Constant used in FPS Unit given Flood Discharge by Fanning's Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Constant FPS = Discharge in cusecs/(Area of Basin)^(5/6)
C₁ = Q₁/(A₁)^(5/6)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Constant FPS - Constant FPS unit is used and depend upon catchment.
Discharge in cusecs - (Measured in Cubic Foot per Second) - Discharge in cusecs is defined as the volumetric flow rate in F.P.S unit.
Area of Basin - (Measured in Square Mile (US Survey)) - Area of Basin which is also known as catchment area.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge in cusecs: 5 Cubic Foot per Second --> 5 Cubic Foot per Second No Conversion Required
Area of Basin: 2 Square Mile --> 1.99999168139105 Square Mile (US Survey) (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C₁ = Q₁/(A₁)^(5/6) --> 5/(1.99999168139105)^(5/6)

Evaluating ... ...

C₁ = 2.80616484718848

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.80616484718848 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.80616484718848 ≈ 2.806165 <-- Constant FPS

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
