The main goal of using floating breakwaters is to provide the sheltered area of calm water in the coastal zone. In present research, for analyzing hydrodynamic modeling of pontoon floating breakwaters the AQWA module of ANSYS software has been selected. The main parameters that have been considered in this research are pattern of significant wave height, wave period, and draft and width of floating pontoon. Wave transmission coefficient can be obtained from water surface changes in any point of leeward. Results of numerical modeling demonstrate that a pontoon floating breakwater with relative width greater than 0.4 have appropriate performance. Also it has been found that the transmission coefficient of pontoon floating breakwaters will be in the range of 0.35 to 0.60 if the relative wave period changes in the range of 1.5 to 4.
