h' = (Δh*V)/P
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Average Harbor Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Average Harbor Depth from its nomenclature can be suggested that is different from regular ports in respect of the depth of water.
Difference between High and Low Tide level - (Measured in Meter) - Difference between High and Low Tide level is the difference between the two tide levels.
Total Harbor Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Harbor Volume is defined as the volume of a part of a body of water (as a sea or lake) so protected as to be a place of safety for ships.
Tidal Prism Filling Bay - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Tidal Prism Filling Bay is the volume of water in an estuary or inlet between mean high tide and mean low tide, or the volume of water leaving an estuary at ebb tide.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Difference between High and Low Tide level: 21 Meter --> 21 Meter No Conversion Required
Total Harbor Volume: 6.4 Cubic Meter --> 6.4 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Tidal Prism Filling Bay: 32 Cubic Meter --> 32 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
h' = (Δh*V)/P --> (21*6.4)/32
Evaluating ... ...
h' = 4.2

23 Density Currents in Harbors Calculators

Cross-Sectional Area of Entrance given Water Volume exchanged during entire Tide Period
Go Cross Sectional Area of Entrance = Total Water Volume/(Coefficient for Harbors*sqrt(Broad Sense Heritability*Average Harbor Depth))
Total Water Volume Exchanged during entire Tide Period
Go Total Water Volume = Coefficient for Harbors*Cross Sectional Area of Entrance*sqrt(Broad Sense Heritability*Average Harbor Depth)
Average Depth of Harbor for Water Volume Exchanged during Entire Tide Period
Go Average Harbor Depth = ((Total Water Volume/Coefficient for Harbors*Cross Sectional Area of Entrance)^(1/2 ))/Broad Sense Heritability
Total Harbor Volume based upon Depth given difference between High and Low Tide Levels
Go Total Harbor Volume = Tidal Prism Filling Bay/(Difference between High and Low Tide level/Average Harbor Depth)
Tidal Prism of Harbor Basin given Difference between High and Low Tide Levels
Go Tidal Prism Filling Bay = Total Harbor Volume*(Difference between High and Low Tide level/Average Harbor Depth)
Difference between High and Low Tide Levels given Tidal Prism of Harbor Basin
Go Difference between High and Low Tide level = (Tidal Prism Filling Bay/Total Harbor Volume)*Average Harbor Depth
Velocity in Dry Bed Curve
Go Velocity in Dry Bed Curve = 0.45*sqrt(Broad Sense Heritability*[g]*Water Depth)
Average Harbor Depth
Go Average Harbor Depth = (Difference between High and Low Tide level*Total Harbor Volume)/Tidal Prism Filling Bay
Minimum River Density given Relative Density
Go Minimum River Density = -((Broad Sense Heritability*Average River Density)-Maximum River Density)
Average River Density over one Tide Period given Relative Density
Go Average River Density = (Maximum River Density-Minimum River Density)/Broad Sense Heritability
Maximum River Density given Relative Density
Go Maximum River Density = (Broad Sense Heritability*Average River Density)+Minimum River Density
Relative Density given River Density
Go Broad Sense Heritability = (Maximum River Density-Minimum River Density)/Average River Density
Water Depth given Velocity in Dry Bed Curve
Go Water Depth = ((Velocity in Dry Bed Curve/0.45)^2)/(Broad Sense Heritability*[g])
Relative Density given Velocity in Dry Bed Curve
Go Broad Sense Heritability = Velocity in Dry Bed Curve^2/(0.45*[g]*Water Depth)
Difference between High and Low Tide Levels given Portion caused by Filling
Go Difference between High and Low Tide level = Average Harbor Depth*Portion caused by Filling
Portion caused by Filling given Average Harbor Depth
Go Portion caused by Filling = Difference between High and Low Tide level/Average Harbor Depth
Average Harbor Depth given Portion caused by Filling
Go Average Harbor Depth = Difference between High and Low Tide level/Portion caused by Filling
Portion caused by Filling Evaluated by Comparing Tidal Prism of Harbor to Total Harbor Volume
Go Portion caused by Filling = Tidal Prism Filling Bay/Total Harbor Volume
Total Harbor Volume based upon Depth
Go Total Harbor Volume = Tidal Prism Filling Bay/Portion caused by Filling
Tidal Prism of Harbor Basin
Go Tidal Prism Filling Bay = Portion caused by Filling*Total Harbor Volume
Portion caused by Filling given Ratio of Water Volume Entering Harbor per Tide
Go Portion caused by Filling = Ratio of Water Volume-Density Influence
Density Influence given Ratio of Water Volume entering Harbor per Tide
Go Density Influence = Ratio of Water Volume-Portion caused by Filling
Ratio of Water Volume entering Harbor per Tide to Harbor Volume
Go Ratio of Water Volume = Portion caused by Filling+Density Influence

Average Harbor Depth Formula

Average Harbor Depth = (Difference between High and Low Tide level*Total Harbor Volume)/Tidal Prism Filling Bay
h' = (Δh*V)/P

What is Density Current?

Density current, any current in either a liquid or a gas that is kept in motion by the force of gravity acting on differences in density. A density difference can exist between two fluids because of a difference in temperature, salinity, or concentration of suspended sediment.
