flow_depth_weir: Flow Depth At Weir Crest

In hydReng: Hydraulic Engineering Tools

Flow Depth At Weir Crest

Description

Calculates the height difference between the upstream water level and the weir crest.

Usage

flow_depth_weir(B, Q, w = Inf, mu = 0.73)

Arguments

B	Width of the weir [m].
Q	Flow rate [m3/s].
w	Height of the weir crest (upstream) [m]. If w = Inf, the upstream velocity is considered 0.
mu	Discharge coefficient [-]. Default is 0.73.

Value

A list with the following components:

h

Flow depth over the weir [m].

v

Flow velocity [m/s].

Examples

flow_depth_weir(B = 3, Q = 5)
flow_depth_weir(B = 3, Q = 5, w = 1)
