Abstract
"(Article in Chinese only) - Dredging engineering involved in port , waterway dredging engineering, artificial islands, submarine cable, pipeline, mining and other fields, the diversity of dredged soil determined that reclaimed dredging soil is commonly mixed soil[a], reclaimed soil can be generally used for reclamation epeirogenic project, but with the development of dredging industry diversification , more and more sand dredging reclamation involves the mud particle separation technologies, such as ocean mining, underwater take sand, etc..As the main ship hull form , cutter suction dredger is applied in most reclaimed sand engineering, and it is needed to using CFD software for simulation work in the process of sediment separation technology research , in order to determine the feasibility of sediment separation technology scheme.This paper will describe the application of CFD software in sediment separation technology research process as well as matters needing attention and research results in detail."
