Length of Crest when Discharge for Cipolletti Weir and Velocity is Considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Weir Crest = Discharge by Cipolletti/(1.86*(Still Water Head^(3/2)-Velocity Head^(3/2)))
L_w = Q_C/(1.86*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2)))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Length of Weir Crest - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Weir Crest is the measurement or extent of Weir Crest from end to end.
Discharge by Cipolletti - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge by Cipolletti is the rate of flow of a liquid.
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

Discharge by Cipolletti: 15 Cubic Meter per Second --> 15 Cubic Meter per Second 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

L_w = Q_C/(1.86*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2))) --> 15/(1.86*(6.6^(3/2)-4.6^(3/2)))

Evaluating ... ...

L_w = 1.13748048650968

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.13748048650968 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.13748048650968 ≈ 1.13748 Meter <-- Length of Weir Crest

(Calculation completed in 00.007 seconds)

LaTeX Go Discharge by Cipolletti = (2/3)*Coefficient of Discharge*sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity)*Length of Weir Crest*Height of Water above Crest of Weir^(3/2)

Length of Crest when Discharge for Cipolletti Weir and Velocity is Considered Formula

LaTeX Go

Length of Weir Crest = Discharge by Cipolletti/(1.86*(Still Water Head^(3/2)-Velocity Head^(3/2)))
L_w = Q_C/(1.86*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2)))

What does Head mean?

Hydraulic head is a specific measurement of liquid pressure above a vertical datum.
It is usually measured as a liquid surface elevation.

What is Cipolletti weir?

A standard Cipoletti weir is trapezoidal in shape. The crest and sides of the weir plate are placed far enough from the bottom and sides of the approach channel to produce full contraction. The sides incline outwardly at a slope of 1 horizontal to 4 vertical.
