Hi Niels,

Thanks for an excellent waves2Foam toolbox. I have been trying to understand the waveflume tutorial so that I can implement it in my case on Oscillating water column. In this regard my case is best implementable on stokesSecond order theory. Unfortunately, I seem not to be getting the idea of changing it to fit my case as I am getting this message when I run the edited waveflume tutorial.


"Reading g

Reading waveProperties


Constructing: stokesFirstProperties (Used by another wave theory)
Constructing: stokesSecondProperties

Constructing: potentialCurrentProperties

End"

I am not quite sure if this is correct or there is a problem and the case is still running on the stokesFirstProperties.
Kind regards,

larry

Hi, sorry for the late response. I found out that my results were agreeable when I change the wave theory in the waveFlume tutorial however, you must know the limits or the validity of each wave theory otherwise you will be in real problems. Perhaps, you can look at this website http://www.calqlata.com/productpages/00020-help.html or graph by T. Sarpkaya (book) for more insights.
Thanks

Larry K.
