Abstract

The experiment of unsteady rip current generated at the successive ends of breaking wave crests of honeycomb pattern waves was conducted in a laboratory wave basin, and its time-varying evolution was observed by using ortho-rectified images. The present experiment utilized the generation of a quasi nodal line of the honeycomb-pattern waves formed by out-of-phase motion of two piston-type wavemakers arranged in the transverse direction, instead of the original honeycomb pattern waves which are generated when two wave trains propagate with slightly different wave directions. The velocities of rip current were measured by using the LSPIV (Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry) technique. As a result, the unsteady rip current was generated between successive ends of wave crests, and evolved with its shear fluctuations in this experiment. Also, the time series of LSPIV velocity of the unsteady rip current showd its short component due to waves and its long component due to wave-induced currents.

벌집구조 파에서 나타나는 연속된 쇄파 파봉선 끝단사이로 발달하는 이안류를 수리실험을 통해 재현하고 시간에 따라 발달하는 과정을 정사보정 영상을 통해 관찰하였다. 서로 다른 두 협각의 파랑 중첩에 의해 생성되는 벌집구조 파를 재현하는 대신에 조파장치를 횡방향 두 그룹으로 나누어 역 위상으로 구동시켜 규칙파를 조파하므로 유사 벌집구조 파형을 생성하여 실험을 수행하였다. 수리 실험에서 재현된 이안류의 유속을 계측하기 위해 LSPIV (Large Scale Particle Image Velocimetry) 기법을 이용하였다. 관측을 통해 노드영역을 따라 생성되는 이안류를 확인하였고, 시간에 따라 흐름이 전단 파동(shear fluctuation)을 포함하여 발달하는 비정상 이안류의 유속 분포를 제시하였다. 또한, LSPIV 기법으로 계측된 유속의 시계열을 통하여 파주기 및 상대적으로 긴 주기의 요동에 따른 유속 성분을 확인할 수 있었다.
