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 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
Keulegan Constant for Non-sinusoidal Character: 1.01 --> 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*C)/(V_m*A_avg) --> (32*pi*1.01)/(4.1*8)

Evaluating ... ...

T = 3.09561812695189

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

97688272.6425508 Second -->3.09561812695189 Year (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

3.09561812695189 ≈ 3.095618 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 called Tidal?

A horizontal movement of water often accompanies the rising and falling of the tide. This is called the tidal current. The incoming tide along the coast and into the bays and estuaries is called a flood current; the outgoing tide is called an ebb current.
