Area of Cross-Section given Discharge Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Area of cross-section of pipe = Discharge when pipe is running full/Velocity while running full
A = Q/V
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Area of cross-section of pipe - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of cross-section of pipe while running full.
Discharge when pipe is running full - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge when pipe is running full means water is flowing through the whole cross-section of pipe.
Velocity while running full - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity while running full means when velocity of water through pipe while running full.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge when pipe is running full: 5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Velocity while running full: 10 Meter per Second --> 10 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = Q/V --> 5/10

Evaluating ... ...

A = 0.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.5 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.5 Square Meter <-- Area of cross-section of pipe

Diameter of pipe given Area of Cross-section

Go Diameter of Pipe = (Area of cross-section/(pi/4)*((Angle/(360*pi/180))-(sin(Angle)/2*pi)))^(1/2)

Diameter of Pipe using Hydraulic Mean Depth

Go Diameter of Pipe = Hydraulic mean depth/((1/4)*(1-(((360*pi/180)*sin(Central Angle))/(2*pi*Central Angle))))

Hydraulic Mean Depth using Central Angle

Go Hydraulic mean depth = (Diameter of Pipe/4)*(1-(((360*pi/180)*sin(Central Angle))/(2*pi*Central Angle)))

Velocity while Running Full given Discharge

Go Velocity while running full = Discharge when pipe is running full/Area of cross-section of pipe

Area of Cross-Section given Discharge

Go Area of cross-section of pipe = Discharge when pipe is running full/Velocity while running full

Discharge when Pipe is Running Full

Go Discharge when pipe is running full = Velocity while running full*Area of cross-section of pipe

Area of Cross-Section given Discharge Formula

Area of cross-section of pipe = Discharge when pipe is running full/Velocity while running full
A = Q/V

What is discharge ?

Discharge is the volumetric flow rate of water that is transported through a given cross-sectional area.
