OpenFOAM을 이용한 EOM 기반 2차원 수치 파 생성에 관한 파라메트릭 연구

초록

The consistency of the initially designed waves in the domain is essential for accurate calculation of the added resistance in waves through CFD. In particular, unwanted reflected waves at domain boundaries can cause incorrect numerical solutions due to the superposition with initially designed waves. Euler Overlay Method(EOM) is one of the methods for reducing wave reflections by adding an additional source term to momentum and phase conservation equations, respectively. In this study, we apply the Euler Overlay Method(EOM) to the open-source CFD library, OpenFOAM®, to simulate the accurate free-surface waves in the domain and the parametric study is performed for efficient implementation of Euler Overlay Method(EOM). Considering that the damping efficiency depends on the selection of the overlay parameter in the added source terms, the size of overlay zone and the wave steepness, the influences of these factors are tested through the wave elevation measured at constant time intervals in the 2D numerical wave tank. Through this process, guidelines for selection of optimal overlay parameter and overlay zone size that can be applied according to the scaling law are finally presented.
