Length of Crest without considering Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Weir Crest = ((Francis Discharge*2)/(3*Coefficient of Discharge*sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity)))^(2/3)+(0.1*Number of End Contraction*Height of Water above Crest of Weir)
L_w = ((Q_Fr*2)/(3*C_d*sqrt(2*g)))^(2/3)+(0.1*n*S_w)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 6 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

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.
Coefficient of Discharge - The Coefficient of Discharge is ratio of actual discharge to theoretical discharge.
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.
Number of End Contraction - Number of End Contraction 1 can be described as the end contractions acting on a channel.
Height of Water above Crest of Weir - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Water above Crest of Weir is defined as the water surface height above crest.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Francis Discharge: 8 Cubic Meter per Second --> 8 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Discharge: 0.66 --> No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Number of End Contraction: 4 --> No Conversion Required
Height of Water above Crest of Weir: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_w = ((Q_Fr*2)/(3*C_d*sqrt(2*g)))^(2/3)+(0.1*n*S_w) --> ((8*2)/(3*0.66*sqrt(2*9.8)))^(2/3)+(0.1*4*2)

Evaluating ... ...

L_w = 2.2935433682893

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.2935433682893 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.2935433682893 ≈ 2.293543 Meter <-- Length of Weir Crest
