Tidal Period given Maximum Cross-sectionally Averaged Velocity and Tidal Prism Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Tidal Duration = (Tidal Prism Filling Bay*pi)/(Maximum Cross Sectional Average Velocity*Average Area over the Channel Length)
T = (P*pi)/(V_m*A_avg)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

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.
Maximum Cross Sectional Average Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Maximum Cross Sectional Average Velocity during a tidal cycle which is the periodic rise and fall of the waters of the ocean and its inlets.
Average Area over the Channel Length - (Measured in Square Meter) - Average Area over the Channel Length is calculated with surface area of bay, change of bay elevation with time and average velocity in channel for flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Tidal Prism Filling Bay: 32 Cubic Meter --> 32 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Maximum Cross Sectional Average Velocity: 4.1 Meter per Second --> 4.1 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Average Area over the Channel Length: 8 Square Meter --> 8 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = (P*pi)/(V_m*A_avg) --> (32*pi)/(4.1*8)

Evaluating ... ...

T = 3.06496844252663

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

96721062.0223275 Second -->3.06496844252663 Year (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

3.06496844252663 ≈ 3.064968 Year <-- Tidal Duration
