What is Coefficient of Discharge?

Discharge Coefficient is the ratio of actual discharge through a nozzle or orifice to the theoretical discharge.

What is a weir?

A weir or low head dam is a barrier across the width of a river that alters the flow characteristics of water and usually results in a change in the height of the river level. They are also used to control the flow of water for outlets of lakes, ponds, and reservoirs.
