Hi everyone,

I need the aid of the experts.

I´m simulating a water tank as a wave generator.
I have calculated the wave amplitude at different planes (0.5m, 1.5m, 2.75m from the entrance) and:

1. It´s lower than it should (it should be 1,65m high)

2. It´s lower as the plane is far away from the entrance

COuld anyone advise me, please??? Could it be the mesh, the advection scheme, the turbulence????

Thanks in advance
