Abstract

The paper describes the attempt to develop the accelerated method of simulation of 2-D surface waves with a use of 2-D model derived by simplifications of 3-D equations for potential periodic deep-water waves. The derivation is based on separation of velocity potential in surface-fitted coordinates into linear and non-linear components and analysis of exact Poisson equation for non-linear component of potential on a free surface. This equation contains both the first and second derivatives of velocity potential. The analysis of very accurate multiple solutions for velocity potential obtained with 3-D model shows that these variables are linearly connected to each other, what allows to obtain the 2-D equation for first derivative of potential (i.e., the vertical velocity on a surface), what gives the closed 2-D formulation for 3-D problem of 2-D waves. The connection between first and second variables is not precise; hence, the method as a whole cannot be exact. However, the 2-D model derived is able to reproduce different statistical characteristics of 2-D wave field with good accuracy. The most evident advantage of new model consists of absence of calculation of 3-D structure of velocity potential what increases a speed of calculations by about two orders.
