Number of Equipotential Drops of Net given Quantity of Seepage in Length of Dam Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Equipotential Lines = (Coefficient of Permeability of Soil*Number of Beds*Loss of Head*Length of Dam)/Quantity of Seepage
N = (k*B*H_L*L)/Q
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Equipotential Lines - Equipotential Lines is defined as the number of lines with same potential drop.
Coefficient of Permeability of Soil - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Coefficient of Permeability of Soil describes how easily a liquid will move through the soil.
Number of Beds - The Number of Beds is defined as the number of beds between each of the same potential drops.
Loss of Head - (Measured in Meter) - The Loss of head due to sudden enlargement turbulent eddies are formed at the corner of the enlargement of the pipe section.
Length of Dam - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Dam is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Quantity of Seepage - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Quantity of Seepage is the movement of water in soils or the ground.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Coefficient of Permeability of Soil: 10 Centimeter per Second --> 0.1 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Number of Beds: 2 --> No Conversion Required
Loss of Head: 6.6 Meter --> 6.6 Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Dam: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Quantity of Seepage: 0.95 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.95 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N = (k*B*H_L*L)/Q --> (0.1*2*6.6*3)/0.95

Evaluating ... ...

N = 4.16842105263158

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.16842105263158 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.16842105263158 ≈ 4.168421 <-- Equipotential Lines
