1.2. Output File

There is only one output file from AqwaFlow, <name>.TXT, containing the flow parameters at the user specified points for all the wave frequencies and directions defined in the Aqwa-Line data file.

Below is a partial extract from the output file generated by AqwaFlow:

   VELOCITY,POTENTIAL,PRESSURE,WAVE ELEVATION AT SPECIFIED POSITIONS
                           DUE TO STRUCTURE# 1

                Pot: Total potential
                Pre: Total pressure (excluding hydrostatic)
                Wav: Total wave surface elevation
                Phases are with reference to COG of Str# 1

                WAVE AMPLITUDE   =     1.00000
