文摘

A numerical wave tank is developed by using the Stokes non linear higher order velocity profile. The numerical model is in good agreement with experimental data A sequential optimization procedure is performed to determine the best operating parameters set of a fixed OWC structure. The procedure showed that there is no interactivity between the OWC key parameters. Rational-polynomial functions are used to predict the OWC performance.
