Difference between High and Low Tide Levels given Tidal Prism of Harbor Basin Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Difference between High and Low Tide level = (Tidal Prism Filling Bay/Total Harbor Volume)*Average Harbor Depth
Δh = (P/V)*h'
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Difference between High and Low Tide level - (Measured in Meter) - Difference between High and Low Tide level is the difference between the two tide levels.
Tidal Prism Filling Bay - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Tidal Prism Filling Bay is the volume of water in an estuary or inlet between mean high tide and mean low tide, or the volume of water leaving an estuary at ebb tide.
Total Harbor Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Total Harbor Volume is defined as the volume of a part of a body of water (as a sea or lake) so protected as to be a place of safety for ships.
Average Harbor Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Average Harbor Depth from its nomenclature can be suggested that is different from regular ports in respect of the depth of water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Tidal Prism Filling Bay: 32 Cubic Meter --> 32 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Total Harbor Volume: 6.4 Cubic Meter --> 6.4 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Average Harbor Depth: 6 Meter --> 6 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Δh = (P/V)*h' --> (32/6.4)*6

Evaluating ... ...

Δh = 30

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

30 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

30 Meter <-- Difference between High and Low Tide level

< Density Currents in Harbors Calculators

Total Water Volume Exchanged during entire Tide Period

LaTeX Go Total Water Volume = Coefficient for Harbors*Cross Sectional Area of Entrance*sqrt(Broad Sense Heritability*Average Harbor Depth)

Velocity in Dry Bed Curve

LaTeX Go Velocity in Dry Bed Curve = 0.45*sqrt(Broad Sense Heritability*[g]*Water Depth)

Water Depth given Velocity in Dry Bed Curve

LaTeX Go Water Depth = ((Velocity in Dry Bed Curve/0.45)^2)/(Broad Sense Heritability*[g])

Relative Density given Velocity in Dry Bed Curve

LaTeX Go Broad Sense Heritability = Velocity in Dry Bed Curve^2/(0.45*[g]*Water Depth)

What is Density Current?

Density current, any current in either a liquid or a gas that is kept in motion by the force of gravity acting on differences in density. A density difference can exist between two fluids because of a difference in temperature, salinity, or concentration of suspended sediment.
