Equation for Suspended Sediment Load Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Suspended Sediment Load = Soil Erodibility Factor*(Stream Discharge^Constant n)
Qs = K*(Q^n)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Suspended Sediment Load - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Suspended Sediment Load at the stations.
Soil Erodibility Factor - Soil Erodibility Factor is the intrinsic susceptibility of a soil to erosion by runoff and raindrop impact.
Stream Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Stream discharge is the volumetric flow rate of water that is transported through a given cross-sectional area.
Constant n - Constant n is for the catchment to be determined by the effective rainfall of the catchment.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Soil Erodibility Factor: 0.17 --> No Conversion Required
Stream Discharge: 2.5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 2.5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Constant n: 3 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Qs = K*(Q^n) --> 0.17*(2.5^3)
Evaluating ... ...
Qs = 2.65625
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2.65625 Kilogram per Second -->229.5 Ton (metric) per Day (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
229.5 Ton (metric) per Day <-- Suspended Sediment Load
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
