Flood Discharge by Ryve's Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Flood Discharge by Ryve's Formula = Ryve's Constant*(Catchment Area for Flood Discharge)^(2/3)
Q_R = C_R*(A_km)^(2/3)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Flood Discharge by Ryve's Formula - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flood Discharge by Ryve's Formula refers to the volume of water flowing through a river or stream during a flood event, typically measured in m³/s or cfs.
Ryve's Constant - Ryve's Constant refers to an empirical coefficient used in Ryve's formula for estimating peak flood discharge based on catchment area and rainfall characteristics.
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

Ryve's Constant: 6.75 --> 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

Q_R = C_R*(A_km)^(2/3) --> 6.75*(2400000)^(2/3)

Evaluating ... ...

Q_R = 120997.928157043

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

120997.928157043 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

120997.928157043 ≈ 120997.9 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Flood Discharge by Ryve's Formula

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
