Stokes' Second Approximation to Wave Speed if there is no Mass Transport Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wave Speed = Rate of Volume Flow/Coastal Mean Depth
v = V_rate/d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Wave Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wave Speed is the rate at which a wave travels through a medium, measured in distance per unit time.
Rate of Volume Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Rate of Volume Flow is the volume of fluid that passes per unit of time.
Coastal Mean Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Coastal Mean Depth of a fluid flow is a measure of the average depth of the fluid in a channel, pipe, or other conduit through which the fluid is flowing.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Rate of Volume Flow: 500 Cubic Meter per Second --> 500 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coastal Mean Depth: 10 Meter --> 10 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

What are the Main Theories for Steady Waves?

There are Two main theories for steady waves – Stokes theory, most suitable for waves which are not very long relative to the water depth; and Cnoidal theory, suitable for the other limit where the waves are much longer than the depth. In addition there is one important numerical method – the Fourier approximation method which solves the problem accurately, and is now widely used in ocean and coastal engineering.

What is Cnoidal wave?

In Fluid Dynamics, a Cnoidal Wave is a nonlinear and exact periodic wave solution of the Korteweg–de Vries equation. These solutions are in terms of the Jacobi elliptic function cn, which is why they are coined cnoidal waves.
