Investigation of Different Oriented 2D Straight Breakwater Under Dynamic Conditions

Abstract

In this study, flow behavior behind a breakwater was investigated for plane-based model. In the examination, straight models at different position angles were used for the breakwater. Dynamic inlet flow was used, and the wave model has been applied in commonly used two-row amplitude. The focus is on the area between the breakwater and the coastline, which is important for the use of breakwaters. The usage of Θ=+80 position angle in placement of straight breakwater gives the most suitable response. The results were discussed in detail.
