Short Description of Functionality

The two-dimensional finite difference numerical model TRIM-2D can be used to simulate flow and transport processes in different free-surface flow problems. The following list of physical processes are taken into account by TRIM-2D:

  • shallow water equations
  • local acceleration (inertia)
  • advective acceleration
  • Coriolis acceleration
  • barotropic pressure gradient
  • baroclinic pressure gradient (depth integrated)
  • turbulent diffusion and dispersion
  • bottom friction
  • wind friction
  • time-varying height of control-structures (weirs)
  • advection-diffusion equation
  • local rate of change of concentration
  • advctive rate of change of concentration
  • turbulent diffusion and dispersion
  • settling velocity depends on turbulence intensity
  • Exchange of suspended sediments between the bottom layer and the water column
  • resuspension of deposited suspended sediments above a critical bottom shear stress (critical shear stress for resuspension)
  • deposition of suspended sediments below a critical bottom shear stress (critical shear stress for deposition)
  • bed load transport of sediments
  • bed load transport rate is given by the transport capacity of the flow (vanRIJN, BAGNOLD)
  • morphodynamic evolution of the bottom
  • net erosion/deposition due to bed load transport
  • net erosion/deposition due to suspended load transport

Turbulent diffusion as well as dispersion is parameterized using constant coefficients.

With the aid of the numerical model TRIM-2D the following physical quantities can be calculated:

  • free surface elevation
  • depth-averaged current velocity
  • depth-averaged salinity
  • depth-averaged suspended sediment concentration
  • deposited suspended sediment mass
  • bed load transport rate
  • deposited bed load material mass
  • bottom shear stress
  • wind shear stress
  • depth erosion
  • time varying depth of the bottom

A comprehensive description of TRIM-2D is available in the form of a Standard Validation Document (in German only).
