Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Catchment Area = (Peak Discharge/Coefficient)^2
A = (Q_p/C)^2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Catchment Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Catchment Area refers to the area of land where all water flows to a single stream, river, lake or even ocean.
Peak Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Peak Discharge is the maximum volume flow rate passing a particular location during an event.
Coefficient - The Coefficient C varies between 1.77 as minimum and 177 as maximum. Limiting or 100 percent chance floods are given by the value of C of 177.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Peak Discharge: 4 Cubic Meter per Second --> 4 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient: 177 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = (Q_p/C)^2 --> (4/177)^2

Evaluating ... ...

A = 0.000510708927830445

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.000510708927830445 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.000510708927830445 ≈ 0.000511 Square Meter <-- Catchment Area

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Catchment Area in Hydrology?

A Catchment Area is a hydrological unit. Each drop of precipitation that falls into a catchment area eventually ends up in the same river going to the sea if it doesn't evaporate. However, it can take a very long time. Catchment areas are separated from each other by watersheds.

How to Calculate Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula?

Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula calculator uses Catchment Area = (Peak Discharge/Coefficient)^2 to calculate the Catchment Area, The Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula is defined as the area of land where all water flows to a single stream, river, lake or even ocean, by the parameters of Peak Discharge over the Catchment area. Catchment Area is denoted by A symbol.

How to calculate Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula, enter Peak Discharge (Q_p) & Coefficient (C) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Catchment Area given Peak Discharge in Jarvis formula calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.000511 = (4/177)^2.
