Length of Weir or Notch without Velocity of Approach Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Weir = Discharge Weir/(2/3*Coefficient of Discharge*sqrt(2*[g])*Initial Height of Liquid^(3/2))
L_w = Q/(2/3*C_d*sqrt(2*[g])*H_i^(3/2))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

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 - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Weir is the of the base of weir through which discharge is taking place.
Discharge Weir - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge Weir is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Coefficient of Discharge - The Coefficient of Discharge or efflux coefficient is the ratio of the actual discharge to the theoretical discharge.
Initial Height of Liquid - (Measured in Meter) - The Initial height of liquid is a variable from the tank emptying through an orifice at its bottom.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge Weir: 40 Cubic Meter per Second --> 40 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Discharge: 0.8 --> No Conversion Required
Initial Height of Liquid: 186.1 Meter --> 186.1 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_w = Q/(2/3*C_d*sqrt(2*[g])*H_i^(3/2)) --> 40/(2/3*0.8*sqrt(2*[g])*186.1^(3/2))

Evaluating ... ...

L_w = 0.00667062256248919

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00667062256248919 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.00667062256248919 ≈ 0.006671 Meter <-- Length of Weir

What is discharge over a rectangular notch?

The discharge through a weir or notch is directly related to the water depth or head (H). This head is affected by the condition of the crest, the contraction, the velocity of the approaching stream, and the elevation of the water surface downstream from the weir.

What is suppressed weir?

A measuring weir having its sides flush with the sides of the channel so that there are no end contractions.
