Depth of Flow at Inlet given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth up to 4.8in Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Depth of flow at Inlet = (Water Flow/(3*Perimeter of grate opening))^(2/3)
y = (Q/(3*P))^(2/3)
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Depth of flow at Inlet - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow at Inlet is the flow length at the inlet.
Water Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Water Flow is rate of flow of water.
Perimeter of grate opening - (Measured in Meter) - Perimeter of grate opening is the length of the circumference of grate opening over which water may flow.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Water Flow: 1.8 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.8 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Perimeter of grate opening: 5 Foot --> 1.5240000000061 Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
y = (Q/(3*P))^(2/3) --> (1.8/(3*1.5240000000061))^(2/3)
Evaluating ... ...
y = 0.537168893605884
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.537168893605884 Meter -->1.7623651364952 Foot (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
1.7623651364952 1.762365 Foot <-- Depth of flow at Inlet
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Depth of Flow at Inlet when Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter Flow is Giiven
Go Depth of flow at Inlet = ((Quantity of Runoff/(0.7*Length of Opening))^(2/3))-Depression in Curb Inlet
Depression in Curb Inlet given Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter flow
Go Depression in Curb Inlet = ((Quantity of Runoff/(0.7*Length of Opening))^(2/3))-Depth of flow at Inlet
Length of Opening given Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter Flow
Go Length of Opening = Quantity of Runoff/(0.7*(Depression in Curb Inlet+Depth of flow at Inlet)^(3/2))
Runoff Quantity with Full Gutter Flow
Go Quantity of Runoff = 0.7*Length of Opening*(Depression in Curb Inlet+Depth of flow at Inlet)^(3/2)
Depth of Flow given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in
Go Depth = ((Inlet Capacity/(0.6*Area))^2)*(1/(2*Acceleration due to Gravity))
Area of Opening given Inlet Capacity for Flow Depth more than 1ft 5in
Go Area = Inlet Capacity/(0.6*(2*Acceleration due to Gravity*Depth)^(1/2))
