Flow through hole in base or small pipe aperture

Aperture diameter (mm): d

Water "head" above aperture (mm): H
Shape of opening: Sharp aperture Rounded aperture
Discharge coefficient*: Cd 0.6014 0.9409
Area of apperture (m²): A
Volume of outlet flow (l/h): Q
*Discharge coefficient = 0.6014 for sharp edged apertures and 0.9409 for well
rounded apertures - use figures between these for not-so-rounded edges.

Flow over weir

Weir width (mm): b

Water "head" above weir (mm): H
Shape of weir top: Sharp edges Rounded edges
Discharge coefficient*: Cd 0.6014 0.9409
Area of apperture (m²): A 0.00000 0.00000
Volume of outlet flow (l/h): Q 0 0
*Discharge coefficient = 0.6014 for sharp edges and 0.9409 for well rounded edges
- use figures between these for not-so-rounded edges.

Flow in rectangular channel (Manning)

Channel width (mm): b

Water height in channel (mm): y
Channel slope: (mm/m)* S
Channel area (m²): A 0
Wetted perimeter (m²): P 0
Manning's "n" value: n 0.009
Flow volume (liters/hour) = Q
Velocity (m/s) V

*Use figure of 0.1 if there is no slope to the "channel"
