Theory: - Notch is a device used for measuring the flow rate through a small tank or

channel, opening is below/ top edge of the opening tank or channel.


Instruments:(1) Notch apparatus
(2) Piezometer tube
(3) Stop watch & Scale
RECTANGULAR NOTCH :- The discharge over a rectangular notch is given by
Q = 2/3 Cd L2g H3/2
In the above equation for a given notch 2/3 Cd L2g is constant & is denoted by K
K

=
Cd

2/3 CdL2g
3K
2L 2g
Co-efficient of Discharge = Cd.
& Now Q = K. H3/2

(1) Graphically it in determined

Q=

K.Hn

Taking logarithm on both side

Q=

K.Hn

Log Q = Log K+Log H


Then draw a graph of log Q v/s Log H
