Thermal Structure of Cooling Ponds
The vertical stratification of cooling ponds is considered in a quasi-steady framework. Criteria based upon a nondimensional pond number are derived categorizing cooling ponds into the well-stratified deep pond type and into the partially-mixed or vertically-mixed shallow pond types. The well-stratified pond is characterized by an approximately uniform thin surface layer and two layer stratified flow theory is used to derive an equation for the layer thickness. An empirical expression describes the degree of vertical stratification in shallow ponds as a function of pond number. Comparisons with field and laboratory data are given.
