简要描述了用于计算环境水流浅水中波浪条件的数值模型 SWAN(近岸模拟波浪)。该模型基于动作平衡方程的全谱表示,并明确建模了所有物理过程。对光谱演化没有任何先验的限制。这使得该模型成为第三代模型。在 Holthuijsen 等人中。 (1993) 和 Ris 等人。 (1994) 的传播、产生和耗散测试用例已在没有电流的情况下进行了展示。现在已添加当前效果,并在此处显示学术案例。该模型还应用于相当学术性的浅湖案例(澳大利亚乔治湖)和复杂而现实的潮间带水流案例(荷兰弗里斯切泽加特)。将结果与观察结果进行比较。提出了在曲线网格上制定模型以适应与水动力循环模型的联系的新发展,并展示了第一次测试。简介 在过去的十年中,海岸工程中用于计算近岸条件下波浪的传统波浪线模型正在被根据规则网格上的光谱能量平衡(或存在环境电流时的作用平衡)来制定波浪演化的模型所取代。在此类模型的第三代版本中,波谱可以不受任何先验限制地演化,并且所有相关的物理过程都以离散谱公式明确表示。这里描述了包含环境电流的这种波模型(SWAN 模型)。从概念上讲,它是深水第三代波浪模型的延伸,但所涉及的物理过程和数值技术更加复杂。 SWAN波浪模型被认为是计算上可行的第三代谱波模型,适用于咨询环境中具有环境电流的浅水(包括冲浪区)中的波浪,在台式计算机上返回时间小于30分钟。代尔夫特理工大学土木工程系,P.O.

The numerical model SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) for the computation of wave conditions in shallow water with ambient currents is briefly described. The model is based on a fully spectral representation of the action balance equation with all physical processes modelled explicitly. No a priori limitations are imposed on the spectral evolution. This makes the model a third-generation model. In Holthuijsen et al. (1993) and Ris et al. (1994) test cases for propagation, generation and dissipation have been shown without currents. Current effects have now been added and academic cases are shown here. The model is also applied in a fairly academic case of a shallow lake (Lake George, Australia) and in a complex, realistic case of an inter-tidal area with currents (Friesche Zeegat, the Netherlands). The results are compared with observations. A new development to formulate the model on a curvi-linear grid to accommodate linkage to hydro-dynamic circulation models is presented and a first test is shown. INTRODUCTION Over the last decade, the traditional wave ray models in coastal engineering to compute waves in nearshore conditions are being replaced by models that formulate the wave evolution in terms of a spectral energy balance on a regular grid (or the action balance in the presence of ambient currents). In third-generation versions of such models the wave spectrum is allowed to evolve free of any a priori limitations and all relevant physical processes are represented explicitly in a discrete spectral formulation. Such a wave model (the SWAN model), with the inclusion of ambient currents is described here. Conceptually it is an extension of deep water thirdgeneration wave models but the physical processes and the numerical techniques involved are more complicated. The SWAN wave model has been conceived to be a computationally feasible third-generation spectral wave model for waves in shallow water (including the surf zone) with ambient currents in a consulting environment with return times of less than 30 min on a desk top computer.

"SWAN" WAVE MODEL 669 THE SWAN WAVE MODEL The SWAN wave model (Ris et al., 1994) is a fully discrete spectral model based on the action balance equation which implicitly takes into account the interaction between waves and currents through radiation stresses (e.g., Phillips, 1977): |NW)+VIy.[ciyNW)]4KNW)]4[c,NM]=M ot do do o The first term in the left-hand side is the rate of change of action density in time, the second term is the rectilinear propagation of action in geographical x-,yspace. The third term describes the shifting of the relative frequency due to currents and time-varying depths with propagation velocity c„ in cr-space. The fourth term represents the propagation in 0-space (depthand current-induced refraction) with propagation velocity ce. The term S(<x,6) at the right hand side of the action balance equation is the source term representing the growth by wind, the wave-wave interactions and the decay by bottom friction, whitecapping and depth-induced wave breaking. To reduce computer time, we remove time from the action balance equation (i.e., d/dt = 0). This is acceptable for most coastal conditions since the residence time of the waves is usually far less than the time scale of variations of the wave boundary conditions, the ambient current, wind or the tide. For cases in which the time scale of these variations becomes important, i.e., variable incoming waves at the boundary, or variable winds or currents, a quasi-stationary approach can be taken by repeating the computations for predefined time intervals. The formulations for the generation, the dissipation and the quadruplet wavewave interactions are taken from the WAM model (WAM Cycle 3, WAMDI group, 1988 and optionally WAM Cycle 4, Komen et al., 1994 as presently operational at the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting). For the present study the formulations from WAM Cycle 3 are used. These are supplemented with a spectral version of the dissipation model for depth-induced breaking of Battjes and Janssen (1978) (with the maximum wave height to depth ratio from Nelson, 1987) and a recently formulated discrete interaction approximation for the triad wave-wave interactions (Eldeberky and Battjes, 1995). Fully implicit numerical schemes are used in the SWAN model for propagation in both geographic space and spectral space (an iterative, forward-marching, foursweep technique, Ris et al., 1994). This scheme is unconditionally stable in contrast with the explicit schemes of conventional spectral wave models which are only conditionally stable and which require therefore very small time steps in shallow water (typically 10 s for 100 m resolution in water depth of 10 m where in the SWAN model the time increment may be as large as 15 min). The formulation is basically in terms of finite differences on a regular, rectangular grid. This is inconvenient in regions with highly variable scales such as tidal inlets, tidal flats and 670 COASTAL ENGINEERING 1996 estuaries. Nesting of grids with decreasing resolution is the conventional approach in such cases but it requires extra computations. A variable resolution grid would avoid such extra computations, in particular if the grid would conform to the topography of the region. It would also accommodate the linkage with hydrodynamic circulation models which are often formulated on such grids. Such a curvilinear approach is implemented in the SWAN model by considering in the numerical scheme of each spatial grid point, two separate, non-equidistant finite up-wind differences in each of two orthogonal directions. For the x -direction this is for grid point i ,j (the grid points are ordered in x , y-space):
