Variables Used

Tidal Duration - (Measured in Year) - Tidal duration is an efficient way of guesstimating how much water there is, at any given time of day, over a particular point.
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.
Keulegan Constant for Non-sinusoidal Character - Keulegan Constant for Non-sinusoidal Character quantifies drag force on structures exposed to irregular water flow, aiding design considerations.
Maximum Instantaneous Ebb Tide Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Maximum Instantaneous Ebb Tide Discharge per unit width [length^3/time-length]. Ebb is the tidal phase during which water level is falling & flood tidal phase during which water level rises.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Tidal Prism Filling Bay: 32 Cubic Meter --> 32 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Keulegan Constant for Non-sinusoidal Character: 1.01 --> No Conversion Required
Maximum Instantaneous Ebb Tide Discharge: 50 Cubic Meter per Second --> 50 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = (P*pi*C)/Q_max --> (32*pi*1.01)/50

Evaluating ... ...

T = 2.03072549128044

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

64083506.8535133 Second -->2.03072549128044 Year (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

2.03072549128044 ≈ 2.030725 Year <-- Tidal Duration

What is Inlet flow patterns?

An Inlet has a "gorge" where flows converge before they expand again on the opposite side. Shoal (shallow) areas that extend bayward and oceanward from the gorge depend on inlet hydraulics, wave conditions, and general geomorphology. All these interact to determine flow patterns in and around the inlet and locations where flow channels occur.

What is Keulegan-Carpenter number?

Keulegan-Carpenter number KC is the ratio between inertia and drag forces in an oscillatory flow of period T and is widely used in ocean engineering to take into account viscous effects, L being the reference length of the structure (e.g. a cylinder diameter).

How to Calculate Tidal Period Accounting for Non-sinusoidal Character of Prototype Flow by Keulegan?

Tidal Period Accounting for Non-sinusoidal Character of Prototype Flow by Keulegan calculator uses Tidal Duration = (Tidal Prism Filling Bay*pi*Keulegan Constant for Non-sinusoidal Character)/Maximum Instantaneous Ebb Tide Discharge to calculate the Tidal Duration, The Tidal Period Accounting for Non-sinusoidal Character of Prototype Flow by Keulegan is defined as the time required for a shallow-water wave to propagate from the inlet to the farthest point in the bay.
