Depth of Flow in Upstream Leg of Flume at One Third Point given Discharge Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Flow = (Environmental Discharge/(2.264*Width of Throat))^(2/3)
d_f = (Q_e/(2.264*W_t))^(2/3)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Flow - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow is the distance from the top or surface of the flow to the bottom of a channel or other waterway or Depth of Flow at the Vertical while measuring Sound Weights.
Environmental Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Environmental Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Width of Throat - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Throat is the narrowest section of a conduit or channel, such as in a venturi meter or flume.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Environmental Discharge: 39.82 Cubic Meter per Second --> 39.82 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Width of Throat: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d_f = (Q_e/(2.264*W_t))^(2/3) --> (39.82/(2.264*3))^(2/3)

Evaluating ... ...

d_f = 3.25138989986678

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.25138989986678 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.25138989986678 ≈ 3.25139 Meter <-- Depth of Flow
