*SQUALLWIND, FILE=PATH\FILSQ.dat

Data format:

A single line with 2 values

BTIME DURAT

Status :

Optional (dynamics)

Purpose :

This command defines a sequence of a squall wind. A variation of the velocity and the heading of the wind is taken into account.

Details :

Parameter	Description
BTIME	Beginning time (s)
DURAT	Duration of the squall wind event (s)
PATH	Definition of the PATH of the location of the wave ASCII file
FILSQ	name of the ASCII squall wind definition input file

File definition :

Warning

The name of the external file describing the squall wind is limited to 8 characters and his extension is .dat. The separator is " " (a space). The structure of the file is : \(t_i\) \(V_i\) \(H_i\)

\(t_j\) \(V_j\) \(H_j\)

\(t_k\) \(V_k\) \(H_k\)

where :

\(t_i\) = Time step of the squall wind (s), TI may be different than the time step used within the simulation.
\(V_i\) = Velocity of the squall wind at TI (UNIT/s)
\(H_i\) = heading at TI ()

Example :

*SQUALLWIND,FILE=PATH\squall21.dat
500 100

This defines a squall wind beginning at t=500 seconds with a 100 seconds duration. The external file is squall21.dat.
