| Abstract: | Summary ?A newly developed ocean general circulation model has been tested and verified with some idealized experiments. Generally
two types of idealized experiments have been done here. First types are called as “symmetric experiments” and second types
are called as “transport experiments”. The first types of experiment help to correct the model core and any deficiency from
boundary conditions. The second types of experiment are the type of validation experiment. In both the experiments there are
no continents, so in the first type of experiments where symmetric forcings are provided one can expect that model should
maintain the symmetric nature. In the second type of experiments one can expect that model should respond correctly to the
wind forcings, if no wind curl is present in the wind forcing there will be no circulation in the extratropics and if there
is no wind the equator there will be no circulation. The model reproduces the possible envisaged results of these experiments
and gives the confidence for performing the realistic integration.
