Modelling Study of the Influence of Wave Farm to Nearshore Wave Climate and Current

摘要

This paper studied the changes of wave height and wave driven current in Zhangjiabu sea, which was caused by the installation of wave farm, with Delft3D model. First, the changes of wave height in Zhangjiabu were computed in condition of different absorption rate. Then, the wave induced current near Jinghaijiao cape was calculated, where the change of wave height is largest. Last, 12 points in depth of 3m are used to study the changes of wave induced current velocity. The result show that the wave height and wave driven current will decrease after the wave farm installed.
