Analysis of Different Methods for Wave Generation and Absorption in a CFD-Based Numerical Wave Tank
In this paper, the performance of different wave generation and absorption methods in computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based numerical wave tanks (NWTs) is analyzed.The open-source CFD code REEF3D is used, which solves the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations to simulate two-phase flow problems.The water surface is computed with
