Hi all,

I'm hoping to run a simulation with a time-varying boundary condition to represent a tide rising and falling. I have been using Bluekenue and Fudaa as pre-processors, but have not been able to set a changing boundary condition. Do you have any suggestions, or has this issue come up in the past? Any help would be much appreciated!

Regards,
Alex

Hello

Tide can be handled automatically by Telemac-2D using several keywords.
Time-varying boundary condition is also possible with Telemac, although it is not prepared with pre-processing tools.

These two aspects are well explained in the user manual that you can find here.

with my best regards

Hi Alex,

You also can find something useful by looking at some examples in TELEMAC (examples directory, e.g: C:\opentelemac-mascaret\v7p0\examples\telemac2d\tide\t2d_tide-jmj_type_gen.cas), so you can understand more how to set up boundary conditions with your case.

Hope this helps

Best Regards

Sorry to bother you again but I have a quick follow-up: would it be equivalent if I set a tide versus created a liquid boundary file that described the height (SL) of the open boundary moving up and down with the motion of a tide?

I am using the liquid boundary approach, and just want to make sure that I am simulating the right conditions. Thanks!

When you create a mesh with Blue Kenue, a default boundary condition is solid. If you want to change boundary condition in a specified location, you just double-click on first point, then hold a Shift-key, double-click on the end-point, right-click on the mouse and select an select Add Boundary Segment..

To activate boundary conditions, there is one key word: OPTION FOR LIQUID BOUNDARIES (p.44-reference manual) you have to list in your steering file. If you select option 2 by Thompson, this option is usual for coastal domains (well described in User Manual Telemac 2D p.37).

Also with tide, you use a keyword: OPTION FOR TIDAL BOUNDARY CONDITIONS (p.38 Use Manual, p.46-Reference Manual), also a keyword: TIDAL DATA BASE...

Telemac can automatically read TIDAL DATA BASE (e.g TPXO). In your model, you have to specify your location in order to get right data.

Hope what I explained above helps you.

Best Regards

Huy
