Constant used in Flood Discharge by Fanning's Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Fanning's Constant = (Flood Discharge by Fanning's Formula/(Catchment Area for Flood Discharge)^(5/6))
C_F = (Q_F/(A_km)^(5/6))
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Fanning's Constant - Fanning's Constant refers to an empirical value used in flood estimation formulas, adjusted for specific regional conditions especially American catchment.
Flood Discharge by Fanning's Formula - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flood Discharge by Fanning's Formula refers to the volume of water flowing through a river or stream during a flood, typically measured in (m³/s) or (cfs).
Catchment Area for Flood Discharge - (Measured in Square Meter) - Catchment Area for Flood Discharge refers to an area of land where all water flows to a single stream, river, lake or even ocean, typically in km unit.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flood Discharge by Fanning's Formula: 526837.2 Cubic Meter per Second --> 526837.2 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Catchment Area for Flood Discharge: 2.4 Square Kilometer --> 2400000 Square Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_F = (Q_F/(A_km)^(5/6)) --> (526837.2/(2400000)^(5/6))

Evaluating ... ...

C_F = 2.54000008702899

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.54000008702899 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.54000008702899 ≈ 2.54 <-- Fanning's Constant
