摘要

Abstract

This paper introduces a numerical model for studying the evolution of a periodic wave train

shoaling

and breaking in surf zone. The model can solve the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations for a mean flow

and thek-ε equations for turbulence kinetic energyk and turbulence dissipation rate ε. To track a free surface

the volume of fluid (VOF) function

satisfying the advection equation was introduced. In the numerical treatment

third-order upwind difference scheme was applied to the convection terms of the RANS equations in order to reduce the effect of numerical viscosity. The shoaling and breaking processes of a periodic wave train on gently sloping beaches were modeled. The computed wave heights of a sloping beach and the distribution of breaking wave pressure on a vertical wall were compared with laboratory data.
