Area of Opening given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Area of Opening = Inlet Capacity/(0.6*(2*Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment*Depth)^(1/2))
A_o = Q_i/(0.6*(2*g*D)^(1/2))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Area of Opening - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Opening refers to the physical space in a structure or barrier through which air, water, or other substances can pass.
Inlet Capacity - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Inlet Capacity refers to the maximum rate at which a storm water inlet or drainage structure can accept and convey water without causing flooding or other adverse impacts.
Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment is the acceleration gained by an object due to gravitational force.
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth refers to the vertical distance from a reference point to the bottom of a body of water or to a specific depth below the water surface.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Inlet Capacity: 42 Cubic Meter per Second --> 42 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A_o = Q_i/(0.6*(2*g*D)^(1/2)) --> 42/(0.6*(2*9.8*3)^(1/2))

Evaluating ... ...

A_o = 9.12870929175277

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.12870929175277 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9.12870929175277 ≈ 9.128709 Square Meter <-- Area of Opening

Depth of Flow given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in

Go Depth = ((Inlet Capacity/(0.6*Area of Opening))^2)*(1/(2*Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment))

Depression in Curb Inlet given Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter flow

Go Depression in Curb Inlet = ((Runoff Quantity/(0.7*Length of Opening))^(2/3))-Depth of Flow at Inlet

Depth of Flow at Inlet given Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter Flow

Go Depth of Flow at Inlet = ((Runoff Quantity/(0.7*Length of Opening))^(2/3))-Depression in Curb Inlet

Area of Opening given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in

Go Area of Opening = Inlet Capacity/(0.6*(2*Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment*Depth)^(1/2))

Length of Opening given Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter Flow

Go Length of Opening = Runoff Quantity/(0.7*(Depression in Curb Inlet+Depth of Flow at Inlet)^(3/2))

Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in

Go Inlet Capacity = 0.6*Area of Opening*((2*Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment*Depth)^(1/2))

Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter Flow

Go Runoff Quantity = 0.7*Length of Opening*(Depression in Curb Inlet+Depth of Flow at Inlet)^(3/2)

Depth of Flow at Inlet given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth up to 4.8in

Go Depth of Flow at Inlet = (Water Flow/(3*Perimeter of Grate Opening))^(2/3)

Perimeter when Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth is up to 4.8 inches

Go Perimeter of Grate Opening = Water Flow/(3*Depth of Flow at Inlet^(3/2))

Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth

Go Water Flow = 3*Perimeter of Grate Opening*Depth of Flow at Inlet^(3/2)

Area of Opening given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in Formula

Area of Opening = Inlet Capacity/(0.6*(2*Acceleration due to Gravity in Environment*Depth)^(1/2))
A_o = Q_i/(0.6*(2*g*D)^(1/2))

What is Flow Depth?

Flow depth is the depth of flow in a channel or culvert when the slope of the water surface and channel bottom is the same and the water depth remains constant.
