Capacity Inflow Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Capacity-Inflow Ratio = Capacity of Reservoir/Inflow Rate
CI = C/I
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Capacity-Inflow Ratio - Capacity-Inflow Ratio is the ratio of the reservoir capacity to the total inflow of water in the reservoir.
Capacity of Reservoir - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Capacity of Reservoir is the volume of water that can be stored in a particular reservoir and can be calculated by using a topographic map of the region.
Inflow Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Inflow Rate for a given catchment area is the average volume of incoming water in unit time at any interval of time of the day.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Capacity of Reservoir: 20 Cubic Meter --> 20 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Inflow Rate: 28 Cubic Meter per Second --> 28 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

CI = C/I --> 20/28

Evaluating ... ...

CI = 0.714285714285714

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.714285714285714 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.714285714285714 ≈ 0.714286 <-- Capacity-Inflow Ratio

What is Reservoir Trap Efficiency?

The Reservoir Trap Efficiency is defined as the ratio of deposited sediment to the total sediment inflow for a given period within the reservoirs economic life time.

What is Sediment delivery ratio (SDR)?

Sediment delivery ratio (SDR) is defined as the sediment yield from an area divided by the gross erosion of that same area. SDR is expressed as a percent and represents the efficiency of the watershed in moving soil particles from areas of erosion to the point where sediment yield is measured.
