• Q = CLHm
C-coefficient dependent on the nature of the
crest and approach conditions. Found through
calibration.
L- Length of the crest
H- Head over the crest
m - exponent depending on the weir opening
Rectangular Weirs
• Suppressed:
Q = 0.0184LH3/2
Q – discharge litressec-1
L – length of crest (cm)
H – Head over the crest (cm)
• Contracted(both ends contracted):
Q = 0.0184 (L-0.2H)H3/2
