What is Rate of Flow?

In physics and engineering, in particular fluid dynamics, the volumetric flow rate is the volume of fluid which passes per unit time; usually it is represented by the symbol Q. The SI unit is cubic metres per second. Another unit used is standard cubic centimetres per minute. In hydrometry, it is known as discharge.

How to Calculate Discharge given Critical Section Factor?

Discharge given Critical Section Factor calculator uses Discharge of Channel = Section Factor*sqrt([g]) to calculate the Discharge of Channel, Discharge given Critical Section Factor is defined as the amount of fluid flowing per second in channel. Discharge of Channel is denoted by Q symbol.

How to calculate Discharge given Critical Section Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Discharge given Critical Section Factor, enter Section Factor (Z) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Discharge given Critical Section Factor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 31.31557 = 6.8*sqrt([g]).
