In the present paper, Helmholtz resonator, which is widely used as a sound-amplification device, is applied to the development of seawater-exchanging breakwater. The incident waves can induce a large response in the resonator when incident wave frequency is close to one of natural modes of the resonator. Largely amplified potential energy due to the resonance supplies clean seawater into the harbor side throughout the channel. Flow supplied by the resonator circulates the seawater of harbor and helps to improve water quality. Within the framework of linear potential theory, matched asymptotic expansion method is employed to analyze the wave responses in a resonator. The semi-circular shape of the resonator has been chosen as an analytic model for mathematical simplicity. The wave responses of both single and arrays of Helmholtz resonator are investi¬gated. To validate an analytic solution, model test is conducted at 2-dimensional wave tanle Wave hcights in the resonator and velocity at the channel are measured for the state of valve-on and valve-off.

본 연구에서는 음향학에서 음파를 제어하는데 주로 이용되는 헤름홀츠 공명장치의 원리를 방파제에 응용하였다. 외해에서 발생된 입사파는 Fig.1에 보여진 입구를 가진 공명 구조물(Resonant Structure)을 만나면 에너지 일부는 입구를 통하여 방사(Radiate)되며 또 일부 에너지는 입구를 통하여 공명 구조물 안으로 방사된다. 공명 구조물 안으로 들어온 파의 주파수와 공명 구조물의 고유 주파수(Natural Frequency)들 중 첫 번째 공진 모드(Resonance Mode)의 주파수가 일치되면 구조물 내부에서의 파는 크게 증폭된다.
