Sediment Area at any Height above Datum Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Sediment Area = Dimensionless Relative Area*Soil Erodibility Factor
As = Ap*K
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Sediment Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Sediment Area at any depth above the new datum is an area from where solid material is moved and deposited in a new location.
Dimensionless Relative Area - Dimensionless Relative Area is a dimensionless unit defined as the ratio of area of elevation above the bed to that of area at initial zero elevation.
Soil Erodibility Factor - Soil Erodibility Factor is the intrinsic susceptibility of a soil to erosion by runoff and raindrop impact.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Dimensionless Relative Area: 1.9 --> No Conversion Required
Soil Erodibility Factor: 0.17 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
As = Ap*K --> 1.9*0.17
Evaluating ... ...
As = 0.323
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.323 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.323 Square Meter <-- Sediment Area
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

11 Empirical Area Reduction Method Calculators

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

Sediment Area at any Height above Datum Formula

Sediment Area = Dimensionless Relative Area*Soil Erodibility Factor
As = Ap*K

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.
