Title: Wave Hydrodynamics


1
Wave Hydrodynamics Chapters 5 and 6 in Komar,
P.D. Beach Processes and Sedimentation.
2
The inner shelf is a friction-dominated realm
where surface and bottom boundary layers overlap.

transport processes on the inner shelf.

Approximate distribution of ocean surface wave
energy illustrating the classification of surface
waves by wave band, primary disturbance force,
and primary restoring force.

Waves moved away from
the generating area and no longer influenced by
winds

SMALL AMPLITUDE/FIRST ORDER/AIRY WAVE THEORY
  • Fluid is homogenous and incompressible,
    therefore, the density is a constant.
  • Surface tension is neglected.
  • Coriolis effect is neglected.
  • Pressure at the free surface is uniform and
    constant.
  • Fluid is ideal (lacks viscosity).

7
SMALL AMPLITUDE/FIRST ORDER/AIRY WAVE THEORY
  • The wave does not interact with any other water
    motion.
  • The bed is a horizontal, fixed, impermeable
    boundary which implies that the vertical velocity
    at the bed is zero.
  • The wave amplitude is small and the wave form is
    invariant in time and space.
  • Waves are plane or low crested (two dimensional).

Can accept 1, 2, and 3
and relax assumptions 4-9
for most practical
solutions.

WAVE CELERITY, LENGTH, AND PERIOD
PHASE VELOCITY/WAVE CELERITY (C) speed at which
a waveform
moves.
Relating wavelength and H2O depth to celerity,
then
Since C L/T, then is

  • Longer waves travel faster than shorter waves.
  • Small increases in T are associated with large
    increases in L.
  • Long waves (swell) move fast and lose
    little energy.
  • Short wave moves slower and loses most
    energy
    before reaching a distant coast.

propagated shoreward from a depth d 200m to a
depth d 3 m. FIND C and L at d 200m and

WAVE ENERGY AND POWER
Kinetic Potential Total Energy of Wave
System Kinetic due to H2O particle
velocity Potential due to part of fluid mass
being above trough. (i.e. wave crest)
23
WAVE ENERGY FLUX(Wave Power)
Rate at which energy is transmitted in the
direction of progradation.

Summary of LINEAR
(AIRY) WAVE THEORYWAVE CHARACTERISTICS
25
Regions of validity for various wave theories.
26
HIGHER ORDER THEORIES
  • Better agreement between theoretical and observed
    wave behavior.
  • Useful in calculating mass transport.
  • HIGHER ORDER WAVES ARE
  • More peaked at the crest.
  • Flatter at the trough.
  • Distribution is skewed above SWL.

27
Comparison of second-order Stokes profile with
linear profile.
28
USEFULNESS OF HIGHER ORDER THEORIES
MASS TRANSPORT VELOCITY U(2)
The distance a particle is
displaced during one
wave period.
NB Mass transport in the direction of
propagation.
29
HIGHER ORDER WAVES
  • Stokes
  • Takes wave height to 2nd order (H ) and higher
  • Useful in higher energy environments

For deep H2O Eq. reduces to

by linear wave theory

NB. If (H/L) is small, use linear wave theory
equation.
