There are two ways in which CMS-Flow uses wave information. The first is with user specified datasets. In this approach, precomputed wave height, period and direction datasets are provided to CMS-Flow. The advantage of this approach is that any wave model can be used and that the waves do not have to be recomputed for multiple CMS-Flow runs. The disadvantage is that the currents are not included in the wave model calculation (one-way coupling). The second approach is to run CMS-Flow and CMS-Wave together or in Steering mode.
User Specified Datasets
If a choice is made not to use the steering process, the user must provide several datasets of information which has been mapped to the flow grid geometery.
- Radiation stress gradient
- Wave height
- Wave period
- Wave direction
- Wave dissipation
