Rehbocks Formula for Discharge over Rectangular Weir Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Francis Discharge with Suppressed End = 2/3*(0.605+0.08*(Height of Water above Crest of Weir/Height of Crest)+(0.001/Height of Water above Crest of Weir))*sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity)*Length of Weir Crest*Height of Water above Crest of Weir^(3/2)
Q_Fr' = 2/3*(0.605+0.08*(S_w/h_Crest)+(0.001/S_w))*sqrt(2*g)*L_w*S_w^(3/2)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 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

Francis Discharge with Suppressed End - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Francis Discharge with Suppressed End is discharge of flow without the end contraction.
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.
Height of Crest - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Crest is the distance between the lowest and highest points of Crest.
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.
Length of Weir Crest - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Weir Crest is the measurement or extent of Weir Crest from end to end.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Height of Water above Crest of Weir: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required
Height of Crest: 12 Meter --> 12 Meter No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Length of Weir Crest: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_Fr' = 2/3*(0.605+0.08*(S_w/h_Crest)+(0.001/S_w))*sqrt(2*g)*L_w*S_w^(3/2) --> 2/3*(0.605+0.08*(2/12)+(0.001/2))*sqrt(2*9.8)*3*2^(3/2)

Evaluating ... ...

Q_Fr' = 15.4980380808525

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

15.4980380808525 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

15.4980380808525 ≈ 15.49804 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Francis Discharge with Suppressed End
