Root Mean Square Wave Height given Average of Waves based upon Rayleigh Distribution Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Root Mean Square Wave Height = Average of All Waves/0.886
H_rms = H'/0.886
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Root Mean Square Wave Height - (Measured in Meter) - Root Mean Square Wave Height is the square root of the average of the squares of all wave heights.
Average of All Waves - Average of All Waves based on the Rayleigh Distribution is the mean value of all the waves.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average of All Waves: 40 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H_rms = H'/0.886 --> 40/0.886

Evaluating ... ...

What is Significant Wave Height ?

Significant Wave Height is defined as the average wave height, from trough to crest, of the highest one-third of the waves. Devised by oceanographer Walter Munk during World War II, the significant wave height provides an estimation of wave heights recorded by a trained observer from a fixed point at sea.

What is Wave Number?

Wave Number is the spatial frequency of a wave in a given medium, typically measured in reciprocal units of distance, such as radians per meter or cycles per meter.
