Short Description of Functionality

The mathematical model WARM (Wave Ray Model) is a wave model which is based on the transport equation for the two-dimensional energy density spectrum. The equation is solved in the frequency directional domain. The model is able to take into account several effects related to the influence of bathymetry, current velocity and water level, namely

  • refraction by bottom friction and current variations,
  • shoaling,
  • wave current interaction (wave blocking), as well as
  • non-linear dissipation of wave energy.

WARM was developed on behalf of Bundesanstalt für Wasserbau, Außenstelle Küste by GKSS Research Center, Geesthacht.

Input-Files

  1. general input data (filetype warm.dat)
  2. model topography:
  3. (optional) computational results (time series) for hydrodynamics (files of type dirz.bin.r, dirz.bin.i and dirz.bin)
    Notice: in situations where time series of computed hydrodynamic data are used the corresponding grid file of type gitter05.dat/bin must be supplied.
  4. (optional) wind field (filetype tr2.met.bin.i and filetype tr2.met.bin)

Output-Files

  1. paths of wave rays (filetype insel.dat)
  2. (optional) trace of program execution (filetype warm.trc)

Methodology

In a first computational step paths for wave rays are determined. The equation for energy transport is used to calculate the two-dimensional energy density spectrum. This equation is solved in the frequency directional domain. The calculations are carried through on a grid which consists of a set of right-angled triangles.
