Height of Wave Action using Zuider Zee Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Height of Wave = Wave Height*(0.75+1.5*(Wind Velocity^2)/(2*[g]))
ha = H*(0.75+1.5*(Vw^2)/(2*[g]))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 3 Variables
Constants Used
[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665
Variables Used
Height of Wave - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Wave is the distance between the lowest and highest points of a person/ shape/ object standing upright.
Wave Height - (Measured in Meter) - Wave Height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough.
Wind Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wind Velocity is an air moving from high to low pressure, usually due to changes in temperature that is the horizontal movement of air specified by its speed and direction.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Wave Height: 0.4 Meter --> 0.4 Meter No Conversion Required
Wind Velocity: 20 Meter per Second --> 20 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
ha = H*(0.75+1.5*(Vw^2)/(2*[g])) --> 0.4*(0.75+1.5*(20^2)/(2*[g]))
Evaluating ... ...
ha = 12.5365945557351
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
12.5365945557351 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
12.5365945557351 12.53659 Meter <-- Height of Wave
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

6 Zuider zee formula Calculators

Zuider Zee Formula for Fetch Length given Setup above Pool Level
Go Fetch length = Height of Wave/(((Wind Velocity*Wind Velocity)*cos(Theta))/(1400*Water Depth))
Zuider Zee formula for Average depth of Water given Setup above Pool level
Go Water Depth = ((Wind Velocity*Wind Velocity)*Fetch length*cos(Theta))/(1400*Height of Wave)
Setup above Pool Level using Zuider Zee Formula
Go Height of Wave = ((Wind Velocity*Wind Velocity)*Fetch length*cos(Theta))/(1400*Water Depth)
Angle of Incidence of Waves by Zuider Zee formula
Go Theta = acos((Height of Dam*(1400*Water Depth))/((Wind Velocity for Freeboard^2)*Fetch length))
Height of Wave from Trough to Crest given Height of Wave Action by Zuider Zee Formula
Go Wave Height = Height of Wave/(0.75+1.5*(Wind Velocity^2)/(2*[g]))
Height of Wave Action using Zuider Zee Formula
Go Height of Wave = Wave Height*(0.75+1.5*(Wind Velocity^2)/(2*[g]))

Height of Wave Action using Zuider Zee Formula Formula

Height of Wave = Wave Height*(0.75+1.5*(Wind Velocity^2)/(2*[g]))
ha = H*(0.75+1.5*(Vw^2)/(2*[g]))

What is Freeboard?

Freeboard (sometimes termed net freeboard) is the vertical distance between the maximum water surface of the spillway design flood and the crown of the dam. This vertical distance should be ample to prevent overtopping of the dam due to wind setup and wave action.
