Abstract

Studies were made on a surface buoyant jet from a coastal power plant. The cooling water discharges into shallow waters of irregular bottom topography forming a partially enclosed embayment that connects to the open ocean. Near field mixing was found to be influenced by bottom bathymetry, lateral confinement and a large obstruction. Surface centerline temperature decay, bottom separation and the heat and mass distribution within the embayment were analyzed.
