Volume of rainfall Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall
V = A*d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Rainfall - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Rainfall over a catchment area.
Area of Accumulated Rain - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of accumulated rain over a specified catchment.
Depth of Rainfall - (Measured in Centimeter) - Depth of Rainfall over a specified Catchment is the measure of accumulated precipitation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of Accumulated Rain: 25 Square Meter --> 25 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Rainfall: 20 Millimeter --> 2 Centimeter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V = A*d --> 25*2

Evaluating ... ...

V = 50

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

50 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

50 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Rainfall

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Total Runoff over Catchment

Go Runoff Volume = Surface Runoff+Interflow+Baseflow+Channel Precipitation

Correction Ratio in Test for Consistency of Record

Go Correction Ratio = Corrected Slope of Double-Mass Curve/Original Slope of Double-Mass Curve

Depth of rainfall given volume of rainfall

Go Depth of Rainfall = Volume of Rainfall/Area of Accumulated Rain

Volume of rainfall

Go Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall

Dredge or Burge Formula

Go Peak Discharge = 19.6*Catchment Area/(Length of Basin)^(2/3)

Volume of rainfall Formula

Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall
V = A*d

What is Catchment Area?

A catchment area is the area from which rainfall flows into a river, lake, or reservoir. The catchment area is the first point of contact for rainfall. For the vast majority of tank-based rainwater harvesting systems, the catchment area is the roof surface. Each drop of precipitation that falls into a catchment area eventually ends up in the same river going to the sea if it doesn't evaporate.

What is Total Runoff & Amount of Rainfall?

The total runoff is equal to the total precipitation less the losses caused by evapotranspiration (loss to the atmosphere from soil surfaces and plant leaves), storage (as in temporary ponds), and other such abstractions.
The amount of rainfall is usually given as a depth over a specified area, assuming that all the rainfall accumulates over the surface and the unit for measuring the amount of rainfall.

How to Calculate Volume of rainfall?

Volume of rainfall calculator uses Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall to calculate the Volume of Rainfall, The Volume of rainfall is defined as the product of area of the accumulated rainfall over a specified catchment and the depth of rainfall. Volume of Rainfall is denoted by V symbol.

How to calculate Volume of rainfall using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Volume of rainfall, enter Area of Accumulated Rain (A) & Depth of Rainfall (d) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Volume of rainfall calculation can be explained with given input values -> 50 = 25*0.02.

FAQ

What is Volume of rainfall?

The Volume of rainfall is defined as the product of area of the accumulated rainfall over a specified catchment and the depth of rainfall and is represented as V = A*d or Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall. Area of accumulated rain over a specified catchment & Depth of Rainfall over a specified Catchment is the measure of accumulated precipitation.

How to calculate Volume of rainfall?

The Volume of rainfall is defined as the product of area of the accumulated rainfall over a specified catchment and the depth of rainfall is calculated using Volume of Rainfall = Area of Accumulated Rain*Depth of Rainfall. To calculate Volume of rainfall, you need Area of Accumulated Rain (A) & Depth of Rainfall (d). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Area of Accumulated Rain & Depth of Rainfall and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
