Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Depth = Environmental Discharge/Constant
D = Qe/x
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.
Environmental Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Environmental Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Constant - Constant which depend upon southern pine and other species.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Environmental Discharge: 40 Cubic Meter per Second --> 40 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Constant: 10 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
D = Qe/x --> 40/10
Evaluating ... ...
D = 4
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
4 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
4 Meter <-- Depth
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section Formula

Depth = Environmental Discharge/Constant
D = Qe/x

What is discharge ?

The amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge. If v is the mean velocity and A is the cross sectional area, the discharge Q is defined by Q = Av which is known as volume flow rate. Discharge is also expressed as mass flow rate and weight flow rate.

How to Calculate Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section?

Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section calculator uses Depth = Environmental Discharge/Constant to calculate the Depth, Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section calculates depth when we have prior information of discharge . Depth is denoted by D symbol.

How to calculate Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section, enter Environmental Discharge (Qe) & Constant (x) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Depth given Discharge for Rectangular Channel Section calculation can be explained with given input values -> 4 = 40/10.
