When designing ports, one important task is to predict sinoimeri port areas and approach channels sandy or pebbly silt. On the basis of this forecast are determined by the methods of protection from sinoimeri, as well as the frequency and volume of maintenance dredging works.
Out at sea the river flow becomes turbulent inertial jet. Friction on the bottom and the interaction with sea water leads to an overall reduction of jet velocity and its spreading. An important regularity is also spreading muddy river flow on the surface of the denser seawater. This creates conditions for rapid deposition of large fractions of the sediment on the bottom. The bulk of the sediment particles larger than 5 mm is deposited on the surface of the river bar and further transported along the shore wave energy currents. Outside of the bar shall be made only fine-grained material. The particle size of sediment deposited on the bottom outside of the bar decreases sharply with depth. Thus, sinoimeri of harbors and access channels is mainly suspended river sediments.
To calculate the distribution of the river flow, in the coastal zone in the presence of long chore currents developed a special method that implements the theory of turbulent planar jet in a drifting thread. The solid portion of the jet flow that enters the waters of the port or channel as a result of increasing depth and, consequently, reduce turbidity settles, causing shoaling waters.
The example of calculation of sinoimeri berth 1a in the port of Tuapse by solid flow of Tuapse river.
