One of the most crucial environmental issues of our time is that of water, since man needs water in quantity and quality. This basic need and the increasing pollution have led to an interest in developing research in the field of pollutant transport. In this article, we focus on the hydrodynamic aspect of the numerical model. For this reason, we have realized the Navier-Stokes equations, which are necessary to predict the evolution of a single-phase flow within a given geometry. These equations are deduced from the fundamental principles of conservation of mass, momentum, and mass fraction of the pollutant. Also, the equations of the k-model are chosen to account for the turbulence phenomenon. These equations are solved by the finite volume method. Our flow is generally composed of two continuous phases: the first is liquid (water) and the second is gaseous (air).
