Two-Dimensional Numerical Model of the Near-Field Flow for an Ocean Thermal Power Plant. Part III. Manual for the Computer Code NRFL02,

Abstract

This report is a user's manual for our computer code NRFL02 which has been developed to calculate the near-field stratified turbulent flow driven by the intakes and outflows of an ocean thermal power plant. The code uses a two-dimensional geometry and a four-parameter first-order turbulence closure model. Sophisticated numerical methods enable convergent and accurate solutions to be obtained rapidly and economically. A large and flexible printer output package provides for the display and interpretation of the results. (Author)
