Relative Depth at New Zero Elevation Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Relative Depth = Height above Bed/Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed)
p = h_o/H
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Relative Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Relative Depth measures the relative distance from the deep white matter surface to the superficial white matter surface.
Height above Bed - (Measured in Meter) - Height above Bed is the elevation from surface of zero elevation to which heights of various points are referenced.
Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) - (Measured in Meter) - Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) of the reservoir is the depth of the reservoir at the Full Reservoir Level (FRL).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Height above Bed: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required
Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed): 11 Meter --> 11 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p = h_o/H --> 2/11

Evaluating ... ...

p = 0.181818181818182

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.181818181818182 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.181818181818182 ≈ 0.181818 Meter <-- Relative Depth

Volume of Sediment Deposited between two Consecutive Heights by Weighted Area Method

Go Volume of Sediment Deposit = (Cross-Sectional Area at Point 1+Cross-Sectional Area at Point 2+sqrt(Cross-Sectional Area at Point 1*Cross-Sectional Area at Point 2))*(Change in Head Between the Points/3)

Relative Area for Different Type Classification of Reservoir

Go Dimensionless Relative Area = Coefficient c*(Relative Depth^Coefficient m1)*(1-Relative Depth)^Coefficient n1

Volume of Sediment Deposition given Incremental Area

Go Volume of Sediment Deposit = 0.5*((Cross-Sectional Area at Point 1+Cross-Sectional Area at Point 2)*Change in Head Between the Points)

Volume of Sediment Deposited between two Consecutive Heights by Average End Area Method

Go Volume of Sediment Deposit = (Cross-Sectional Area at Point 1+Cross-Sectional Area at Point 2)*(Change in Head Between the Points/2)

Difference in Elevations and Original Bed of Reservoir given New Total Depth of Reservoir

Go Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) = New Total Depth of Reservoir+Height above Bed

New Total Depth of Reservoir

Go New Total Depth of Reservoir = Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed)-Height above Bed

Difference in Elevations of Full Reservoir Level and Original Bed of Reservoir

Go Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) = Height above Bed/Relative Depth

Height up to which Sediment Completely Fills up given New Relative Depth

Go Height above Bed = Relative Depth*Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed)

Relative Depth at New Zero Elevation

Go Relative Depth = Height above Bed/Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed)

Relative Area given Soil Erodibility Factor

Go Dimensionless Relative Area = Sediment Area/Soil Erodibility Factor

Sediment Area at any Height above Datum

Go Sediment Area = Dimensionless Relative Area*Soil Erodibility Factor

Relative Depth at New Zero Elevation Formula

Relative Depth = Height above Bed/Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed)
p = h_o/H

What is a Reservoir?

A Reservoir is an artificial lake where water is stored. Most reservoirs are formed by constructing dams across rivers. A reservoir can also be formed from a natural lake whose outlet has been dammed to control the water level. The dam controls the amount of water that flows out of the reservoir.

How to Calculate Relative Depth at New Zero Elevation?

Relative Depth at New Zero Elevation calculator uses Relative Depth = Height above Bed/Difference in the Elevation (FRL and Original bed) to calculate the Relative Depth, The Relative Depth at New Zero Elevation formula is defined as the ratio of height above the reservoir bed up to which sediment fills forming the new datum to that of the difference in elevation of FRL. Relative Depth is denoted by p symbol.
