Abstract

This study numerically investigates the characteristics of the velocity field including the average flow velocity, longshore current and turbulent kinetic energy acting as the main external forces of the salient formed behind the permeable submerged breakwaters. Shoreline response is also predicted by the longshore-induced flux. In this paper, a three-dimensional numerical wave tank based on the OLAFOAM, CFD open source code, is utilized to simulate the velocity field around permeable submerged breakwaters under the formation condition of salient. The characteristics of the velocity field around permeable submerged breakwaters with respect to the gap width between breakwaters and the installing position away from the shoreline under a range of regular waves for different wave height are evaluated. The numerical results revealed that as the gap width between breakwaters increases, the longshore currents become stronger. Furthermore, as the gap width becomes narrower, the point where flow converges moves from the center of the breakwater to the head part. As a result, it is possible to understand the formation of the salient formed behind the submerged breakwaters. In addition, it was found that the longshore currents caused by the gap width between breakwaters and the installation position away from the shoreline are closely related to the turbulent kinetic energy.

본 연구는 투과성잠제 배후에서 형성되는 설상사주의 주요외력으로 작용하는 평균유속, 연안류 및 난류운동에너지 등을 포함한 유속장의 특성을 수치적으로 검토하였다. 또한, 연안류에 의한 수송유량으로부터 해안선의 지형변동도 예측하였다. 수치해석에는 오픈소스 CFD 코드인 OLAFOAM에 기초한 3차원수치파동수조에 설상사주의 형성조건 하에 있는 투과성잠제를 설치하여 수치실험을 수행하였다. 수치실험에서는 규칙파의 조건 하에서 잠제의 개구폭 및 설치위치에 따른 잠제 주변에서 유속변동의 특성을 평가하였다. 수치실험 결과로부터 잠제의 개구폭이 넓을수록 강한 연안류가 형성됨과 동시에 수송유량이 증가하고, 개구폭이 좁을수록 연안류가 수렴되는 지점이 제간부에서 제두부로 이동함을 확인하였으며, 이로부터 잠제 배후에 형성되는 설상사주의 형성원인을 파악할 수 있었다. 또한, 잠제 사이의 개구폭 및 잠제와 해안선 사이의 거리에 따라 연안류는 해안선에서 난류운동에너지의 변화와 밀접한 관계를 가지는 것을 알 수 있었다.
