This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Discharge Coefficient - Discharge Coefficient is the ratio of the actual discharge to the theoretical discharge.
Volume Flow Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Volume Flow Rate is the volume of fluid that passes per unit of time.
Area for Siphon Throat - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area for Siphon Throat is the area of the siphon from where the discharge is released.
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.
Head of Liquid - (Measured in Meter) - The Head of Liquid is the height of a liquid column that corresponds to a particular pressure exerted by the liquid column from the base of its container.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume Flow Rate: 1.5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Area for Siphon Throat: 0.12 Square Meter --> 0.12 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Acceleration Due To Gravity in Environment: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Head of Liquid: 15 Meter --> 15 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_d' = Q/(A_s*(2*g*H)^(1/2)) --> 1.5/(0.12*(2*9.8*15)^(1/2))

Evaluating ... ...

C_d' = 0.729014804399755

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.729014804399755 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.729014804399755 ≈ 0.729015 <-- Discharge Coefficient
