Description
Summary:A two-dimensional hydrodynamic mathematical model of the sea area near the Qitou sea area was established by using MIKE21 hydrodynamic module, and the tidal level, flow velocity and direction simulated by the hydrodynamic model were verified according to the measured data. Based on MIKE21 hydrodynamic model and particle tracking module, a mathematical model of oil spill diffusion centered on the sea area of Qitou was established, and the influence range of oil spill under six different working conditions and the time of oil spill reaching the main sensitive area near The sea area of Qitou were simulated. The analysis shows that tidal current and wind are the main factors affecting the diffusion process of oil spill in The Qitou sea. The calculation results show the influence area of oil spill 24 hours after the occurrence of the accident and the time when the oil spill reaches the main sensitive area in The sea area of Qitou, which has a certain guiding role in dealing with the offshore oil spill pollution and formulating the emergency treatment plan of oil spill accident in the sea area of Qitou.
