Waterfall Flow Rate Calculator

Waterfall Flow Rate Calculator calculator can be used to calculate the flow rate of a waterfall based on its width, height, and water velocity. This is useful for hydrological studies, irrigation planning, and aesthetic water feature design.

Input Parameters

Calculation Results

Calculation Formula

Flow Rate (Q) = Area (A) × Velocity (V)

Where:
- Area (A) = Width × Height
- Velocity (V) = Speed of water flow
- Flow Rate (Q) = Volume of water flowing per second

Waterfall Flow Rate Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Waterfall Flow Rate Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the width of the waterfall in meters.
  2. Enter the height of the waterfall in meters.
  3. Enter the velocity of the water flow in meters per second.
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the flow rate.
  5. The flow rate will be displayed in cubic meters per second (m³/s).

Principle of Calculation

The calculator uses the formula Q = A × V, where:

  • Q is the flow rate in cubic meters per second (m³/s).
  • A is the cross-sectional area of the waterfall in square meters (m²), calculated as width × height.
  • V is the velocity of the water flow in meters per second (m/s).

Applications

This calculator is useful for:

  • Hydrological studies to understand water flow in natural waterfalls.
  • Irrigation planning to determine water requirements for agricultural use.
  • Designing aesthetic water features such as fountains and cascades.
  • Environmental impact assessments related to water bodies.
