ABSOLUTE CALCULATION, P4 = 0¤
For flows that can be calculated by the equation:
q = 1/1000 x (b + mh) x v
m = (B - b)/d
where : q = flow rate, l/sec
B = channel top width, cm
b = channel bottom width, cm d = depth of channel, cm
h = head, cm
v = flow velocity, cm/sec
RATIOMETRIC CALCULATION, P4 = 1¤
For flows that can be calculated by the equation:
q = qcal x A/Acal x v/vcal
A = (b + mh) x h
Acal = (b + mhcal) x hcal
m = (B - b)/d
where : q = flow rate, l/sec
B = channel top width, cm
b = channel bottom width, cm d = depth of channel, cm
h = head, cm
v = flow velocity, cm/sec
