The hydrodynamic coefficients on a deeply submerged solid/porous disk subjected to forced heave oscillation have been investigated in analytical and experimental approaches. The analytical model is developed by means of a matched eigenfunction expansion method (MEEM) using a quadratic relationship between the pressure drop and traversing fluid velocity across the porous disk. For the improvement and validation of the analytical model, a series of experiments with the solid/porous disks is conducted for various porosities, Keulegan-Carpenter (KC) numbers, and oscillation periods. In addition to the small-scale hole vortices across the porous disk, the effect of edge vortices on the hydrodynamic coefficients is empirically implemented by curve-fitting with experimental data. The inclusion of edge vortices in the analytical model results in good agreement with experimental data of the damping coefficient for a deeply submerged disk. However, there are some discrepancies in the added mass, with noticeable differences occurring in the disk with low porosity.
