Reference

ABSOLUTE CALCULATION, P4 = 0¤

 

For flows that can be calculated by the equation:

 

q = (2/3)1.5 x g0.5 x Cv x Cs x Cd x B x h1.5

 

where : q = flow rate

Cv = velocity coefficient

b = throat width

Cs = shape coefficient

g = gravitational acceleration

Cd = discharge coefficient

h = head

 

RATIOMETRIC CALCULATION, P4 = 1¤

 

For flows that can be calculated by the equation:

 

q = qcal x Cd/Cdcal x Cv/Cvcal x (h/hcal)1.5

 

where : q = flow rate

qcal = flow rate at maximum head h = head

hcal = maximum head Cv = velocity coefficient

Cvcal = velocity coefficient for maximum head

Cd = discharge coefficient for head

Cdcal = discharge coefficient for maximum head
