Tidal residual circulation produced by a tidal vortex   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
“TIDAL VORTEX” is a term for a kind of starting vortex formed as a pair of vortices at the head of a tidal jet emanating from a narrow entrance into a bay. In this study, its formation and movement have been investigated by means of a hydraulic experiment and an analytical model. A tidal vortex is formed as a result of flow separation at the abrupt widening of a channel entrance followed by rolling up of the discontinuity surface around its free end. The vortex shows three types of life-history (type I, II and III), which are characterized by the Strouhal number and the aspect ratio of the horizontal shape of the entrance channel. In the case of type-I, the tidal vortex proceeds toward the inner region of the bay and there amalgamates with successive vortex cores into a core of tidal residual circulation. In the case of type-II, the tidal vortex core flows out into the entrance channel on the ebb but returns back into the bay on the subsequent flood. And, in the case of type-III, the tidal vortex core which was formed on the bay-side opening of the entrance channel flows out to the open sea and never comes back, whereas the core which was formed on the open-sea side of the entrance flows into the bay and never flows out. The circulation of a tidal vortex core is proportional to the reciprocal of the Strouhal number. The movement of the core near the bay entrance is determined by interaction between the cores and transportation due to the irrotational component of the tidal current. There are three types of tidal residual circulation, corresponding to three life-history types of tidal vortices. In the case of type-I, a strong tidal residual circulation is formed, but in type-II a small and weak circulation is formed. While, in type-III, the circulation having an inverse sense of rotation to that of type-I is formed.  相似文献

A self-excited oscillation of tidal flow occurs in a tidal channel-basin system with a narrow and high speed inflowing tidal jet. The mechanism of this oscillation was examined through hydraulic experiments. Results show that the oscillation is caused by alternation in the strength of asymmetric residual circulation caused by a biased supply of vorticity by asymmetric tidal vortex pairs, and that the mechanism of alternation also depends on negative feed-back between the residual circulation and the vorticity supply.The unstable state of the flow suggested the possibility of controlling the tidal current and tidal exchange in the channel-basin system and this was confirmed experimentally. Under fixed tidal conditions and with fixed basin dimensions, the tidal residual circulation was controlled to form two strong clockwise and anticlockwise circulations or a single circulation by changing the shape of the bay entrance.  相似文献

The tidal residual circulation in a bay was investigated by means of a hydraulic model experiment. In addition to the experiment in the previous paper, some other experiments were carried out to study the effect of external parameters to the tidal residual flow. The ratio of the kinetic energy of tidal residual flows to that of tidal currents in the bay depends on the Reynolds number. With the training wall at the mouth, the vorticity transfer from the tidal current to the tidal residual flow sharply decreases. As a result the remarkable tidal residual circulation in the bay does not occur.  相似文献

Tidal exchange through a narrow entrance channel was studied experimentally with the use of a simplified hydraulic model. The inflowing water mass, visualized with dye solution, exhibits the shape of a starting plume with a starting vortex pair at its head. Because of their periodical formation by the tide, these are called the tidal plume and tidal vortex pair. The axis of the tidal plume deflects and undulates with a period 2 to 9 times that of the tide. Together with this undulation, the vortex pair becomes asymmetric. A circulating flow is formed in the bay which affects the shape of the inflowing and outflowing water masses. A part of the inflowing water mass flows out during the subsequent ebb, and this outflowing portion can be divided into two parts. One is the water remaining in the entrance channel at high water which flows out during the first half of the subsequent ebb and the other is the water flowing round the bay in the circulating flow during flood that flows out during the latter half of the subsequent ebb. Both contribute to the exchange ratio, but we can estimate an upper limit for the exchange ratio by neglecting the latter outflow. This neglected portion is considered in the concept of the age composition of outflowing water. The age composition of the bay water shows the existence of intermittent effluence superposed on a trend in the age composition that is similar to that of the well-mixed case. From the analysis of a model consisting of a number of mixing tanks connected in series with a recycle flow, it is concluded that this intermittent effluence occurs in the case of weak mixing due to the effect of circulating flow in the bay but is negligible in the case of strong mixing.  相似文献

Two new types of mechanism for the generation of tidal residual flow are revealed with the use of a hydraulic model experiment. A remarkable anticlockwise tidal residual circulation is formed in a model bay due to the presence of a tidal current, the Coriolis force and a horizontal boundary. A similar circulation is also formed due to the presence of a bottom slope, a horizontal boundary and a tidal current which flows normal to the inclination of the bottom slope. The residual circulation in the Sea of Iyo in the Seto Inland Sea is considered to be due to a combination of the effects of the Coriolis force, a bottom slope, a horizontal boundary and the tidal current. We classified some of the generation mechanisms of tidal residual flow which have been described to date into seven types on the basis of vorticity considerations.  相似文献

