Wave Phase Velocity for Wavelength and Wave Period Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Wave Phase Velocity = Wavelength/Mean Wave Period
Cv = λ/T'
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Wave Phase Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wave Phase Velocity is the rate at which the wave propagates in some medium.
Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength can be defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave.
Mean Wave Period - (Measured in Second) - Mean Wave Period is the mean of all wave periods in a time-series representing a certain sea state.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Wavelength: 18 Meter --> 18 Meter No Conversion Required
Mean Wave Period: 2.6 Second --> 2.6 Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula

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
