In what unit of measurement is discharge usually measured when referring to water flow

History
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
5 0
The discharge<span> of a stream is the product of its velocity </span><span>(V </span>- length of travel per unit of time such as feet/second) times depth of the water (D<span> - unit of length) times width (</span>W of the water<span>- units of length). (Make sure all all three lengths are expressed in the same unit.)</span><span><span>
Discharge = V x D x W</span>If length is measured in feet and time in seconds, Discharge has units of <span>feet3/sec</span> or cubic feet per second (cfs).Depth times Width gives the cross-sectional area. The shape of the channel is important because of the reduction in velocity due to friction along the channel margins. In a natural situation, an increase in discharge (cubic feet/second) will result in an increase in all three parameters - the river becomes wider, deeper and flows at a higher velocity.</span>
