6.13. The SEAG Data Records - Creation of Wave Grid Pressures

This data record instructs Aqwa-Line to create a .PAG file containing pressures at wave grid points. This file is used by the AGS for plotting wave heights and pressures.

At present the grid size can only be specified from Ansys Workbench. When Aqwa-Line is run as a batch program or from the AGS it is not possible to input any values for the grid size.

(1) The first two parameters give the number of points, in the global X and Y directions, at which the wave pressures will be calculated. The limits are:

 X-directionY-direction
Minimum number of grid points4126
Maximum number of grid points8151
Default number of grid points4126

(2) The last four parameters give the X and Y limits of the grid over which the wave pressures will be calculated. These parameters cannot be set, and should be omitted, when Aqwa is run as a batch program or from the AGS.
