Optimum Draft and Phasing of Double-Flap Wavemaker

Double-Flap 조파기의 설계 및 조파판의 최적 위상관계

A method to determine the optimum drafts of waveboards of single and double-flap wavemaker is presented by using a linearized first-order wave theory and a linear regression method. A linear regression is verified to be quite simpler than the local disturbance consideration or regular-wave forming distance. It is pointed out that lower hinge should be deep enough to keep the upper flap vertical for a long wave length.
