model the hydrodynamics
- Project engineers, project leaders and researchers.
Online format
In preparation of the training, we’ll send you all the material and will ask you to install the stand-alone Delft3D Flexible Mesh application on your own machine. While attending the training, it will be essential that you have a sufficiently fast internet connection to support a video call, as well as a headset.
The use of Windows is required for the Delft3D courses. For the Technical Specifications of the Delft3D FM Suite, click here.
