How to Calculate Thickness of Sediment given Drag Force?
Thickness of Sediment given Drag Force calculator uses Volume per Unit Area = (Drag Force/(Unit Weight of Fluid*(Specific Gravity of Sediment-1)*(1-Rugosity Coefficient)*sin(Angle of Inclination of Plane to Horizontal))) to calculate the Volume per Unit Area, The Thickness of Sediment given Drag Force is defined as function of diameter of particle for single grain as an inverse measure of surface area for drag or friction. Volume per Unit Area is denoted by t symbol.
How to calculate Thickness of Sediment given Drag Force using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Thickness of Sediment given Drag Force, enter Drag Force (FD), Unit Weight of Fluid (γw), Specific Gravity of Sediment (G), Rugosity Coefficient (n) & Angle of Inclination of Plane to Horizontal (αi) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Thickness of Sediment given Drag Force calculation can be explained with given input values -> 4692.326 = (11.98/(9810*(1.3-1)*(1-0.015)*sin(1.0471975511964))).
