A Numerical Model of the Wave-Induced Currents in the Turbulent Coastal Zone
A numerical model is developed, validated and applied to the turbulent coastal currents. The currents are driven by the sea surface slope and the radiation stresses of water waves. They are resisted by friction due to turbulent eddies and sea bottom. The k-ε model is used to model the turbulent stresses. Five simultaneous nonlinear partial differential equations govern the depth-averaged dynamics in the surf zone. An implicit finite-difference scheme is used to obtain an accurate numerical solution of the resulting initial-boundary value problem. It is tested against the case of straight coast with uniform bottom slope and a protective jetty. To investigate the actual wave-induced currents, the model is applied to simulate the currents for three real case studies. Results show that the model could be used to compute currents caused by the constructing coastal protection measures and could predict the locations of accretion and scouring.
