Power per unit Crest Length Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Power Per Unit Crest Length = Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area*Wave Group Speed
P = E*Cg
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Power Per Unit Crest Length - (Measured in Watt) - Power Per Unit Crest Length is the capture of energy of wind waves to do useful work.
Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area - (Measured in Joule per Square Meter) - Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area is the ratio of power per unit crest length to wave group speed.
Wave Group Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wave group speed represents the velocity at which the envelope of a wave packet propagates through a medium.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area: 20 Joule per Square Meter --> 20 Joule per Square Meter No Conversion Required
Wave Group Speed: 2.5 Meter per Second --> 2.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
P = E*Cg --> 20*2.5
Evaluating ... ...
P = 50
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
50 Watt --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
50 Watt <-- Power Per Unit Crest Length

Wave Phase Velocity
Go Wave Phase Velocity = sqrt(([g]/Wave Number for Water Wave)*tanh(Wave Number for Water Wave*Water Depth))
Wave Celerity given Power per unit Crest Length
Go Celerity of the Wave = Power Per Unit Crest Length/(Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area*Ratio of Group Velocity to Phase Velocity)
Power per unit Crest Length given Ratio of Group Velocity to Phase Velocity
Go Power Per Unit Crest Length = Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area*Ratio of Group Velocity to Phase Velocity*Celerity of the Wave
Group Wave Celerity for Power per unit Crest Length
Go Wave Group Speed = Power Per Unit Crest Length/Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area
Wave Energy for Power per unit Crest Length
Go Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area = Power Per Unit Crest Length/Wave Group Speed
Power per unit Crest Length
Go Power Per Unit Crest Length = Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area*Wave Group Speed
Wave Phase Velocity for Wavelength and Wave Period
Go Wave Phase Velocity = Wavelength/Mean Wave Period
Wavelength given Certain Wave Phase Velocity
Go Wavelength = Wave Phase Velocity*Mean Wave Period
Wave Period for Certain Wave Phase Velocity
Go Mean Wave Period = Wavelength/Wave Phase Velocity

Power per unit Crest Length Formula

Power Per Unit Crest Length = Wave Energy Per Unit Surface Area*Wave Group Speed

How is wave power generated?

Wave power, also called ocean wave energy, electrical energy generated by harnessing the up-and-down motion of ocean waves. Wave power is typically produced by floating turbine platforms or buoys that rise and fall with the swells.

What is Wave Energy?

Wave energy is a form of renewable energy that can be harnessed from the motion of the waves. There are several methods of harnessing wave energy that involve placing electricity generators on the surface of the ocean.
