Width of Channel given Velocity Approach Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width of Channel1 = Discharge by Approach Velocity/(Velocity of Flow 1*Depth of Flow)
b = Q'/(v*d_f)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Width of Channel1 - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Channel1 is the width of Notch and weir.
Discharge by Approach Velocity - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge by Approach Velocity is the volumetric flow rate (in m 3 /h or ft 3 /h) of water transported through a given cross-sectional area.
Velocity of Flow 1 - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Flow 1 is the flow of water over the channel.
Depth of Flow - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow is the distance from the top or surface of the flow to the bottom of a channel or other waterway or Depth of Flow at the Vertical while measuring Sound Weights.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge by Approach Velocity: 153 Cubic Meter per Second --> 153 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Velocity of Flow 1: 15.1 Meter per Second --> 15.1 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Depth of Flow: 3.3 Meter --> 3.3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

b = Q'/(v*d_f) --> 153/(15.1*3.3)

Evaluating ... ...

b = 3.07043949428055

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.07043949428055 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.07043949428055 ≈ 3.070439 Meter <-- Width of Channel1

Coefficient of Discharge given Discharge if Velocity considered

LaTeX Go Coefficient of Discharge = (Francis Discharge*3)/(2*(sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity))*(Length of Weir Crest-0.1*Number of End Contraction*Still Water Head)*(Still Water Head^(3/2)-Velocity Head^(3/2)))

Coefficient of Discharge given Discharge if Velocity not considered

LaTeX Go Coefficient of Discharge = (Francis Discharge*3)/(2*(sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity))*(Length of Weir Crest-0.1*Number of End Contraction*Height of Water above Crest of Weir)*Height of Water above Crest of Weir^(3/2))

Coefficient of Discharge given Discharge Passing over Weir considering Velocity

LaTeX Go Coefficient of Discharge = (Francis Discharge with Suppressed End*3)/(2*(sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity))*Length of Weir Crest*((Height of Water above Crest of Weir+Velocity Head)^(3/2)-Velocity Head^(3/2)))

Coefficient of Discharge given Discharge over Weir without considering Velocity

LaTeX Go Coefficient of Discharge = (Francis Discharge with Suppressed End*3)/(2*(sqrt(2*Acceleration due to Gravity))*Length of Weir Crest*Height of Water above Crest of Weir^(3/2))
