The Ocean Environment
Non Linear Free-surface Condition
(X,Y,Z): Earth Fixed Coordinate System X: Fixed Eulerian Vector v: Flow Velocity Vector At X
- Free Surface Elevation
Assume ideal fluid (No shear stresses) and irrotational flow:
Let:
Where [math]\displaystyle{ \Phi(X,t) is the velocity potential assumed sufficiently continuously differentiable. Potential flow model of surface wave propagation and wave-body interactions very accurate. Few important exceptions will be noted. Conservation of mass: \lt center\gt \lt math\gt \Delta \dot V = 0 }[/math]
