2.1.3 Boundary conditions

Selecting boundary conditions for wind-only ocean model

2022-12-05T12:57:09Z

I am modelling an island surrounded on all sides by ocean, with the island at the center of the grid.

The model works ok when forced with astronomical water levels only (tidally driven) but I want to use the same grid for a wind-forcing only simulation. When I run the FLOW model without any boundary conditions (just a steady wind comprised of a uniform x-field and y-field) the resulting flow runs parallel to the edge of the grid, following the edges round in a loop (like the boundary is solid). What boundary conditions need imposing to prevent this effect?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Spiderweb grid from Delft Dashboard - error when running

2022-04-26T19:52:45Z

I am trying to generate a Spiderweb grid for Hurricane Ike for use in Delft3D-FLOW. I was using an older version of Dashboard and the resulting spiderweb grid seemed to work fine. However, the tidal database didn't work so I had to upgrade. Spiderweb grid files from the new Dashboard yield "*** ERROR Error reading cyclone wind-u field." Any hints?

Importing Water Level Time Series from WPS

I am having issues importing TPXO water levels in the GUI, and was wondering if it is possible to update the path to reconnect with the server? Thanks!
