Catchment Factor given Run-off in Inches by Lacey's Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Catchment Factor = (-120*Monsoon Duration Factor*Runoff Depth in Inches for Lacey's Formula)/(Runoff Depth in Inches for Lacey's Formula*Rainfall Depth in Inches-Rainfall Depth in Inches*Rainfall Depth in Inches)
S = (-120*F_m*R_LI)/(R_LI*R_PI-R_PI*R_PI)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Catchment Factor - Catchment Factor refers to topography, shape, size, soil type, and land use (paved or roofed areas).
Monsoon Duration Factor - Monsoon Duration Factor refers to the period during which monsoon rains occur in a specific region. It depends on the monsoon rains.
Runoff Depth in Inches for Lacey's Formula - (Measured in Centimeter) - Runoff Depth in Inches for Lacey's Formula refers to the portion of precipitation or irrigation that flows over the land surface into streams, rivers, or other water bodies.
Rainfall Depth in Inches - (Measured in Centimeter) - Rainfall Depth in Inches refers to the vertical accumulation of rainwater over a specific area during a given time period.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Monsoon Duration Factor: 1.48 --> No Conversion Required
Runoff Depth in Inches for Lacey's Formula: 8.84 Inch --> 22.4536000000898 Centimeter (Check conversion here)
Rainfall Depth in Inches: 24 Inch --> 60.9600000002438 Centimeter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S = (-120*F_m*R_LI)/(R_LI*R_PI-R_PI*R_PI) --> (-120*1.48*22.4536000000898)/(22.4536000000898*60.9600000002438-60.9600000002438*60.9600000002438)

Evaluating ... ...

S = 1.69883447945636

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.69883447945636 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.69883447945636 ≈ 1.698834 <-- Catchment Factor
