摘要: The combined release of artificial reefs in different quantities and arrangements leads to different flow field effects. This study designs a small trapezoidal artificial reef. To optimize the quantity and layout of these reefs, trapezoidal reefs in three different layouts were selected for analysis at five different velocity gradients (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 m/s). The effects of disposal spacing and layout on the flow field effect of trapezoidal artificial reefs at different flow velocities were simulated using Ansys Fluent. According to the findings: after simulation, flow velocity could indirectly reflect the distribution of upwelling and back eddy, the scale and strength of upwelling increased as flow velocity increased, and the back eddy showed no obvious variation with flow velocity. In transverse combination mode, both the scale and strength of the upwelling and back eddy were maximized when the reef spacing was 1.0 L; in longitudinal combination mode, upwelling and back eddy reached maximum scale and strength when the disposal spacing of the reefs was 1.5 L of a single reef. In 2020, flow mapping and fishery surveys were carried out in the engineering pilot area. The results showed that the number and species of fish populations with 1.5 L spacing in the vertical combination method were significantly higher than those in other forms, and the structure of the fish reef was stable without any flipping or sliding phenomenon. This study can provide a theoretical reference for the design and the actual deployment of artificial reefs to improve the ecological restoration of the water.
