RATIOMETRIC<br />

If the flow calculation is to be ratiometric P702 = 2 the flow will be<br />

calculated using the formula: q= q cal C e /C ecal (h e /h ecal ) 1.5<br />

Where: q = flowrate<br />

q cal = flowrate at maximum head P705<br />

Ce = discharge coefficient calculated by <strong>FlowCERT</strong> LITE P723<br />

Ce cal = discharge coefficient at maximum head<br />

he = effective head<br />

he cal = effective head at maximum head<br />

BS 3680 V-Notch Weir<br />

ABSOLUTE<br />

If the flow calculation is to be absolute P702 = 1 the flow will be calculated<br />

using the formula: q = C e 8/15tan(theta/2)(2gn) 0.5 h 2.5<br />

Where: q = flowrate<br />

Ce = discharge coefficient calculated by <strong>FlowCERT</strong> LITE P723<br />

theta = v-notch angle<br />

gn = gravitational acceleration (nominal value = 980.66 cm/s 2 )<br />

h = head<br />

<strong>FlowCERT</strong> LITE presets the angle (theta) on selection of the chosen device<br />

this angle is 90 degrees for a BS 3680 full 90 degree V notch weir, 53<br />

degrees 8 minutes in the case of the BS3680 half 90 degree V notch weir<br />

and 28 degree 4 minutes in the case of the BS3680 quarter 90 degree V<br />

notch<br />

RATIOMETRIC<br />

If the flow calculation is to be ratiometric P702 = 2 the flow will be<br />

calculated using the formula: q = q cal C e (h)/C e (h cal )(h/h cal ) 2.5<br />

Where: q = flowrate<br />

q cal = flowrate at maximum head P705<br />

Ce(h) = discharge coeffecient for head<br />

Ce(h cal ) = discharge coefficient for maximum head<br />

h = head<br />

= maximum head P704<br />
