Simulation of the Flow of Water in the Persian Gulf using the MIKE 3D Model

The use of available energy in the sea is one of the most widely used methods in engineering. That's why the advanced world has comprehensive plans for energy from the seas and oceans. The hydrodynamic phenomena dominant in the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz and the Oman Sea in the last decade have been remarkable due to the strategic importance of the region, especially in the marginalized countries. The present study investigates the motion of water masses by the Mike 3D model in the Persian Gulf. For stability model, the salinity curve has been used in time for two consecutive years. The motion of the water mass under the influence of water flow during the 15-day and 1-year period was investigated in several geographical coordinates, the results were presented graphically and examined. The results show a single conclusion on the movement of water mass over a period of 15 days, in three different coordinates and one year, which is that the motion of the water mass has been clockwise according to reality, as well as the tendency toward the coast, which is also the model This route predicts well.
