Variables Used

Tidal Period - (Measured in Second) - Tidal Period is the time taken for a specific site on Earth to rotate from an exact point under moon to same point under moon, also known as “tidal day” and it’s slightly longer than a solar day.
King’s Dimensionless Variable for Freshwater - King’s Dimensionless Variable for Freshwater is a metric used in fluid dynamics to characterize flow patterns in freshwater environments succinctly.
Ocean Tide Amplitude - (Measured in Meter) - Ocean Tide Amplitude is the height difference between high and low tides, reflecting gravitational forces from the moon and sun.
Surface Area of Bay - (Measured in Square Meter) - Surface Area of Bay is defined as a small body of water set off from the main body.
River or Freshwater Inflow to a Bay - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - River or Freshwater Inflow to a Bay is the water that is less saline than marine water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

King’s Dimensionless Variable for Freshwater: 0.57 --> No Conversion Required
Ocean Tide Amplitude: 4 Meter --> 4 Meter No Conversion Required
Surface Area of Bay: 1.5001 Square Meter --> 1.5001 Square Meter No Conversion Required
River or Freshwater Inflow to a Bay: 10 Cubic Meter per Minute --> 0.166666666666667 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = (Qr'*2*pi*a_o*A_b)/Qr --> (0.57*2*pi*4*1.5001)/0.166666666666667

Evaluating ... ...

T = 128.939557900825

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

128.939557900825 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

128.939557900825 ≈ 128.9396 Second <-- Tidal Period

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

What is Ocean Tide?

Tides are caused by gravitational pull of the moon and the sun. Tides are very long-period waves that move through the oceans in response to the forces exerted by the moon and sun. Tides originate in the oceans and progress toward the coastlines where they appear as the regular rise and fall of the sea surface.

What are the Effect of Freshwater Inflow?

If a significant amount of fresh water is introduced into the bay relative to the tidal prism of the inlet, there will be significant changes in bay tide range and velocity through the inlet. King (1974) included freshwater inflow into a Keulegan type model (which did not include the inertial term in the 1-D equation of motion).
