STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Average Velocity in Vertical = Constant a*Revolutions per Second of Meter+Constant b
v = a*Ns+b
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Average Velocity in Vertical - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Average Velocity in Vertical is the rate at which the water flows in any stream or water body.
Constant a - Constant a as an adjective may refer to non-variance; as a noun, it has two different meanings: A fixed and well-defined number or other non-varying mathematical object.
Revolutions per Second of Meter - Revolutions Per Second of Meter placed at the Instrument Station.
Constant b - Constant b as an adjective may refer to non-variance; as a noun, it has two different meanings: A fixed and well-defined number or other non-varying mathematical object.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Constant a: 0.6 --> No Conversion Required
Revolutions per Second of Meter: 33 --> No Conversion Required
Constant b: 0.8 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
v = a*Ns+b --> 0.6*33+0.8
Evaluating ... ...
v = 20.6
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
20.6 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
20.6 Meter per Second <-- Average Velocity in Vertical
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Average Velocity in Moderately Deep Streams
Go Average Velocity in Vertical = (Velocity at 0.2 Times Depth of Flow+Velocity at 0.8 Times Depth of Flow)/2
Depth of Flow at Vertical given Sounding Weights
Go Depth of Flow in Vertical = Minimum Weight/(50*Average Velocity in Vertical)
Average Stream Velocity given Minimum Weight
Go Average Velocity in Vertical = Minimum Weight/(50*Depth of Flow in Vertical)
Sounding Weights
Go Minimum Weight = 50*Average Velocity in Vertical*Depth of Flow in Vertical
Average Velocity obtained by using Reduction Factor
Go Average Velocity in Vertical = Reduction Factor*Surface Velocity of River
Surface Velocity given Average of Velocity
Go Surface Velocity of River = Average Velocity in Vertical/Reduction Factor
Time of Distance Travelled given Surface Velocity
Go Time Taken to Travel = Distance Travelled/Surface Velocity of River
Distance Travelled given Surface Velocity
Go Distance Travelled = Surface Velocity of River*Time Taken to Travel
Surface Velocity
Go Surface Velocity of River = Distance Travelled/Time Taken to Travel

Stream Velocity at Instrument Location Formula

Average Velocity in Vertical = Constant a*Revolutions per Second of Meter+Constant b
v = a*Ns+b

What is Stream Velocity?

Stream Velocity is important because of its impact on water quality and on the living organisms and habitats in the stream. Stream Velocity increases as the volume of the water in the stream increases, determines the kinds of organisms that can live in the stream (some need fast-flowing areas; others need quiet pools).

How to Calculate Stream Velocity at Instrument Location?

Stream Velocity at Instrument Location calculator uses Average Velocity in Vertical = Constant a*Revolutions per Second of Meter+Constant b to calculate the Average Velocity in Vertical, The Stream Velocity at Instrument Location formula is defined as the speed of the water in the stream, and it is the greatest in midstream near the surface and is slowest along the stream bed and banks due to friction. Average Velocity in Vertical is denoted by v symbol.

How to calculate Stream Velocity at Instrument Location using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Stream Velocity at Instrument Location, enter Constant a (a), Revolutions per Second of Meter (Ns) & Constant b (b) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Stream Velocity at Instrument Location calculation can be explained with given input values -> 20.6 = 0.6*33+0.8.

FAQ

What is Stream Velocity at Instrument Location?
