Flood Calculation

The document provides calculations to determine flow rate (Q) in cubic feet per second (cusec) for a spillway using an equation that considers length (L) and height (H). It applies the equation twice, first with a height of 1 foot and length of 23.70 feet, resulting in a flow of 78.21 cusec for 7 spills or 547.47 cusec total. The second uses a height of 4 feet, giving a flow of 625.68 cusec for each of 7 spills and a total of 4379.76 cusec.

Used Equation = 3.3 x L x H1.

H =1’, L = 23.70’ , No of Spills = 7

Q = 3.3 x 23.70 x 11.5

Q = 78.21 cusec x 7

Q = 547.47 Cusec

H = 4.0’, L = 23.70’ , No of Spills = 7

Q = 3.3 x 23.70 x 41.5

Q = 625.68 cusec x 7

Q = 4379.76 Cusec
