Froude Number given Dimensionless Estuary number Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Froude Number = sqrt((Estuary Number*Fresh Water River Flow*Tidal Period)/Volume of Tidal Prism)
Fr = sqrt((E*Q_r*T)/P)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Froude Number - Froude Number is the measurement of bulk flow characteristics such as waves, sand bedforms, flow or depth interactions at a cross-section or between boulders.
Estuary Number - Estuary Number is used in the study of estuarine circulation, which refers to the residual flow pattern in an estuary induced by the density difference between seawater and river water.
Fresh Water River Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Fresh Water River Flow is the degree of mixing in an estuary and can be approximately related to the ratio between the volume of the tidal prism and the river flow.
Tidal Period - (Measured in Second) - Tidal Period is the time it takes for a specific site on Earth to rotate from an exact point under moon to same point under moon, also known as “tidal day” and it’s slightly longer than a solar day.
Volume of Tidal Prism - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Tidal Prism 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

Estuary Number: 6.154 --> No Conversion Required
Fresh Water River Flow: 5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Tidal Period: 130 Second --> 130 Second No Conversion Required

What is an Estuary?

An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of brackish water with one or more rivers or streams flowing into it, and with a free connection to the open sea. Estuaries form a transition zone between river environments and maritime environments and are an example of an ecotone.
