This includes through a storm sewer system that enters waters of the state (See Separate Sewer System picture on next page), a ditch or other conveyance.
How to Calculate Proportionate Discharge given Area of Cross-Section?
Proportionate Discharge given Area of Cross-Section calculator uses Proportionate discharge = (Velocity while running partially full*Area of Partially Full Sewers)/(Velocity While Running Full*Area of Running Full Sewers) to calculate the Proportionate discharge, The Proportionate Discharge given Area of Cross-Section calculates the proportionate discharge when we have prior information of other parameters. Proportionate discharge is denoted by Pq symbol.
How to calculate Proportionate Discharge given Area of Cross-Section using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Proportionate Discharge given Area of Cross-Section, enter Velocity while running partially full (v), Area of Partially Full Sewers (a), Velocity While Running Full (V) & Area of Running Full Sewers (A) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Proportionate Discharge given Area of Cross-Section calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.42152 = (2*3.8)/(6.01*area_while_running_full).
