ABSTRACT
It is very important for ships navigation to layout the fairway in bridge area reasonably. The turbulent scope of pier, relating directly to traffic accident in bridge area, is an important index to take into account for bridge areas fairway layout. In the present paper, the turbulent scope of round-pier in straight channel and relative parameters, such as round-piers diameter, flows velocity and so on, were analyzed by theoretical considerations. It could be concluded that the maximum turbulent scope of round-pier in straight channel was mainly dominated by round-piers diameter and flows velocity in water surface. The larger the round-piers diameter and flows velocity in water surface are, the larger is the maximum turbulent scope of round-pier in straight channel. An empirical expression was presented to calculate the maximum turbulent scope of round-pier in straight channel.
