Linking TVA's Norris and Melton Hill Reservoirs Water Quality -- CE-QUAL-W2 Models

Publication: Bridging the Gap: Meeting the World's Water and Environmental Resources Challenges

Abstract

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is enhancing water resources tools to examine water quality in the integrated river and power system. This paper describes the development and linkage of Norris and Melton Hill Reservoirs models using a two-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model, CE-QUAL-W2, linked with a one-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model, ADYN-RQUAL. The models were calibrated separately, then linked and calibrated as one model, using field data collected in 1997. This report documents a preliminary calibration for temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO). Overall, the model was reasonably calibrated.
