22. A vertical profile perpendicular to the crest line of an asymmetrical ripple is given in the figure. The calculated ripple index is………..


Ripple index = (Wavelength) / (Height)

 Wavelength = Stoss length + Lee length = (40 + 200) mm = 240 mm 

 Height = 60 mm 

 So, Ripple index = 240 mm / 60 mm = 4 (Answer)
