Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Inlet Time = Time of Concentration-Channel Flow Time
T_i = t_c-T_m/f
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Inlet Time - (Measured in Second) - Inlet Time is the time taken by water to flow overland.
Time of Concentration - (Measured in Second) - Time of Concentration is a concept used in hydrology to measure the response of a watershed to a rain event.
Channel Flow Time - (Measured in Second) - Channel Flow Time is the time taken by water to flow in the drain channel.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Time of Concentration: 114.22 Minute --> 6853.2 Second (Check conversion here)
Channel Flow Time: 19.44 Minute --> 1166.4 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_i = t_c-T_m/f --> 6853.2-1166.4

Evaluating ... ...

T_i = 5686.8

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5686.8 Second -->94.78 Minute (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

94.78 Minute <-- Inlet Time

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Length of Overland Flow given Inlet Time

Go Length of Overland Flow = (((Inlet Time)^(1/0.385)*Fall of level)/0.885)^(1/3)

Total Fall of Level from Critical Point to Mouth of Drain given Inlet Time

Go Fall of level = (Length of Overland Flow)^3/((Inlet Time)^(1/0.385)/0.885)

Inlet Time or Time of Equilibrium

Go Inlet Time = (0.885*((Length of Overland Flow)^3/Fall of level))^0.385

Channel Flow Time given Total Time of Concentration

Go Channel Flow Time = Time of Concentration-Inlet Time

Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration

Go Inlet Time = Time of Concentration-Channel Flow Time

Total Time of Concentration

Go Time of Concentration = Inlet Time+Channel Flow Time

Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration Formula

Inlet Time = Time of Concentration-Channel Flow Time
T_i = t_c-T_m/f

What is Inlet Time?

The time required for the rain in falling on the most remote point of the tributary area to flow across the ground surface along the natural drains or gutters up to inlet of sewer is called inlet time .

How to Calculate Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration?

Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration calculator uses Inlet Time = Time of Concentration-Channel Flow Time to calculate the Inlet Time, The Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration is defined as The time required for the rain in falling on the most remote point of the tributary area. Inlet Time is denoted by T_i symbol.

How to calculate Inlet Time given Total Time of Concentration using this online calculator?
