W = Am/(S*D)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Channel Width corresponding to Mean Water Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Channel Width corresponding to Mean Water Depth is the distance between banks in a water body and is measured perpendicular to the mean water depth.
Vessel’s midsection wetted Cross-Sectional Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Vessel’s midsection wetted Cross-Sectional Area [length^2] is the perimeter of the cross sectional area that is wet.
Vessel Blockage Ratio - Vessel Blockage Ratio in The continuity and energy equations.
Water Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Water depth means the depth as measured from the water level to the bottom of the considered water body.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Vessel’s midsection wetted Cross-Sectional Area: 31 Square Meter --> 31 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Vessel Blockage Ratio: 0.05 --> No Conversion Required
Water Depth: 12 Meter --> 12 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
