    The document describes an experiment to study the use of weirs to measure flow rate. Three weir geometries - rectangular, triangular, and combination - will be tested. Discharge coefficients will be determined for each shape by measuring the flow rate using equations provided and estimating coefficients. The weir with the lowest energy loss will be identified.
