Variables Used
Head on Upstream of Weir - (Measured in Meter) - Head on Upstream of Weirr pertains to the energy status of water in water flow systems and is useful for describing flow in hydraulic structures.
Discharge through Drowned Portion - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge through Drowned Portion is a measure of the quantity of fluid flow over unit time, representing the quantity of water in between the downstream and the crest of the water.
Coefficient of Discharge - The Coefficient of Discharge is ratio of actual discharge to theoretical discharge.
Length of Weir Crest - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Weir Crest is the measurement or extent of Weir Crest from end to end.
Head on Downstream of Weir - (Measured in Meter) - Head on Downstream of Weir pertains to the energy status of water in water flow systems and is useful for describing flow in hydraulic structures.
Acceleration due to Gravity - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - The Acceleration due to Gravity is acceleration gained by an object because of gravitational force.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Discharge through Drowned Portion: 99.96 Cubic Meter per Second --> 99.96 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Discharge: 0.66 --> No Conversion Required
Length of Weir Crest: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Head on Downstream of Weir: 5.1 Meter --> 5.1 Meter No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
HUpstream = (Q2/(Cd*Lw*h2))^2*(1/(2*g))+h2 --> (99.96/(0.66*3*5.1))^2*(1/(2*9.8))+5.1
Evaluating ... ...
HUpstream = 10.0994898479747
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
10.0994898479747 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
10.0994898479747 10.09949 Meter <-- Head on Upstream of Weir
