Net Outflow through Cross-section Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Net Outflow through the Cross Section = Fresh Water River Flow+Inflow in the Wedge
Q1 = Qr+QW
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Net Outflow through the Cross Section - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Net Outflow through the Cross Section is the volume flowing through that cross section.
Fresh Water River Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Fresh Water River Flow is the degree of mixing in an estuary and can be approximately related to the ratio between the volume of the tidal prism and the river flow.
Inflow in the Wedge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Inflow in the Wedge influencing the net outflow through the cross section.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Fresh Water River Flow: 5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Inflow in the Wedge: 45 Cubic Meter per Second --> 45 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Q1 = Qr+QW --> 5+45
Evaluating ... ...
Q1 = 50
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
50 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
50 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Net Outflow through the Cross Section
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Inflow and Outflow of Water?

Inflow is adding water to the different aspects of the hydrologic system. Consequently, outflow is the removal of water from the hydrological cycle. Inflow adds water to different aspects of the hydrologic cycle, returning water storage to an even level.

What is the definition of Salt Wedging?

Salt wedging in an estuary is the process by which a distinct layer of saltwater forms below a layer of freshwater due to differences in density. Salt wedging is the result of weak tidal currents that cannot mix the saltwater with the freshwater, thus creating a halocline.

How to Calculate Net Outflow through Cross-section?
