Water depth is 1m and air height is 1m.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have tried with fine hexahedral cells in the range of <strong>100\/150 cells per wavelength and 20\/30 cells per waveheight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;The basic requirements are,&nbsp;<strong>deep water conditions<\/strong>, wave shouldn&rsquo;t get damped,&nbsp;<strong>first order airy theory<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>K-w SST<\/strong> \/<strong>K-e Standard<\/strong> model for turbulence.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;For wave generation, I tried by using <strong>Implicit VOF<\/strong> as well as <strong>Explicit VOF<\/strong> I have used <strong>open channel wave BC<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Implicit body force<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Sharp<\/strong>&nbsp;from interface modelling<strong>.

I also tried with SHM of inlet boundary using UDF. Pressure Outlet BC at the outlet and top air surface.

I have taken help from Ansys user manual and many other research papers to get waves that are not damping but I failed every time. it will be great help if someone can help me to resolve this issue.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you in advance,<\/p>\n<p>Best Regards<\/p>\n<p>Chakra<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-302788","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["25526","199"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.206.193.41"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["1121"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["302788"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","25526"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["5"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["303840"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["303840"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-08-29 11:24:20"]},"test":"chakrachandmy-unt-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/302788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/302788\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=302788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
