U0 = exponent U1 = k factor P4 = 0 only | Siemens 7ML19985AB01

SIMPLE EXPONENTIAL DEVICES, P3 = 0

‘U’ parameters required *

U0 = exponent

U1 = k factor (P4 = 0 only)

Typical Exponential Devices:

»Sutro (proportional) weir

»head measurement only

»Rectangular (suppressed) or Trapezoidal (Cipolletti) weir

»Kahfagi venturi

»Parshall flume

»Leopold Lagco

»Triangular (V-notch) weir

*obtain from manufacturer’s specifications.

Reference

ABSOLUTE CALCULATION, P4 = 0¤

For flows that can be calculated by the equation:

q = k hx

where	q = flowrate	x = exponent (U0)
	k = constant factor (U1)	h = head

RATIOMETRIC CALCULATION, P4 = 1¤

For flows that can be calculated by the equation:

q = qcal (h/hcal)x

where q = flowrate	qcal = flowrate at maximum head
h = head	hcal = maximum head
x = exponent (U0)

Refer to manufacturers specifications for the exponent value.

¤Refer to Operation \ Flow Calculation.
