Francis Formula for Discharge for Rectangular Notch if Velocity is considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Francis Discharge = 1.84*(Length of Weir Crest-0.1*Number of End Contraction*Still Water Head)*(Still Water Head^(3/2)-Velocity Head^(3/2))
Q_Fr = 1.84*(L_w-0.1*n*H_Stillwater)*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2))
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Francis Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Francis Discharge is calculated from the empirical formula given by Francis.
Length of Weir Crest - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Weir Crest is the measurement or extent of Weir Crest from end to end.
Number of End Contraction - Number of End Contraction 1 can be described as the end contractions acting on a channel.
Still Water Head - (Measured in Meter) - Still Water Head is the head of water which is still over weir.
Velocity Head - (Measured in Meter) - Velocity Head is represented in the term of length unit, also referred to as kinetic head represents the kinetic energy of the fluid.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Weir Crest: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Number of End Contraction: 4 --> No Conversion Required
Still Water Head: 6.6 Meter --> 6.6 Meter No Conversion Required
Velocity Head: 4.6 Meter --> 4.6 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_Fr = 1.84*(L_w-0.1*n*H_Stillwater)*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2)) --> 1.84*(3-0.1*4*6.6)*(6.6^(3/2)-4.6^(3/2))

Evaluating ... ...

Q_Fr = 4.69628758227097

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.69628758227097 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.69628758227097 ≈ 4.696288 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Francis Discharge
