Sažetak
In this paper a CFD (computational fluid mechanics) approach to the problem of hydroelectric power plants and flooding is presented. The applied method is mathematical modeling and computer simulation. The mathematical model is the open channel flow model, nonstationary, one-dimensional and extended with the floodplain compartment model. The computer simulation is based on the complex preprocessing of geodetic data of the river basin and numerical computation using state of the art numerical schemes. The developed computer program is applied on the case study, the problem of possible flooding in the river basin of Gacka and the town of Otocac. These flooding may be caused by stoppage of the work of the hydroelectric power plant Senj due to regular maintenance works, or errors in the manipulation with the objects in the hydro-energetic system of HE Senj. Also they can be caused by large flooding waves in the river Gacka in interaction with the work of HE Senj. Presented problem and results lead to the conclusion that the developed method is a complex and succesful tool for analysis and solution of flooding prevention.
