Length of Crest when Francis Formula Discharge and Velocity is considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Weir Crest = (Francis Discharge/(1.84*(Still Water Head^(3/2)-Velocity Head^(3/2))))+(0.1*Number of End Contraction*Still Water Head)
L_w = (Q_Fr/(1.84*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2))))+(0.1*n*H_Stillwater)
This formula uses 5 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.
Francis Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Francis Discharge is calculated from the empirical formula given by Francis.
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.
Number of End Contraction - Number of End Contraction 1 can be described as the end contractions acting on a channel.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Francis Discharge: 8 Cubic Meter per Second --> 8 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
Number of End Contraction: 4 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_w = (Q_Fr/(1.84*(H_Stillwater^(3/2)-H_V^(3/2))))+(0.1*n*H_Stillwater) --> (8/(1.84*(6.6^(3/2)-4.6^(3/2))))+(0.1*4*6.6)

Evaluating ... ...

L_w = 3.2532503492487

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.2532503492487 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.2532503492487 ≈ 3.25325 Meter <-- Length of Weir Crest