The tidal residual circulation in a bay was experimentally investigated with use of a hydraulic model. The model basin is a square bay of 5 m sides with a one-sided mouth of 1 m wide. The depth of the basin is 0.1 m. The tide of a six-minute period was provided by a tide generator of plunger type through the mouth. Tidal currents in the bay always flow in one direction though its strengths change according to the tidal phase, that is, a strong tidal residual circulation occurs in the bay. A similar flow pattern was observed to occur in a field with a horizontal boundary geometrically similar to the present model. The vorticity transfer from tidal current to residual flow is balanced with the vorticity advection of residual flow and the dissipation due to the viscosity.  相似文献

胶州湾潮汐通道地貌体系   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
胶州湾属基岩海湾型潮汐通道,湾口内、外发育较为典型的涨、落潮流三角洲,地貌体系较为完整。总的说来,胶州湾涨潮流占优势,但涨、落潮优势流路平面分异明显:落潮流三角洲中央以落潮优势流为主,两侧涨潮流占优势;涨潮流三角洲中部以涨潮优势流为主,两侧落潮流占优势,涨、落潮优势流在内、外汊道口之间发生交叉。由于水流的非正向入射,潮汐通道地貌体系不对称,潮流三角洲在湾内东侧发育、在湾外东北侧发育。  相似文献

在胶州湾湾口、西侧、中心、东侧、北侧湾顶五个区域布设测站,利用2018年冬季至2020年秋季潮位、海流等监测数据,基于最小二乘法进行调和分析计算,并结合垂线平均流速流向、可能最大流速、水质点可能最大运移距离等计算模型,研究分析了胶州湾海流特征。结果表明,各区域潮流类型系数均小于0.5,M2分潮椭圆率绝对值均不超过0.1,接近于0,故胶州湾潮流性质为正规半日潮流,潮流运动形式以往复型为主。湾口区域余流、可能最大流速、水质点可能最大运移位移均最大。不同季节余流流速和流向的差异没有明显的规律性,除湾区西侧测站外,其余位置不同季节余流流向整体上有固定朝向:湾口处东偏北、中心站西偏北、东侧站南偏东、北侧湾顶站东偏北。靠近岸边的湾口、东侧和北侧湾顶站余流流向与邻近海岸垂直。在垂直方向上,各测站可能最大流速和水质点可能最大运移距离由表层至底层整体上呈减小趋势,流向基本一致。  相似文献

For a vertical two-dimensional field with a sill at a bay entrance, the tidal exchange mechanism is discussed.The schematic model is proposed as follows. The tidal trapping effect which is detected at the entrance section,i. e., the material transport due to the phase difference between the tidal periodic constituent of material concentration and tidal current at the entrance section, results because the oscillatory tidal flow at the sill entrance induces a gravitational flow along the sill slope inside the entrance. Accordingly, the tidal trapping effect depends largely upon the difference in water density between the bay and open sea and the density stratification in the bay.This model is supported by the observations at Kabira Cove (Okinawa Pref.) and Lake Hamana (Shizuoka Pref.) in 1976 through 1984. In addition, based on this model, in the case of Lake Hamana, the activity of the tidal exchange is inferred to change seasonally.  相似文献

The principal character of the tidal exchange process is neither diffusion nor advection, but a third category of transport, “Massenaustausch”, which appears in the space/time averaged transport. The exchange process can be divided into four fluxes: the flux of standing eddies, the flux of tidal exchange, the flux of tidal eddies and the flux of local eddies. The results of observations at the entrance channel of Kumihama-Bay show a typical example of transport dominated by tidal exchange. The tidal exchange ratio defined by Parkeret al. (1972) applies to the process of exchange between the outflowing watermass and the surrounding watermass outside of the bay mouth, but this should also be considered as being coupled with the ratio for the process of exchange between the inflowing watermass and the surrounding watermass inside of the bay mouth. These two exchange ratios can be combined into a single exchange ratio which describes the exchange process between the outer watermass and the bay water.  相似文献

The strong tidal current (tidal jet) in straits generates tidal vortices with a scale of several kilometers. The role of the vortices in material transport was investigated in the Neko Seto Sea, located in the western part of the Seto Inland Sea of Japan. A clockwise vortex with a diameter of about 0.8 km was observed in Nigata Bay (lying between two straits, the Neko Seto Strait and the Meneko Seto Strait). It was concluded that the clockwise vortex was the tidal vortex which was generated by the tidal jet in the Meneko Seto Strait. The vortex moved into the bay with the tide, but tended to stay on the sand bank in the bay. It was confirmed by current measurement with an ADCP and turbidity measurement that the secondary convergent flow was generated in the bottom layer of the vortex. This secondary flow seemed to contribute to the formation of the sand bank. It was suggested that tidal vortices may play an important role in the sediment transport and formation of topography in and around straits.  相似文献

