ABSOLUTE CALCULATION, P4 = 0¤ |
|
For flows that can be calculated by the equation: |
|
q = Ce x 8/15 x tan(α/2) x (2g)0.5 x h2.5 |
|
where : q = flow rate | h = head |
g = gravitational acceleration | Ce = function of h and α |
α= notch angle alpha◊
◊angle is restricted to 90°, 53.133° or 28.066°. Otherwise use ratiometric calculation.
RATIOMETRIC CALCULATION, P4 = 1¤
For flows that can be calculated by the equation:
q = qcal x Ce/Cecal x (h/hcal)2.5
where : q = flow rate
qcal = flow rate at maximum head h = head
hcal = maximum head
Ce = discharge coefficient for head
Cecal = discharge coefficient for maximum head
