摘　　要：The hydrodynamic efficiency of the vertical porous structures is investigated under regular waves by use of physical models. The hydrodynamic efficiency of the breakwater is presented in terms of the wave transmission （kt）, reflection （kr） and energy dissipation （ka） coefficients. Different wave and structural parameters affecting the breakwater efficiency are tested. It is found that, the transmission coefficient （kt） decreases with the increase of the relative water depth （h/L）, the wave steepness （Hi^L）, the relative breakwater widths （B/L, B/h）, the relative breakwater height （D/h）, and the breakwater porosity （n）. The reflection coefficient （kr） takes the opposite trend of kt when D/h=l.25 and it decreases with the increasing h/L, HJL and B/L when D/h〈1.0. The dissipation coefficient （kd） increases with the increasing h/L, HilL and B/L when D/h〈_l.O and it decreases when D/h=l.25. In which, it is possible to achieve values ofkt smaller than 0.3, k~ larger than 0.5, and kd larger than 0.6 when D/h=1.25, B/h=0.6, h/L〉0.22, B/L〉O. 13, and H/L 〉0.04. Empirical equations are developed for the estimation of the transmission and reflection coefficients. The results of these equations are compared with other experimental and theoretical results and a reasonable agreement is obtained.The hydrodynamic efficiency of the vertical porous structures is investigated under regular waves by use of physical models.
