Water Depth for given Limiting Wave Period Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Water Depth from Bed = [g]*(Limiting Wave Period/9.78)^(1/0.5)
D_w = [g]*(T_p/9.78)^(1/0.5)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Variables Used

Water Depth from Bed - (Measured in Meter) - Water Depth from Bed means the depth as measured from the water level to the bottom of the considered water body.
Limiting Wave Period - (Measured in Second) - Limiting Wave Period is defined as the parameter of wave mechanics.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Limiting Wave Period: 21 Second --> 21 Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_w = [g]*(T_p/9.78)^(1/0.5) --> [g]*(21/9.78)^(1/0.5)

Evaluating ... ...

What is Fetch Length?

In Oceanography wind fetch, also known as fetch length or simply fetch, is the length of water over which a given wind has blown without obstruction. Fetch, area of ocean or lake surface over which the wind blows in an essentially constant direction, thus generating waves. The term also is used as a synonym for fetch length, which is the horizontal distance over which wave-generating winds blow.
