Waves with VOF

February 20, 2000, 06:20

Hi everybody I am a new user of Fluent5 and I am trying to simulate the waves propagation on a beach with the VOF model. Has anyone worked with this kind of a problem before? The question I have is the following: Can you input at the inlet of the domain as an inlet condition, apart from the velocities at each time step,the water surface elevation at each time step and how?

The best way for time dependency of velocity is used the User Define Function. But I am not sure if for new user is available to start with VOF.

Best Regards Pa.St.