The tidal residual current is produced by a non-linear effect caused by flow separation of the tidal current due to a complicated coastline. This paper shows that the similar non-linear effect is produced also by the coastal boundary layer with a theoretical model having a simple coastline. It is found that the shear of the tidal oscillatory current produces the non-linear effect and its longitudinal gradient generates the tidal residual current flowing from the bay head to the bay mouth inside the boundary layer or shear region. The velocity of the residual current is proportional to the square of tidal current amplitude. Consideration of the generating mechanism suggests that the tidal residual current is generated by the change in depth of the bay.  相似文献

利用已经过验证的高分辨率三维海洋动力模型FVCOM,根据1984—2014年内伶仃洋的围填海变化情况,结合情景模拟案例,研究分析围填海对伶仃洋水流动力的影响,探究截流式和顺流式围填海对伶仃洋不同季节的水平余流场、垂向环流结构以及潮汐变化过程的影响。研究结果表明,围填海对伶仃洋的余流流向没有明显影响,但对余流速有较大的影响。在水平方向上,截流式围填海使得周边海域的余流速明显增大,增幅在0.02~0.25 m/s不等,其中口门区域受到的影响最大;相较于底层流场,表层流场受围填海的影响相对更大,围填海以南的较远海域在表层出现一条强度逐渐减弱的流速减小带,减幅在0.02~0.15 m/s不等,且影响范围与流场的分布密切相关,在夏季向南延伸,在冬季向西南延伸。顺流式围填海的影响则主要分布在伶仃洋两侧沿岸,并且不同季节的影响特点有一定区别,在夏季使得内伶仃洋东岸海域流速增大,但在冬季使其流速减小,变化幅度均在0.02 m/s以上。在垂直方向上,围填海使口门区域余流的纵向流速梯度增加,并且改变了伶仃洋余流的垂向分布情况,总体表现为远离围填海的海域表、底层余流的流速减小,中上层余流的流速增大;与此同时,围填海大幅度改变了周边海域的横向流速,并且在伶仃水道、矾石水道等区域产生了新的横向环流。围填海使得河口至围填海的余水位明显上升,使得伶仃洋海域的余水位下降,余水位梯度的增大是围填海周边余流速增大的主要原因。另外,围填海影响了伶仃洋的潮汐变化过程。在大潮期间,围填海改变了伶仃洋海域涨落潮时的潮流流速,使得周边海域落急流速增加,较远海域落急流速减小,而涨急流速都减小;同时,围填海使得海域涨落潮时的潮位受到一定影响。围填海最终使得伶仃洋的潮汐相位提前了20~35 min。  相似文献

A fundamental mechanism of generation of the tidal residual flow, the steady or quasi-steady flow induced in the tidal current system, is studied by numerical methods. The model basin is a very simple one, a rectangular basin of 5m×10m of constant depth and with a cape of 4 m length jutting out at a right angle from the center of the longer side wall. This basin has the same topography as that studied byYanagi (1976) by means of the hydraulic model experiments.The steady, circular, horizontal current is found to be induced through the following processes. Horizontal friction at the coast makes the vorticity of vertical component in the oscillating flow. Self-interaction of this flow causes the vorticity transfer to the steady flow in frequency domain. This vorticity transfer is confined in the narrow coastal boundary layer. The steady flow advects the transferred vorticity and makes itself develop fully wide over the bay. In other words, there are two kinds of cascade-up, one with regard to time scale and the other with regard to horizontal space scale.When the tidal range, the tidal period and the horizontal eddy viscosity change under the condition that the model geometry is fixed, the nondimensional parameter which controlls the steady flow is found to be the Reynolds number of the oscillating flow.  相似文献

We have investigated the water mass distribution and circulation in Tachibana Bay, which is located in the junction area between Ari-ake Sound and Amakusa-Nada in western Kyushu, Japan. This was done to clarify the mechanism by which ghost shrimp larvae, originating from a sandflat of Amakusa-Shimoshima Island, are transported. Temperature and salinity data repeatedly obtained over the area of Tachibana Bay show that relatively low salinity water lies over northern part of the bay, while high salinity water lies over southern part of the bay. The location of the low salinity water margin tends to depend on the amount of rainfall several days before the observation. A large amount of rainfall makes a clear boundary between low and high salinity waters. Current velocity data indicate an eastward mean flow just north of Tomioka, northern tip of Amakusa-Shimoshima Island, and a clockwise mean flow approaching the Tomioka Bay sandflat, which should be suitable for the on-shore transport of the ghost shrimp postlarvae. Current measurements with shipboard ADCP just west of Hayasaki Strait, at the entrance of Ari-ake Sound, show that a westward tidal residual current tends to incline to the north, with evidence of a density current in the northern part of the western Hayasaki Strait.  相似文献
