Abstract AR
يقع ميناء جدة الإسلامي في الساحل الشرقي للبحر الأحمر، و هو من أكبر موانئ المملكة العربية السعودية، تم تطبيق نموذج رياضي لتوقع حركة التيارات المدية و هو نموذج ثلاثي الأبعاد، و قد أظهرت المقارنة توافقا مقبولا بين نتائج النموذج الرياضي مع قياسات التيارات البحرية المقاسة، و من أهمية هذه الدراسة التأكد من تجدد المياه داخل ميناء جده الإسلامي.
Abstract EN
A two dimensional tidal depth averaged model was used to calculate the tidal currents in Jeddah Islamic Port which is the largest sea port in Saudi Arabia.
The water circulation in Jeddah Port exhibits strong ebb to flood variability, reversing from west to east movement during both neap and spring tide respectively.
Model results are compared with measured current meter data.
The comparison showed a reasonable agreement between the modeled and measured current velocities.
The renewal of the water within the port is important to ensure the quality of the sea water.
