Tanana River Site ===================== .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :hidden: sedimentation.rst velocity.rst The Tanana River, situated in central Alaska, is being evaluated as a potential site for harnessing current energy. The nearby town of Nenana, nestled on the inner bank of a river bend, could significantly benefit from local energy generation as opposed to relying on diesel generators. A current energy capture device has undergone testing on-site, and ongoing data collection pertaining to local fish populations and benthic characteristics is expected to provide a robust understanding of the long-term impact of device deployment on the ecosystem. A model was created on an unstructured grid using DFlow-FM to simulate various flow return periods with device arrays. The flow scenarios are examined both under baseline conditions (no devices present) and with devices deployed. **Accessing Demonstration Files** To access the demonstration files relevant to this analysis, please refer to the :ref:`tutorial-files-access` section. This demonstration utilizes the :file:`tanana_river` and :file:`style_files` folders as detailed in :ref:`DEMO_files`. A comprehensive list of files provided is available below in :ref:`tanana_river_files`. **Preparing Demonstration Files** The demonstration files should be prepared as detailed in :ref:`prepare_tutorial_files`. Please follow the instructions in the :ref:`prepare_tutorial_files` section before proceeding with the Tanana River demonstration. **QuickMapServices** Results in this tutorial will utilize the QuickMapServices plugin in QGIS. To install this plugin, see :ref:`quick_map_services` to setup in your QGIS instance. **List of Files** .. _tanana_river_files: .. code-block:: none :caption: Tanana River Demo Files DEMO └───tanana_river │ shear_and_velocity_modules_with_receptors.default │ shear_and_velocity_modules_without_receptors.default │ shear_stress_module_with_receptors.default │ shear_stress_module_without_receptors.default │ velocity_with_receptors.default │ velocity_without_receptors.default │ ├───mec_not_present │ 0_tanana_100_map.nc │ 0_tanana_10_map.nc │ 0_tanana_1_map.nc │ 0_tanana_25_map.nc │ 0_tanana_50_map.nc │ 0_tanana_5_map.nc │ ├───mec_present │ 9_tanana_100_map.nc │ 9_tanana_10_map.nc │ 9_tanana_1_map.nc │ 9_tanana_25_map.nc │ 9_tanana_50_map.nc │ 9_tanana_5_map.nc │ └───receptor grain_size_receptor.csv velocity_receptor.csv
