Evaluation of SIFOM-FVCOM system for high-fidelity simulation of small-scale coastal ocean flows
This paper evaluates the SIFOM-FVCOM system recently developed by the authors to simulate multiphysics coastal ocean flow phenomena, especially those at small scales.First, its formulation for buoyancy is examined with regard to solution accuracy and computational efficiency.Then, the system is used to track particles in circulations in the Jamaica Bay,demonstrating that large-scale patterns of trajectories of fluid particles are sensitive to small-scales flows in which they are released.Finally, a simulation is presented to illustrate its capability, which is beyond the reach of other existing models, to directly and simultaneously model large-scale storm surge within the Hudson River during the Hurricane Sandy as well as small-scale flow structures around bridge piers in the river.
