Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Average Daily Flow = (Maximum Hourly Flow/3)
Q_av = (Q_h/3)
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Average Daily Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Average Daily Flow (ADF) is a measure of the average amount of water passing a point in a river, stream, or through a water treatment system over the course of a day.
Maximum Hourly Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Maximum Hourly Flow (MHF) refers to the highest volume of water passing a specific point in a river, stream, or through a water treatment system within a single hour.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Maximum Hourly Flow: 18 Cubic Meter per Second --> 18 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_av = (Q_h/3) --> (18/3)

Evaluating ... ...

Q_av = 6

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Average Daily Flow

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Average Daily Flow?

Average Daily Flow (ADF) means the cumulative total sewage flow to the sewage works during a particular calendar month divided by the number of days during which sewage was flowing to the sewage works that month.

How to Calculate Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow?

Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow calculator uses Average Daily Flow = (Maximum Hourly Flow/3) to calculate the Average Daily Flow, The Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow formula is defined as the ratio or a conversion factor based on typical flow patterns. In wastewater engineering and hydrology, it is common to assume certain peaking factors to convert between maximum hourly, maximum daily, and average daily flows. Average Daily Flow is denoted by Q_av symbol.

How to calculate Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow, enter Maximum Hourly Flow (Q_h) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.666667 = (18/3).

FAQ

What is Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow?

The Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow formula is defined as the ratio or a conversion factor based on typical flow patterns. In wastewater engineering and hydrology, it is common to assume certain peaking factors to convert between maximum hourly, maximum daily, and average daily flows and is represented as Q_av = (Q_h/3) or Average Daily Flow = (Maximum Hourly Flow/3). Maximum Hourly Flow (MHF) refers to the highest volume of water passing a specific point in a river, stream, or through a water treatment system within a single hour.

How to calculate Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow?

The Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow formula is defined as the ratio or a conversion factor based on typical flow patterns. In wastewater engineering and hydrology, it is common to assume certain peaking factors to convert between maximum hourly, maximum daily, and average daily flows is calculated using Average Daily Flow = (Maximum Hourly Flow/3). To calculate Average Daily Flow given Maximum Hourly Flow, you need Maximum Hourly Flow (Q_h). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Maximum Hourly Flow and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Average Daily Flow?

In this formula, Average Daily Flow uses Maximum Hourly Flow. We can use 3 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Average Daily Flow = (Maximum Daily Flow/2)
Average Daily Flow = Peak Sewage Flow/((18+sqrt(Population in Thousands))/(4+sqrt(Population in Thousands)))
Average Daily Flow = (3/2)*Minimum Daily Flow
