Executive Summary | The measurements have been made of the wind waves generated on opposing currents in a wind wave channel which is equipped with a water circulation system. Since what obtained directly using fixed wave gauges were the apparent wave spectra, they were transformed into the true spectra by calculating the theoretical wave velocity to the first order approximation for the experimental velocity distributions including considerable drift currents. The true spectra seemed to be reliable for the low frequency part, though they revealed some inconsistency at the high frequency part. |
