Abstract |
In 1999 the hydraulic boundary conditions have been determined with SWAN, version 30.62 and have been assimilated in the RAND2001 database. Alkyon & WL | Delft Hydraulics (2002) have proposed an advanced method for hindcasting measured storm events with the SWAN model. In this study a first application of this generic hindcasting method has been presented. The results will be compared with the results obtained with the more simplified, standard hindcasting method that has been used in 1999. The reliability of the hydraulic boundary conditions contained in RAND2001 has been investigated by comparing the SWAN results for the standard and advanced hindcasting method with measurements. Since 1999 SWAN has developed significantly. The present standard version 40.11 contains improvements in physical formulations, handling of the boundary and pre- and postprocessing. After version 40.11 only research versions have been developed, each containing changes in one aspect. One of them is 40.16. Also with SWAN 40.16 computations have been carried out applying the standard and advanced hindcasting method. The SWAN results have been compared with measurements by means of scatter plots and statistical parameters. The reliability of SWAN has been investigated by comparing the scatter plots and statistical parameters for all SWAN versions. The comparison has been made based on a subdivision in locations, storm days and classes (current following and opposing wind direction, depth or not-depth limited situations and presence of low-frequency energy). The major conclusions that have been drawn from this study are the following. The RAND2001 data set is not necessarily reliable, since the computational results at MP6 are questionable. Furthermore, the advanced hindcasting approach generally leads to improved results in comparison with the ‘standard’ approach. The inclusion of current effects and the use of a more recent bottom topography improves the results the most. Finally, the performance of SWAN 40.16 is similar to SWAN 30.62. |
