What are Water Waves & Wave Energy?

A wave, a ridge or swell on the surface of a body of water, normally having a forward motion distinct from the oscillatory motion of the particles that successively compose it. Water waves are considered oscillatory or nearly oscillatory if the motion described by the water particles is circular orbits that are closed or nearly closed for each wave period.
Wave energy (or wave power) is the transport and capture of energy by ocean surface waves. The energy captured is then used for all different kinds of useful work, including electricity generation, water desalination, and pumping of water.

How does Depth affect Wavelength?

The change from deep to shallow water waves occurs when the depth of the water, d, becomes less than one-half of the wavelength of the wave. The speed of deep-water waves depends on the wavelength of the waves. We say that deep-water waves show dispersion. A wave with a longer wavelength travel at a higher speed.

How to Calculate Wavelength given Wave Celerity?

Wavelength given Wave Celerity calculator uses Wavelength = Wave Celerity*Wave Period to calculate the Wavelength, The Wavelength given Wave Celerity formula is defined as the distance between identical points (adjacent crests) in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space given the speed at which an individual wave advances or propagates. Wavelength is denoted by λ symbol.
