Subgrid Turbulence Model

In CMS-Flow eddy viscosity is calculated as the sum of a base value , the current-related eddy viscosity and the wave-related eddy viscosity


  (1)

Base Value Eddy Viscosity

The base value for the eddy viscosity is approximately equal to the kinematic eddy viscosity can be changed using the advanced card

     EDDY_VISCOSITY_CONSTANT           1.0e-6    ![m^2/sec], kinematic viscosity, ~1.0e-6

There are three options for calculating the current-related eddy viscosity.

Wave-Related Eddy Viscosity Component

The wave component of the eddy viscosity is calculated as


  (2)

where is an empirical coefficient with a default value of 0.5 but may vary between 0.25 and 1.0. is the significant wave height and is bottom orbital velocity based on the significant wave height. may be changed using the advanced card

     EDDY_VISCOSITY_WAVE               0.5       ![-], wave coefficient

Outside of the surf zone the bottom orbital velocity is calculated as


  (2)

where is the significant wave height, is the peak wave period, is the wave number. Inside the surf zone, the turbulence due to wave breaking is considered by increasing the bottom orbital velocity as


  (3)

Current-Related Eddy Viscosity Component

There are three options for the current-related eddy viscosity: FALCONER, PARABOLIC, and SUBGRID. The default turbulence model is the subgrid model, but may be changed with the advanced card

     TURBULENCE_MODEL                  SUBGRID   !FALCONER | PARABOLIC | SUBGRID

Falconer Equation

The Falconer (1980) equation is the method is the default method used in the previous version of CMS, known as M2D. The first is the Falconer (1980) equation given by


  (4)

Parabolic Model

The second option is the parabolic model given by


  (5)

where is approximately equal to and may be changed using the advanced card

     EDDY_VISCOSITY_BOTTOM             0.0667     ![-], bottom shear coefficient

Subgrid Turbulence Model

The third option for calculating is the subgrid turbulence model given by


  (6)
