Abstract

The Suez Canal consists of two reaches, which are almost independent. The Bitter Lakes is a barrier between the two reaches. A finite-element two-dimensional hydrodynamic model is used to investigate the effect of the Bitter Lakes on the flow characteristics in the canal. The basic finding of this study is that the existence of the Bitter Lakes improves navigational conditions in the canal. It is recommended that similar shallow, wide water bodies be constructed along the south reach of the canal.
