Consumptive Use Efficiency Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Consumptive Use Efficiency = (Normal Consumptive Use of Water/Water Depleted from Root Zone)*100
η_cu = (W_cu/W_d)*100
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Consumptive Use Efficiency - Consumptive use efficiency is the ratio of consumptive water use by the crop of irrigated farm and the irrigation water stored in the root zone of the soil on the farm.
Normal Consumptive Use of Water - (Measured in Centimeter) - Normal consumptive use of water is the portion of water with- drawn that is evaporated, transpired, incorporated into products or crops, consumed by humans or livestock.
Water Depleted from Root Zone - (Measured in Centimeter) - Water depleted from root zone is the water content in the root zone decreases as a result of water uptake by the crop.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Normal Consumptive Use of Water: 1.44 Centimeter --> 1.44 Centimeter No Conversion Required
Water Depleted from Root Zone: 28 Centimeter --> 28 Centimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

η_cu = (W_cu/W_d)*100 --> (1.44/28)*100

Evaluating ... ...

η_cu = 5.14285714285714

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5.14285714285714 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5.14285714285714 ≈ 5.142857 <-- Consumptive Use Efficiency

What is Efficiency in Irrigation?

Irrigation efficiency is defined as the ratio between the amount of water used to meet the consumptive use requirement of crop plus that necessary to maintain a favorable salt balance in the crop root zone to the total volume of water diverted, stored or pumped for irrigation.

What is Efficiency of Water Storage?

Reservoir storage efficiency is the ratio of the volume of irrigation water available from an irrigation reservoir to the volume of water delivered to the reservoir. This ratio is normally less than 1.0 because of seepage, evaporation, and transpiration losses

How to Calculate Consumptive Use Efficiency?

Consumptive Use Efficiency calculator uses Consumptive Use Efficiency = (Normal Consumptive Use of Water/Water Depleted from Root Zone)*100 to calculate the Consumptive Use Efficiency, The Consumptive Use Efficiency formula is defined as the ratio of consumptive water use by the crop of irrigated farm or project and the irrigation water stored in the root zone of the soil on the farm or the project area. Consumptive Use Efficiency is denoted by η_cu symbol.

How to calculate Consumptive Use Efficiency using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Consumptive Use Efficiency, enter Normal Consumptive Use of Water (W_cu) & Water Depleted from Root Zone (W_d) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Consumptive Use Efficiency calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.142857 = (0.0144/0.28)*100.

FAQ

What is Consumptive Use Efficiency?

The Consumptive Use Efficiency formula is defined as the ratio of consumptive water use by the crop of irrigated farm or project and the irrigation water stored in the root zone of the soil on the farm or the project area and is represented as η_cu = (W_cu/W_d)*100 or Consumptive Use Efficiency = (Normal Consumptive Use of Water/Water Depleted from Root Zone)*100. Normal consumptive use of water is the portion of water with- drawn that is evaporated, transpired, incorporated into products or crops, consumed by humans or livestock & Water depleted from root zone is the water content in the root zone decreases as a result of water uptake by the crop.

How to calculate Consumptive Use Efficiency?

The Consumptive Use Efficiency formula is defined as the ratio of consumptive water use by the crop of irrigated farm or project and the irrigation water stored in the root zone of the soil on the farm or the project area is calculated using Consumptive Use Efficiency = (Normal Consumptive Use of Water/Water Depleted from Root Zone)*100. To calculate Consumptive Use Efficiency, you need Normal Consumptive Use of Water (W_cu) & Water Depleted from Root Zone (W_d). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Normal Consumptive Use of Water & Water Depleted from Root Zone and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
