Head above Crest given Discharge over Ogee Spillway Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Head of Water = (Discharge over Ogee Spillway/(Coefficient of Spillway*Spillways Length))^(2/3)
HWater = (Q/(Cs*LSpillways))^(2/3)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Head of Water - (Measured in Meter) - Head of Water is defined as the height of water columns.
Discharge over Ogee Spillway - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge over Ogee Spillway is the fluid flowing per second through a channel or section of a pipe.
Coefficient of Spillway - Coefficient of spillway can be described as the coefficient factor of a spillway obtained from caliberation.
Spillways Length - (Measured in Meter) - Spillways Length refers to the distance over which water is channeled or released to prevent overflow or flooding.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Discharge over Ogee Spillway: 4 Cubic Meter per Second --> 4 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Spillway: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Spillways Length: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
HWater = (Q/(Cs*LSpillways))^(2/3) --> (4/(0.5*3))^(2/3)
Evaluating ... ...
HWater = 1.92299942707654
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.92299942707654 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.92299942707654 1.922999 Meter <-- Head of Water
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
