Total Discharge for Whole Notch or Weir Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total discharge = 2/3*Coefficient of Discharge*Length of Notch or Weir*sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity)*Head of Water Over the Crest^(3/2)
Q = 2/3*C_d*L*sqrt(2*g)*H^(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

Total discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Total discharge is defined as a measure of the quantity of any fluid flow over unit time. The quantity may be either volume or mass.
Coefficient of Discharge - Coefficient of Discharge is ratio of actual discharge to theoretical discharge.
Length of Notch or Weir - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Notch or Weir is defined as the measurement of the physical quantity of distance.
Acceleration due to Gravity - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration due to Gravity is acceleration gained by an object because of gravitational force.
Head of Water Over the Crest - (Measured in Meter) - Head of Water Over the Crest is defined as the depth water flowing over the weir crest measured at some point in the weir pond.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Coefficient of Discharge: 0.66 --> No Conversion Required
Length of Notch or Weir: 0.6 Meter --> 0.6 Meter No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Head of Water Over the Crest: 4 Meter --> 4 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q = 2/3*C_d*L*sqrt(2*g)*H^(3/2) --> 2/3*0.66*0.6*sqrt(2*9.8)*4^(3/2)

Evaluating ... ...

Q = 9.35022258558586

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.35022258558586 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9.35022258558586 ≈ 9.350223 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Total discharge

What is a total discharge?

A discharge is a measure of the quantity of any fluid flow over unit time. ... Here the discharge might be 1 litre per 15 seconds, equivalent to 67 ml/second or 4 litres/minute. This is an average measure. For measuring the discharge of a river we need a different method and the most common is the 'area-velocity' method.

How do you calculate discharge?

Discharge is the volume of water moving down a waterway per unit of time. It is most commonly expressed in cubic feet per seconds or gallons per day. To calculate discharge, multiply the area of water in a channel cross section by the average velocity of water in that cross section.
