Model studies of the Vistula River
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The objective of the model studies was developing the concept of obtaining, at this section of the Vistula, a depth of at least 2 m with medium-low water (SN) and minimum class IV of navigability.
For the preparation of data, it is necessary to develop:
- physical and numerical modeling of selected water stages – study of erosion processes;
- numerical modeling of the entire lower section of the Vistula River for the proposed variants of the Lower Vistula cascade.
SCOPE OF SERVICES:
- Development of concepts providing: minimum class IV navigability, flood protection, provision of winter flood protection, provision of safety of the Wloclawek barrage.
- Performance of (physical and numerical) model tests of the operation of barrages with high and low damming;
- Development of assumptions for the construction of barrages on the Lower Vistula;
- Development of concept of the recommended solution;
- Performing technical, financial, environmental and multi-criteria analysis;
- Information materials;
- Photographic documentation;
- Conference summarizing the project implementation.
Project
Analysis of the adaptation of the Vistula River on the section from Włocławek to the the Gulf of Gdańsk to the large and small cascade – model studies
Investor
The State Water Holding Polish Waters - Regional Water Management Authority in Gdańsk
Location
To carry out research on a physical model of a high-grade stage, a section of the Vistula river was selected in km 704.38 - 711.38 with the location of the barrage in Siarzewo at km 706.38. A section of the Vistula river at km 854 - 861 (Nowe) was selected for research on the physical model of the low-fall grade. As a model of the bypass channel, the route running along the right bank of the river was selected - for the location of the Siarzewo barrage.
