RESULT Open Channel

The document contains results from experiments measuring flow over two types of weirs: 1. A V-shaped weir with an enclosed angle of 90 degrees. Discharge was measured over a range of heads from 0.045-0.025 m. The discharge coefficient Cd was calculated and ranged from 0.834-1.276. 2. A rectangular weir with a width of 0.03 m. Flow was measured at heads of 0.061-0.041 m. Cd was computed and varied from 0.643-0.702. Theoretical discharge was determined and compared to measured values to derive the discharge coefficient for each experimental run.
