Mixing Parameter given Dimensionless Estuary Number Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Mixing Parameter = Froude Number^2/Estuary Number
M = Fr^2/E
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Mixing Parameter - Mixing Parameter is the degree of mixing in an estuary which can be approximately related to the ratio between the volume of the tidal prism and the river flow.
Froude Number - Froude Number is the measurement of bulk flow characteristics such as waves, sand bedforms, flow or depth interactions at a cross-section or between boulders.
Estuary Number - Estuary Number is used in the study of estuarine circulation, which refers to the residual flow pattern in an estuary induced by the density difference between seawater and river water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Froude Number: 10 --> No Conversion Required
Estuary Number: 6.154 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

M = Fr^2/E --> 10^2/6.154

Evaluating ... ...

M = 16.249593760156

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

16.249593760156 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

16.249593760156 ≈ 16.24959 <-- Mixing Parameter

What is an Estuary?

An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of brackish water with one or more rivers or streams flowing into it, and with a free connection to the open sea. Estuaries form a transition zone between river environments and maritime environments and are an example of an ecotone.
