How to Calculate Breaker Depth Index given Wave Period?
Breaker Depth Index given Wave Period calculator uses Breaker Depth Index = Empirically determined Functions of Beach Slope B-Empirically determined Functions of Beach Slope A*(Wave Height at Incipient Breaking/([g]*Wave Period for Breaker Index^2)) to calculate the Breaker Depth Index, The Breaker Depth Index given Wave Period is defined as ratio between height of wave and water depth in which wave breaks. Breaker Depth Index is denoted by γb symbol.
How to calculate Breaker Depth Index given Wave Period using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Breaker Depth Index given Wave Period, enter Empirically determined Functions of Beach Slope B (b), Empirically determined Functions of Beach Slope A (a), Wave Height at Incipient Breaking (Hb) & Wave Period for Breaker Index (Tb) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Breaker Depth Index given Wave Period calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.32247 = 1.56-43.8*(18/([g]*8.06^2)).
