Abstract

Aiming at the breeding environment where the construction of marine pastures requires low wind and waves, a floating breakwater (FB) with a Savonius type (referred to as S type) runner with wave absorption and energy reduction function is studied for wave absorption and energy reduction in aquaculture sea areas. The wave-absorbing and energy-reducing performance of the floating breakwater is studied by the method of combining numerical simulation and experiment. Using Star-CCM+ numerical simulation software, based on linear wave theory and energy conservation law, using overlapping grid technology, calling DFBI model, second-order time discretization, a three-dimensional flow field model of the floating breakwater was established and numerically simulated. At the same time, a floating breakwater physical test system was developed for experimental verification, the transmission wave and the conversion power consumption of the S-shaped runner under different wave heights and different periods were measured, and the results Please carefully check the accuracy of names and affiliations. of numerical simulation and physical experiments were comprehensively evaluated. The research results show that the floating breakwater based on the S-shaped runner has the functions of reducing the wave height and reducing the wave energy, which have guiding significance for practical engineering.
